Hey everyone, I'm planning a fresh build and the only motherboard I've seen that fits my requirements is the MSI X670E ACE. If I wait for the 9950X3D chips to arrive, would this board still work? Should it handle heat and power well enough? I've been using Asus-only boards before, but with all the recent complaints about their customer service, I'm curious if switching to MSI would be a good move. Also, since I regularly update BIOS firmware, I want to know if this board would cause any issues.

You can save a lot on MB while maintaining performance for CPUs over 9950x. Just choose the appropriate option.

You also require Wi-Fi capability, multiple M.2 slots, and ARGB support for fan headers.

Requires at least 4 x 2.5" SSDs, PCIe x4 expansion, ample USB ports (excluding USB4), sufficient fan headers and ARGB ports.

This means I'm okay with this MB.

It confirms all the required slots, so yes—it uses a lot of space. The X670E ACE costs less if it fits your needs.
