It's a very good motherboard, the only downside is that the bios are in English and French is not available.
There could be some ambiguity, I thought this card was an ASUS card, I don't regret this choice, my asus z390e gaming card having broken down after three years, having hardly been used...The tests of this asrock card are hardly favourable in view of the comments, personally, it's the only card I've found with 8 SATA ports... it works perfectly well, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed to prove the comments wrong.
Great motherboard with lots of USB ports, not to mention SSD and graphics card slots.
