Great product
Pros: -lots of overclocking features -stable. -good use of space. the m.2. ssd stick mounts on the back of the board. i thought that was cleaver -not sure what iron pci slots are but it sounds cool. -priced very reasonably.
Cons: -doesn't actually have builtin wifi. only the slot, still need to buy a separate adapter (m.2. key b) -biostar USA does not have drivers for the board. I had to google biostar TW. Package does include DVD though. -utilities software doesn't work with the board. -manual is very brief. at least show me where the cmos jumper is located..... -when pc fails to boot because of too much overclocking, it takes a while to auto-restart to the default bios....like 10mins long. not sure why it takes so long. -wish it supported USBc Thunderbolt technology. the jerks with macs have usbc already...
Overall Review: My experience with BioStar motherboards is that they are very stable. I rarely upgrade pcs, and I'm glad to see that BioStar is still around. Not sure when they started adding more features and overclocking to their boards, but i'm glad they did. My next board in the distant future will most likely be BioStar too. I hope they never change that ugly logo of theirs. Every time i restart the pc.....its just a screen full of ugly. For a z490 itx board, the price is very competitively. Mine has been running Black Desert with overlock settings for 5 days none stop without any issues, and so I feel the board will continue to be solid like my previous BioStar boards. Their drivers and owners manual are a bit messy. Feels like I bought something on Ebey from China. I had to hunt for the drivers on Google; Why have a USA website when all the stuff is located on the TW website? Of course most of the drivers need to be renamed when you download them, so you can discern what is what. Not a big deals...overcoming these obstacles makes me feel computer savvy. Overall, a solid board with good features. In the end, that's all that matters.
good product & service. renewal is shady
Pros: Lots of goodies -anti-virus, firewall, VPN Customers service on the webpage is good. Login and chat.
Cons: -installation require credit card info.... wdf -auto enable auto-renewal -they jack up the price when u auto renew with them
Overall Review: Oh Norton..... its a company that is half good and half asz-hole. Good product, but always trying to milk more $$$. Make Norton Great Again.
poop product. Waste of time and money
Pros: cheap
Cons: mouse is unpredictable.
Overall Review: the only thing that is usable is the keyboard.
not work with muti-button mouse
Pros: n/a
Cons: my mouse has 5 buttons and a scroll. this KVM switch only allows for 3/5 buttons to work.
Awesome drive
Pros: - fast - low voltage - desktop mount included
Cons: - expensive
Overall Review: I just wanted to install Win7, some programs, and a game. Win7 pro apparently takes up a lot of space like 40-45gb, and after installing the updates, i'm almost out of room :( I wish I had invested in a bigger driver. sigh.
Good Value
Pros: + lots of goodies + bios supports Intel i7 3820 CPU + affordable
Cons: - Newegg sent me a box that was missing a CD. :( - Wish the instructions were beefier. the BIOS has a lot of options for manual configuration, especially for cpu and ram. - Board has 2x 8-connector for power. my psu only has 1 of the 8-connector cord. An adapter of some sort would've been nice. :(
Overall Review: This is my first Biostar board. The brand was and is still not that appealing to me. It has a history of being very economical. However, the reviews of this board have been surprisingly good. Apparently, Biostar now makes solid boards that come with lots of goodies and still at bargain price.
Good Seller
Best price for an intel 10400f . Product was shipped immediately. Everything works, and I'm happy
