Works great on Ryzen platform
Pros: Decent timing at decent price Hynix CJR die
Cons: None so far
Overall Review: Runs great on ASUS X470-i and Ryzen [email protected]. OCed to 3333 with everything default to XMP profile. 75ns latency on AIDA benchmark, which is OK for AMD platform. It's made in 14/19 week/year and it's CJR die according to Thaiphoon. Won't complain.
A great product poorly executed
Pros: - 3 M.2 slots - front panel 20Gb USB-C (if working properly) - decent VRM
Cons: - back panel USB-C was stuck at 2.0 (480Mbps) speed (despite rated at 10Gbps) - front panel USB-C sometimes doesn't work, a full power discharge sometimes fixes it temporarily - unable to re-apply saved BIOS fan curve after a BIOS update, despite UI says so - infamous Intel I225-V disconnect issue - bad overall QC. The first one arrived damaged (damaged CPU pins and fan headers, and bent PCB). Managed to get a replacement from newegg
Overall Review: A great product on paper, but in reality there are so many underlaying issues that really irritated my daily use of the motherboard.
Ideal for high performance "SFF" builds
Pros: - Deliver lots of power in such a small dimension - Quiet when idle
Cons: - Price. - Cable. These cables are not long enough. It's fine if you are building a super small ITX (Dancase A4 etc.), but if you want to use it in a large ITX or bigger cases (e.g. NZXT H200i etc.) you will have trouble routing 24pin and 8pin CPU cables as these cables are always 1-2 cm unreachable to the sockets on motherboard, and I endded up buying a set of extension cables to solve the problem.
Overall Review: Great product, could be better if Corsair could make cables few cms longer.
