I think this is about the best board in this price range. You actually have so many functionalities from a much more expensive board that it would be almost difficult to tell it apart. The set-up of the plate is spacious, which is nice because then things do not heat up quickly. A large number of VRMs also ensure that the voltage will be properly distributed and these components therefore do not heat up quickly. In addition, this relatively large amount of VRMs gives you good overclocking capabilities for just about any CPU it supports. BIOS is well designed and useful for both experienced and novice users. You even have a heatsink for your M.2 drive (but only on 1 of the 2). Very cool board!!
