Damaged pins out of the box but was a used board never buy used with pins on the board there is a reason it gets returned but i love these rog boards cant say enough good about them amazing quality lot of options plenty of power great for overclocking gaming creating tons of fast usb ports headers temp plug in so many features and the ai oc actually works was amazed first board manufacturer that the ai oc actually does what it should only complaints ive seen are usually people that lack the knowledge or experience so on that note the bad is not a lot of support you have to take initiative and figure it out yourself but that depends on you and how motivated you are to have the best
