Entry level Z board, lacks some QoL features

PROS:
-Great BIOS that has wide features and is easy to use (has a search function and “favourites” for often tweaked aspects)
- 4 M.2 NVME slots with tool-less fastenings
- 8 layer PCB should allow stable DRAM overclocking
- large VRM heatsink
- Decent number of USB slots on the I/O shield

CONS:
- Only one stereo 3.5mm plug OUT! No basic 5.1 channel sound, etc
- A very limited number of USB headers on the motherboard. Barely sufficient, you will be making sacrifices.
- only 3 PCIE slots (x16, x8, x8)
- too few fan headers! Unlocked K chips needing more cooling than RGB.
- WiFi does not work out of the box with Windows 10! Shou...view more

Solid Motherboard - No Coil Whine

Amazing MOBO, so stoked with the features for the price. I got scared reading other reviews online about some Gigabyte boards being prone to coil whine but I didn't have any issues. No regrets, stoked with this board, running a 14700K and 6000mhz ram no issues at all.

Stable board with good memory speed

So I bought this board as the price had come down to a reasonable level and reviews from well known tech sites said it was stable. What I didn't know until I dug a bit deeper as that this board is one of the best around for fast RAM stability (this is something that can be a bit of a gamble). If I had known this I might have bought some faster RAM! As it stands I had no trouble enabling XMP on the mid-tier memory that I bought with this motherboard.

A fantastic board

No issues with this. That fact it supports 14 gen out of the box ensures no bios issues on boot with the i7-14700k. New bios layout is a welcome addition.
Loads of usb ports.

Pricey but feature packed

Not many class 14 mobos out there so I had few to choose from. This covered all my requirements and more. Bleeding edge features with a price-tag that stings a bit.
