Scott C. 4/1/2016 3:36:31 AM Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Feature rich budget board This review is from: BIOSTAR RACING B150GT5 LGA 1151 Intel B150 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard Pros: Worked out of the box with zero errors. the lighting effects look cool. has all the features id expect skylake to have except M.2 but this is a budget board and M.2 isnt the most adopted feature yet which is fine. Cons: The uefi bios setting design. ugh. all the features id expect are there. fan tuning, blck overclocking, minor tweaks its all there. but the design and layout is horrid, ive used asus, gigabyte, and now biostar boards and this is the worst ive ever used. i also had trouble finding memory settings. i couldnt enable the xmp profile on the gskill 8gb 2133 stick i picked up at all or even find the option but i did find the option to set the speeds to 2133. again. design issues. aside from that the onboard leds and strip could be brighter. colors are awesome and i love the feature but it could be a tad brighter. the deepcool set i use in my personal rig runs laps around these on the half bright setting alone. Other Thoughts: all in all i dont think the cons are enough to dock an egg. its a wonderful budget board i ordered to replace my friends aging core 2 quad q6600 system. and on top of it i used a march discount code that saved 12 bucks off the board. for 67 bucks i cant complain. for now this board is only running a i3 which is still bounds better then the old q6600 but it leaves a path for a skylake i5 or i7 down the road. Specs: I3-6100 stock, 8gb gskill nt series 2133 ram, amd r9 380x, 550w thermaltake psu (used from old system), WD 500gb blue (used from old system aswell) Manufacturer Response: Thank You for the kind feedback, Biostar would like to send a gift for you on being the first reviewer posted for this item.
