Highlights
Quality
I’ve been using this board for a few days now and has been very solid no issues recognized my ram and cpu ryzen 7 3700x w/o any issues.
) the board works smoothly with no glitches, and built-in graphics works fine with the ryzen pro.
It's really shocking at the quality of sound produced by this motherboard.
Fired right up and installed win 11 .
Price
Got this motherboard on a sale, along with my 5600x.
First time buying a true budget motherboard, and for the price i couldn't pass it up.
Using stock stealth cooler, with shroud removed, in the in win chopin pro $120, with ripjaws 4000mt/s cl18 ram for $83.
Really great for the price but wish it had pcie 4 and a type c connector.
Shipping
My mobo worked with with the 5600x out of the box, having been shipped with bios version f10.
Shipping was late, packaging was beyond damaged, motherboard was bent.
Competitiveness
I have experienced tons of mid-high-end hardware from both intel and different mobo brands.
(i'm guessing gigabyte had the same market in mind for this mobo.
