Review on 🎮 GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS Elite AC Gaming Motherboard with Intel LGA1200, Z490, ATX, 2xM.2 Thermal Guard, Realtek ALC1200, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2, Intel 802.11ac, 2.5 GbE LAN, RGB Fusion by Ronny Prather

Never had a problem with a Gigabyte MOBO in over 10 years and this is no exception. Running 10900k on all stock 4.9GHz cores. Front case fan for Noctua. Got two m.2 hard drives and A VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE. Remove thermal protection! This technology is complete nonsense. My m.2 drives became severely slow with m.2 protection enabled. I put it down and absolutely no problem. I guess the proximity to the 3060ti didn't help, but in general you don't want your m.2 drive to touch anything. The guards literally caught her warm. Terrible design. Besides, he's perfect! And they're removable, so it doesn't matter.
