Very good
Meets expectations. No bugs. Excellent software support.
Follows a failure on another motherboard of the same range/generation.

Bof
Bought for a 11700k, it's one of the latest batch of motherboards available here. What particularly attracted me was the 384 kHz/24-bit DAC.
Unfortunately, it's not compatible with older versions of Windows. What's more, an external graphics card is required to boot from an MPT disk!
Overall, the card is well-balanced, but its effectiveness needs to be confirmed over time. It should be noted that the M.2 slots have thermal buffers. Therefore, if a sticker is affixed to the M.2, you should not use them.
One negative point concerns the input slots for the chassis fans. In my case, the sockets were located opposite the fans, so I had to use extension leads.
The big disappointment concerns the DAC. I don't know if it's to do with the drivers, but it only works in playback mode, exclusively on the headphone socket and only on Windows 10. It's a problem on Linux, where this output doesn't work. Honestly, it's false advertising.
The BIOS is designed for overclocking, but it's difficult to access a simpler version if you're not interested in overclocking. What's more, every time the BIOS is updated, we're encouraged to enable overclocking if it's disabled.
To sum up, given the current price, it's acceptable, but forget about any advances regarding the DAC, as it doesn't really support 384kHz/32-bit as advertised. As a previous user of an i7-3700, I can't see any noticeable improvement for a motherboard of this level, with the obvious exception of the M.2 slots.

Perfect.
Super cm that works perfectly with a 10 gen processor. Super card to pass of the high game even if the socket 1200 are not any more in fabrications (debride the flow of connection compared to the cm of bad of game).

Good motherboard but be careful with the auto oc with i9 10th gen
Very good motherboard overall, it is designed mainly for 11th gen and optionally for 10th gen which can probably explain the problem I had.
I have activated the auto oc of the motherboard with my 10850k which should be up to 5.2ghz at max is very unstable with the base voltage given by the board.
I had to limit the ratio of the cpu 47 to 4.7ghz so that it is without touching the voltage to be stable.
This can prove a bad current management of the card for this cpu so you will probably have to do the oc yourself for some cpu.
