As someone who relies on their computer daily, I was searching for an update to my MSI Z790 ITX Edge SFF 13700 K PC that delivers excellent speed and reliability. When it was time for an upgrade, I opted for a Gigabyte Z890i Aorus ITX Ultra and an Intel i9-2850 K Ultra CPU. From day one until yesterday, I stuck with this board through BIOS revisions and other updates, so it would read RAM correctly, maintain a Wi-Fi signal, and avoid random shutdowns. It never would stabilize long story. When the price for this MSI Z890 I ITX Edge Wi-Fi dropped, I bought one (2 actually) instantly and installed mine yesterday. I am amazed at the difference in quality. It is significantly faster, smoother, and the audio is impressive; the audio on the Gigabyte board was not. It reads my RAM at 8400MHz, right where it should be, with zero glitches. My CPU is also right where it should be, and there are no random shutdowns (fingers crossed). Software installation was fast and automatic. I conducted extensive research before making this switch, and on paper, this board was supposed to be quicker due to enhanced VRMs, among other improvements. I have found this to be so. Though I havent benchmarked it yet, I anticipate excellent marks.

You can cram one of these motherboard+processor combos into a tiny case with the power supply abstracted to an external laptop-style PSU. The board is powerful enough for everyday tasks and you can drag it around for various things.

Clean look and easy BIOS Keeps my 265k boosted as high as other more expensive boards

Plenty of m.2 slots for the most Exstream gamers. The ability to have up to 5G Lan on a motherboard with today's internet speeds is amazing. I don't have the ability to get internet that fast lol. I liked how they changed the slots for the CPU power from the left side of the motherboard to the right giving more room to get the cables connected.
