Couldn't have been easier

ASRock Z590 Steel Legend WiFi 6E LGA 1200 Intel Z590 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASRock Z590 Steel Legend WiFi 6E LGA 1200 Intel Z590 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: -BOOTS IN LEGACY MODE -Gorgeous board -Cheap with Newegg bundle (i5 11600k) -RGB doesn't look cheap, clean colors -wifi works great and immediately w/o issues

Cons: -A single pin was slightly bent. Took a pic, but was able to put back in place with tweezers -Legacy mode is hidden under CSM. My old brain didn't know that. Was absolutely baffled why it wouldn't read my SSD as a bootable drive. (Prob jus me being old) -Had to buy a slim air cooler (cus I'm oldschool) to fit 4 ram sticks. I don't OC so not a big deal, stays cool. (In reality I jus wanted the 4 rgb sticks, not 2) NONE OF THIS would cause me to remove an egg, it works perfectly (so far) and just wanted to be honest about the experience.

Overall Review: This board booted first time no issues. Don't plan on OC'ing, jus enjoying the ride for Lost Ark. Thanks Newegg for the killer combo deal, I almost talked myself into an AMD 5600x, but glad I didn't. I just game and prefer intel. 100+ FPS max settings 1440p Lost Ark during raids/abyss/chaos etc. i5 - 11600k Radeon 6600 XT 32gb 3600 DDR4

Pros: - Fast when it worked

Cons: - internet started slowing down, ISP did it's thing resetting and it pepped back up for a week. That week is when the return period ran out. Oof. I tried refurbished once, no more.

Overall Review: Just buy new.

Works as should

Pros: -Works -Never crashes or needs reset

Cons: -Ugly and bright -Doesn't reach our first floor from the 3rd. (Not a big deal as that's the garage, but hey, it's a valid point)

Overall Review: Does it's job and was cheap. I'll upgrade to a 6 soon, but it got us by for when we needed it.

It's Ram

Pros: - was on sale - matches my MB / case - RGB is gorgeous, doesn't look cheap

Cons: None

Overall Review: Yah yah, I could have got 32gb in 2 sticks, but I wanted a full board for the RGB. Works fine.

Works as intended

Pros: Worked immediately after plugging in on a 7yr old PC. Doesn't get much more compatible than that.

Cons: Needs a cord to power the bluetooth

Overall Review: Buy it, all my bluetooth accessories have connected immediately and flawlessly. Great range as well.

Amazing Vid card for price!@

Pros: Everything about it. I can run any game maxed out, including Crysis 3. Everything works perfectly, no freezes, no overheating, runs cool for what it is, and quiet. I really don't see how PC noise can ever be an issue in the first place, considering when buying something like this, you most likely have a killer sound setup also.

Cons: None. Bought mine for 450$ on Newegg, will buy a second one once next gen comes out.

Overall Review: Great card and absolutely worth the extra over the 660 and 670's when it comes to longevity. Specs: 4670k 16gb g.skill 780 gtx SSD 120gb Samsung C70, K70, M65, Corsair 750 gold PS (all corsair products) MSI z87-g43 gaming MB
