High quality, couldn’t be happier
I got this for $140 in a bundle deal with an i7-14700k, which is nearly 50% off. That’s crazy. If I hadn’t gotten that discount, I’d still give this 5 stars though. It’s super straightforward to build with and, for what it’s worth, looks cool. It’s a perfectly good gen 5 board, the wifi 7 is whatever/a nice little bonus, but the biggest thing is it has similar connectivity hardware as similarly priced boards from competitors
