An ideal product for any type of consumer.

The motherboard is in perfect order, but I'll tell you guys this: never, never, hear, never install any utilities from Gigabyte! We are talking about programs such as App Center, SiV, EasyTune, Sidekick, etc. (not to be confused with standard Intel motherboard drivers). The curvature of the hands of the programmers of this company cannot be measured with any curvimeter. Not only is the software itself buggy, freezes, crashes, periodically refuses to start (how do you like this: after the last BIOS ate, the smart fan 6 program calibrated the coolers in such a way that they had 0 revolutions at a load of 40-50%, as a result when, according to the curve setting, it was necessary to blow at 50% power, the coolers stupidly stopped). So he still manages to interact in the most unpredictable way with other software components of the system, for example, with video card drivers or power management. Instead of hibernation, the computer turned off completely, the video card rained with Radeon Wattman errors, the monitor turned on and off from the flying video driver, which just didn’t happen. As if by hand, everything was removed after cleaning the system from gigabyte software. Also disable the Gigabyte ate service or something like that, because it will remind you and offer to install these buggy parts again.

Pros
  • High-quality power circuit with good massive cooling. Enough connectors of all types, including argb and m2. Full-size, which means you can put the sound card on the video card without any problems.
Cons
  • Explicit has not yet been found, except for software (see comments).

It cost 11-13 thousand in May, it doesn’t pull on 20k, you can find better options.
