Weak M.2 racks. can break if you overtighten the screw(s).

Used for gaming, streaming, archiving old photos, TV antenna recording, and everything in between. simultaneously. This is the ultimate no-compromise AM4 motherboard, and best of all, the chipset is passively cooled. So there is no moving fan to worry about failing in the future. My only complaint is how easily the m.2 rack actually broke when tightening a screw to secure one of my SSDs. It's not a big deal in my situation though as I just moved my SSD to a faster slot.

Pros
