great motherboard

Reviewed by: Sarah

Solid price for a Z690 motherboard, built in wi-fi works great, no issues with install or set-up, neutral design matches computer setup nicely

no weaknesses at this time

Motherboard has been great so far! Was easy to set-up, and everything worked perfectly after drivers were updated. Been using it for about a month now with no issues. Would highly recommend, especially for the price.

Excellent motherboard minus a few caveats

Reviewed by: steve

the hardware itself is top notch and it comes with a great bios

the lack of documentation is inexcusable - its vital that customers are given schematics of the board to know where to plug everything in - having it online doesn't help

overall - probably the best bang for the buck right now, especially if you upgraded to the 12600
