Perfect product for any user!

Good motherboard for the price! I also attached a photo of VRM temperatures at 24 minutes in Prime with a consumption of 330+ watts by the processor. The radiator is blown with a 120mm 1200 revolving screw from a distance of 2-3 cm. Without airflow, the rates will be higher.

Pros
  • 1. This is an ated and optimized version of X299 boards, for 1xxxx series (Cascade Lake-X). Powerful power supply with 2x8 sockets and already supports up to 256GB of RAM + full support out of the box for Cascade Lake-X processors. Now it’s not scary to overclock a 14th core on it, before it was msi x299 tomahawk, so it turned off already at ~ 350Watt to the processor. I wrote a review about it here. 2. It also has a Flashback (a BIOS crash? - no problem).
Cons
