Intuitive Layout for Build
I bought this as part of an Intel build to update from my aging PC. Everything was extremely intuitively placed and happened to pair extremely well with my Corsair 5000D case. I would highly recommend this motherboard as it served all my connectivity needs and onboard WiFi was a must for me.
