According to our motherboard expert
This motherboard only works with 8th and 9th generation Intel processors, with an 1151 socket.
The MSI Z370-A Pro is a motherboard for novice PC builders. Because this motherboard features the Intel Z370 chip set, it lets you build a system with an Intel Coffee Lake processor. The MSI software makes overclocking your processor easy, if you're looking to boost your computer's performance. The motherboard was designed to keep your computer from overheating. The reinforced PCIe slots on the motherboard won't even bend when you firmly push a video card into place. On top of that, the motherboard is also protected against static electricity, so any sparks caused by installing new components won't damage your hardware. It's easy to install multiple video cards for an improved graphics performance or for complex computations.

I like the product but the specifications are wrong. There is no thunderbold on it, but it does have a VGA port

Enough space to connect everything neatly

There is 1 problem during the installation, namely that the realtek nic does not work 100% during the installation of windows 10. After the installation, windows finds that everything is good but no bit comes through. After the DVD setup the nic works 100% and is pretty fast too. With the live update 6 app from msi, everything is also updated in no time.
Second problem is that after plugging in a graka the whole system doesn't boot cold - I had to do a cold boot + a reset and then the board boots through windows boot very fast (via ssd). I'm 100% sure that this is not the shelf or the graphics card but the combination of the whole (ram/cpu/graka/psu) but I think it's worth mentioning.
It comes with a lot of software - drivers - and the necessary msi related tools (overclocking stuff) and related extras that can also be downloaded via the internet.
