The “EVERYTHING” motherboard (Incl ATX power supply, 250Gb HDD, DVD R/W and NOW IN A CRAPPY CASE - ("crappy" just because it's an older-style WHITE case) everything has been tested and is working properly)! Yes, it’s a little dated, but it has EVERYTHING you might want to connect to it! It was designed as one of the top MSI gaming motherboards in its day with heat sinks on all major chips, Industrial capacitors - not standard caps that leak (literally and figuratively) and cause motherboards to fail. This motherboard comes READY-TO-RUN with an Intel Quad-Core CPU, 8Gb of memory and has a Windows-10 Professional Digital License assigned to it! The motherboard was the basis for my little-used “Test” (Sand-Box) PC and has never been repaired or modified – everything is factory original and even includes the original I/O Shield (panel – see pics). It is very 'spunky' when you set up an SSD drive (I have a 240Gb SSD "test" drive w/ Win 10) and with the included Intel Quad-Core CPU, it is comparable to an Intel Core-i5 @ 2.3Ghz!
