Quality

It has a solid build and good features / functionality.

Been using this since 2019 and have had zero issues always had good performance and is really reliable.

The clips that hold the ram in place are broken, moving my pc for any reason could dislodge my ram sticks.

Upgraded from an early model z370 series motherboard that didn't support series 9000 processors or ram faster than 2666 mhz.

I ordered an m2 screw kit off of amazon for $8.

It is by no means cheap, but it is affordable.

Shipping

Everything arrived ahead of schedule which is perfect.

I've built another pc before this one with a different motherboard and didn't have this issue.
