Pros: - Lots of overclocking features - lots of fast USB ports - wifi 7

Cons: The system struggles with EXPO profiles. I have QVL memory from corsair, 2 sticks of 32GB that were switched out from G.skill QVL ram, 9800 x3d. Unfortunately, on about 1 out 5 boots the system stutters like crazy. This also happens when waking from sleep. Disabling EXPO fixes the problem. The board also currently has a bug where M.2 drive in slots 2 and 3 don't show up. In addition, the slots also share bandwidth with the GPU PCI express x 16 slot, so if you put anything there GPU runs at 8x which is annoying. Also expensive.

Overall Review: Thinking about returning this product. Tested every component, switched out the GPU (4090), can't get stable EXPO with QVL ram. Not sure if I should wait for BIOS updates and lose the ability to return or just return. Right now I'd say don't buy this board and wait for something more stable.

Pros: Excellent Card, runs all games that I want to play well (L4D L4D2, Crysis, Dragon Age Origins, etc.). Somewhat quiet as well.

Cons: Very big card, and it died on me after a year and two months. Turned on my computer one day, and saw some white and green lines all over the screen. Figured it was nothing, but the next time I turned it on my computer wouldn't even boot up. Swapped this out for another GPU and sure enough the computer booted. This card died on me after a year, so be warned.
