Review on 💪 GIGABYTE TRX40 AORUS Xtreme: sTRX/AMD/TRX40/Fins-Array Heatsink/16+3 Phases Infineon Digital VRM/Gen 4 AIC w/ 4 X M.2 NVMe/Intel WiFi 6/Intel Dual 10GbE LAN/XL-ATX Motherboard by Marc Farrell

These boards are absolutely the worst. You would think that by giving premium pricing you would at least get a product that works, but I've had absolutely horrible experiences with it. The PCIe bus on them appears to be held together with wire and tape. NVME drives in motherboard slots just randomly fall out (and then it takes a full BIOS reset to come back, if at all). This forces you to use the included riser card to run them (which works and I know they're not SSDs) and there's one of your x16 slots. It also seems to hate filling PCIe slots. GPU + Sound card + Thunderbolt card + SSD expansion card and it becomes very unstable. Throw in a quality Quadro card when you're dealing with over 4G decoding and the board just falls apart. Restart cycles, random discarding of one of the cards, frequent freezes. it's a huge mess. To top it off, their support is worse than useless. They have no idea what's going on and they also made a brilliant move by removing cross bolt spares leaving you waiting weeks before they can figure out what's going on to get your car running again bring (and decide same questions). This is unforgivable with such an expensive motherboard. Conclusion: If you want to use the features of such a board, you'd better switch to the WRX80 platform. Stay away from that trash can fire, though.
