Review on EVGA X299 Intel Motherboard 151 SX E299 KR by Anil Campbell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy to work with computers and accessories

This is my first EVGA phone and was the easiest to set up and install. The UEFI menus are clear and intuitive, showing that a lot of attention has been paid to usability, not just looks. Pros: Build Quality: This is the first phone I've ever used where the ATX power connectors just plug in. plugs and unplugs without wobbling or banging against the body when the plug is finally released. No bloat: You don't need any manufacturer-specific software to unlock all features or set up the right fan curves. Slot: The general layout and then the more noticeable 90 degree connections make cable routing much easier. Take a look: the entire Dark series is great for those of us who want a stylish phone but don't want all the RGB and color schemes. This allows for an overall system design where you don't have to think about "what will match my lighting and mobo colors". Stylish, classic design and colors. Cons: Wide: EATX - make sure you have room. Fan headers: There are many, but not all are fully PWM capable. There's no front USB Type-C port. That's by no means a deal breaker (it has one on the rear I/O), but people could just assume it's there.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
