I'm not completely satisfied with the product.

General impressions. gigabyte's engineers missed something, especially in terms of PCI 4.0 support. And it's a pretty good motherboard. But the moments with Wifi and the top slot spoiled the overall picture. Has some pros: Chipset cooling is well organized, XPM mode started right away. Its cons: Intermittent WiFi drop. An incomprehensible oddity when, after a long work of 5-6 hours, WiFi may stop working. Restart helps, as reconnecting to WiFi does not give any results. Initially there was an I7-10700F processor. I found out about the fact that the top slot M2 - PCI 4.0 will determine SSD only with 11th generation processors after I purchased this miracle. PCI 3.0 SSD drives work fine. Replaced with an 11th generation processor. And installed in the top slot M2 - PCI 4.0 SSD standard PCIe Gen4. But with this SSD, the system did not start at all. Installed SSD in PCI 3.0 - works. But the SSD speeds are 2 times less than the declared characteristics. In the list of compatible SSDs for this board, this drive is present, but does not work.
