Highlights
Quality
I built my first pc with this and i was super impressed with the quality and design.
Rgb lighting connectors work perfect with the cheap chinese strips as well.

Price
Prime member so this made it a great price.
Competitiveness
I have it working perfectly with standard cpu clock with a ddr4-3000 overclock.
Bestest strongest motherboard ever bought still working perfectly with an a i7 7700k overclocked to 5.
Used in a new pc build, which was new with a 7700k and a 1080 at the time.
Purchased it for my wife’s gaming computer.
