BEST SELLERS

In Motherboard

It recognized my 9800x3d right out of the box. It runs my pair of DDR5 6000 ram on EXPO settings with no issue. The built-in WIFI is stellar as compared to a USB wifi adapter I was using on my old rig. It connects to my wireless network waking up from sleep before I can even pull up the start bar to check.

Best layout among competing motherboards. A 2-slot width GPU still allows use of x1 PCIe in addition to the other x16. This allowed mounting a 10Gbps network card on the x1 (albeit max at 7Gbps) and a U.2 NVMe on the other x16 slot. The M.2 slots are all exposed. That means, mounting U.2 NVMe's on the M.2 slots is possible. I mounted a U.2 Optane for OS and caching to the hard drives on one of the slots. This setup is not possible with Gigabye, Asus, and MSI micro-ATX boards. These competing motherboards have either 1 or both of their M.2 slots underneath the PCIe cards! The slots have open ended notches that allows longer x16 card to be mounted on the x1 slot, for example. The BIOS features is extensive. Bifurcation is possible on the PCIe. Runs Ryzen 9 7950x with ease. EXPO setting on a GSkill 6000Mhz CL30 is running excellent. Supports ECC memory. Nice. I paired it with an A6000 GPU for a true creative workstation setup.

Tons of options on motherboard, bios almost has too many. If you want to overlook this has probably everything your looking for. Going to add 2nd GPU once I get more info on the bifurcation that it says it can do. Overall happy so far.

Good looking, lots of ports, and Sturdy

Worked fine with my new Ryzen 9900X + MSI 5070 Gaming Trio + Linux Mint build. The BIOS fan curves and other settings are easy to adjust (Yes, I'm old enough to be impressed by friendly BIOS screens. You kids dunno how good you've got it these days).

Pros are I'm a noob and I could still figure out how to set up power fans and cpu cooler

-Plenty of connectors - Well designed BIOS with easy customization options. Setting fan curves and RAM speeds is no problem. -Nice build quality with a sturdy PCB. -Easy to install SSDs -3 USB-C connectors is appreciated

Shipping was on time, came packaged well. The motherboard itself works with zero issues, the setup was super easy, and we love the convenience setup features like snap in M.5 drives! My son is very happy!

Bought this MB with a Raptor Lake i5 to replace my old Asus Zxx MB and Kaby Lake i7 that were not capable of upgrading to Windows 11. Reused my old CM PS, CM Heatsink, Nvidia card and even my old 16GB of PC4 RAM. Booted-up and it automatically booted Windows 10 from my old SSD. I was then able to "Upgrade" to Windows 11 (rather than having to buy a new copy) and it has worked perfectly. When I first started doing builds 30 years ago, if you changed the CPU, MB or HD, you had to start all over. Not this time. Don't know why?

It has the features I want. The EZ PCI release is very helpful. M.2 drives are easy to install.

Works great, exactly what I expected

Honestly, I purchased this product due to its small form factor and numerous features. Its a bit overkill for what I need but its great. I was worried the HIVE may not have been a good idea but its a niche novelty. The light features during boot allows for quicker troubleshooting(assuming you can remember what each color means without looking it up each time LOL) and ports allow quick input for external usb-based storage and peripherals.

Easy installation and had just the right features I needed for the build. Paired with an AMD Ryzen 5 2400G with Radeon Vega Graphics 3.60 GHz and the Kingston FURY Beast 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) it bundled with in addition to another set for 32GB total. The board is running fine so far and does what I need it to do. Overall happy with this board.

I like that it has enough Fan and Fanopt headers to run an AIO (Im using a fan hub to run the rest of my case fans). I like that it has two NVME slots. and it looks cool.

Pros are the blue tooth and wireless built in. They board also allows flexibility in storge types

Cool color scheme, steel grey. Not too many annoying RGB lights. Just soft backlighting. Bios is easy to navigate once you get over not being able to use backspace or esc keys. Just hit tabs to go back. Heatsink for M.2 does the trick. M.2 slots are easy to get at with the little turnbuckle latch. Tricky at first. Runs cool. More than enough USB. Connections were easy to find and layout is well designed.

When I first picked it up you could tell the quality by the weight. Heat sinks are abundant throughout the board. Didn't have any problems with not posting. .

Not many white X870E MB out there - This is perfect with multiple nmve m2 lanes
