- The cover of the I / O panel can not be removed without breaking the cable, 2 U.2 interfaces and can not be used simultaneously, MSI X99A Gaming Pro Carbon – modern motherboard for Broadwell-E processors, which can be recommended to enthusiasts. Of course
- UEFI BIOS design, No metal backplate for the motherboard, Extended delay between Standby and Power on
