Lots of Features
Solid motherboard with lots of features. The 2.5G ethernet port and the 6 SATA ports is hard to come by at a reasonable price these days. Worked straight out of the box with my 14700K cpu, no BIOS update required. Installing an SSD m.2 drive is super easy on this board. No issues so far. Great packaging too.
