The motherboard is beautiful and worked pretty well out of the box, I will note that the upper right hand corner of the motherboard was slightly bent, a tad auspicious perhaps, but It's been working for a few weeks now without issue. Idk if that should have made it past any quality control. Not bestbuys fault. Very good motherboard for white builds very clean.

PROS:it’s all white and even the ram slots are white.
Rgb is controllable through windows settings. No need for RGB fusion.
Decent build quality. I’ve seen better but it’s not too bad.
Cons:
Latch to take out the gpu is hidden behind the top ssd slot. Need a q-tip or tweezer to push the button in and take out the gpu.
CMOS button is hidden behind a plate. Not even sure how to take the plate off to access it. Should have been visible.
No CMOS button on the back of the motherboard.
Q flash button needs a q tip or tweezer to hit the button just like the latch for the gpu.
There is no pump head header on the board. Need to use the middle one on the top labeled cpu_fan. Most boards will have a header named “CPU pump” or something along those lines. This does not affect functionality but super unnecessary.
Tips:
Use the second and last ram slots if you run two sticks.
If you have one ssd, use the top slot.
If you have two, use the top slot as your main and your secondary in the third slot. This will help your gpu run at the full lanes.
This is not a con but when paired with a 9800x3d, I had to flash the bios to get it to boot.
When flashing the bios, rename the file as GIGABYTE.bin.
As stated before, your AIO will use the CPU_FAN header on the top right. It’s the middle header

My first white pc build and I am in love with this board. It has all the ports I need and I am looking forward to updating my router to take advantage of Wi-Fi 7.

Works Great as long as you dont enable Expo/ XMP. Then the pc wont wake from sleep… cant believe gigabyte hasnt fixed this since the last generation of motherboards

I cant say anything about the board. But what i could talk about is the condition it was shipped in, absolutely zero protection in a big taped up box. How does this make it past anyone at the job!! I made a video shame i cant post it here. Now i will drive 40mile to go back and forth to get a new one cause im not going to make my build to find out the board is bad. What a crappy company lately. and im a $200 dollar a yr member, for what? Wheres my f in gpu that i was promised as a member!!! Just another big company pis in on the little man!!!!!
