    For its price (I got it for 180 about 8 months ago), I think it's one of the best available. It's not particularly beautiful but you can't call it ugly either. However, it has everything.

    - PCI Express Gen 5 for graphics card and SSD, so it's future proof.
    - Gen 4 the other slot and the other two are Gen 3, so 4 SSD hard drives.
    - Its VRMs, especially for the price, are excellent and can handle and overclock even the most powerful processors satisfactorily.
    - The VRM temperatures are also quite good.
    - G.Skill RAM works flawlessly at 6000MHz with one click and supports up to 8000MHz.
    - Good wifi and bluetooth, as every time I used them I had no problems.
    - It has plenty of fan and RGB headers, just check if the positions are convenient for your case.
    - I don't have experience with the new BIOS but compared to the old ones I found them just fine, I don't have high demands, I've only entered 3-4 times. Whatever I needed to find, I found except for one time when I wanted to disable direct storage.

    The specs (official site):

    Attention!!!
    There is a problem with some motherboards with AMD X3D but BIOS updates have been released. Search carefully to make sure the issue has been resolved first because I don't know the extent of the problem or what has been done.

    These are the most important things for me. I highly recommend it.

    Honest motherboard, several slots for NVMe (1 for 5th gen, 2-3 for 4th gen, not sure), a lot of USB ports (personally I don't need that many). The BIOS offers quite a bit of freedom but is more difficult to use than MSI. Personally, I haven't managed to update with instant flash, only with flashback, which if you're not sure about the drivers, can cause problems. The WiFi is excellent. With a conventional router, you don't need anything better. The ARGB slots are far from the pins for the fans, so keep that in mind. In fact, the rear one is below the graphics card, so I needed to do a bit of acrobatics to change it. As a build, it seems quite durable to me

    Beautiful, sleek, and functional. For those who have several SSDs to utilize, it has 4 ports and even one Gen 5. I work with a 9600X without any problems; I just had to do a BIOS update, and there is overclocking capability for those who are into that. Speaking of BIOS, it is easy and user-friendly, with the EXPO for the RAM working normally. Also, regarding software, for me, the program for the RGB and the one for fan control, etc., is just fine, although obviously, there are better apps out there that work for all PCs and give you more detailed control. Also, a detail, it comes with 2 SATA cables (which I needed for the 2 SATA SSDs I have), while other motherboards of the same or even more expensive price only provide 1.

    Beautiful, sleek, and functional. For those who have several SSDs to utilize, it has 4 ports and even one Gen 5. I work with a 9600X without any problems; I just had to do a BIOS update, and there is overclocking capability for those who are into that. Speaking of BIOS, it is easy and user-friendly, with the EXPO for the RAM working normally. Also, regarding software, for me, the program for the RGB and the one for fan control, etc., is just fine, although obviously, there are better apps out there that work for all PCs and give you more detailed control. Also, a detail, it comes with 2 SATA cables (which I needed for the 2 SATA SSDs I have), while other motherboards of the same or even more expensive price only provide 1.

    For its price (I got it for 180 about 8 months ago), I think it's one of the best available. It's not particularly beautiful but you can't call it ugly either. However, it has everything.

    - PCI Express Gen 5 for graphics card and SSD, so it's future proof.
    - Gen 4 the other slot and the other two are Gen 3, so 4 SSD hard drives.
    - Its VRMs, especially for the price, are excellent and can handle and overclock even the most powerful processors satisfactorily.
    - The VRM temperatures are also quite good.
    - G.Skill RAM works flawlessly at 6000MHz with one click and supports up to 8000MHz.
    - Good wifi and bluetooth, as every time I used them I had no problems.
    - It has plenty of fan and RGB headers, just check if the positions are convenient for your case.
    - I don't have experience with the new BIOS but compared to the old ones I found them just fine, I don't have high demands, I've only entered 3-4 times. Whatever I needed to find, I found except for one time when I wanted to disable direct storage.

    Attention!!!
    There is a problem with some motherboards with AMD X3D but BIOS updates have been released. Search carefully to make sure the issue has been resolved first because I don't know the extent of the problem or what has been done.

    These are the most important things for me. I highly recommend it.

    Honest motherboard, several slots for NVMe (1 for 5th gen, 2-3 for 4th gen, not sure), a lot of USB ports (personally I don't need that many). The BIOS offers quite a bit of freedom but is more difficult to use than MSI. Personally, I haven't managed to update with instant flash, only with flashback, which if you're not sure about the drivers, can cause problems. The WiFi is excellent. With a conventional router, you don't need anything better. The ARGB slots are far from the pins for the fans, so keep that in mind. In fact, the rear one is below the graphics card, so I needed to do a bit of acrobatics to change it. As a build, it seems quite durable to me

    All good, everything fit as it should, future proof mobo, with pcie 5.0 for both card and drive. The bios allows you to play and tweak things. Worth its money and then some.
