This motherboard is a great x870 motherboard. It has a solid set of features including pcie5 support for GPU and several m2 slots. I love that there’s no lane sharing between the GPU and the M.2 slots.
The three USB-C ports on the back are super handy, especially if you’ve got a lot of newer devices. The integrated I/O shield is another great feature—it fits perfectly and makes installation way easier. The tool-less M.2 heatsinks were a nice touch, too. Installing the drives was quick and easy, no tiny screws to mess with. 2 out of 3 M.2 heatsinks are tool-less.
The non-tool-less M.2 heatsink gave me a bit of trouble because one of the screws was stuck to the heatsink, which was a pain to deal with. Also, I’m not a big fan of the color scheme. It doesn’t look bad, but it’s not my style.
I have already built my pc with an AMD 9800x3d and 64GB DDR5 6000 CL30 RAM and got Windows 11 booted within the same day of getting all of my parts. I recommend it based on my experience so far.
