MSI has long had a rather solid UEFI BIOS implementation on all their board products, but this time around, things are a bit different from what they have been in the past. We are greeted by a very simple interface at first, with the more "traditional" MSI BIOS for those who need more than the initial screens provide making its appearance after a button has been pushed. Overclocking options are quite robust, and given this product's price range, exceed expectations. Although not a $500 board, I can't help but be a bit impressed by how well every little part of the board works to ensure your experience with the MSI Z170A GAMING PRO leaves you feeling all warm inside.
