    Beautiful motherboard, with many features and extras, but it has a serious problem with the Realtek 2.5G network card it has. Specifically, while it operates normally, it suddenly loses connection and creates a problem for all other PCs or devices that happen to be connected to the same switch. Once you unplug the cable, it reconnects and functions normally.

    The issue has been mentioned in various forums and on Reddit, while a similar problem has also been reported on other motherboards from different manufacturers that use the same network card.

    Different drivers have been tried and the card's settings have been adjusted, but the issue remains unresolved. I had to purchase and add a separate network card in order to be able to use it.

    I hope that the V.2 version of the motherboard, which I see is being sold on skroutz, has resolved the problem.

    I have it in my possession for a short period of time to make an objective evaluation. However, it is a very good motherboard. Easy settings in the BIOS, either for overclocking or for the XMP of the memory that you may need to do. The cooler for the M.2 SSD is useful. It does not have a USB-C port that my case had a cable for, but personally, that doesn't bother me. It is definitely worth its money, around 120-130 euros.

    This metric is better!! I will tell you why with Version PRO there is not a big difference, only the cooler in NVM2, everything else is characterized the same!! You only pay 20 for the cooler!!
    Very good Vrm coolers do not heat up much, even in hot weather!!
    And without air conditioning in the room!!
    It has very good coolers, very heavy like the weight of the motherboard - because of the coolers they are thick!! Copper and in chipsets very big and good cooler!! The chipset does not heat up!!

    I recommend this motherboard with both hands!! The only one better than this is the sira aous master!! It has more amperes in vrm!!
    Anyway, for those who want a motherboard up to 180 and good, I recommend it!! But everything above 200 with wifi
