Good value reasonably high-spec motherboard, worked first time
Seems to be a well made motherboard. Manuals are clear (the quick-start guide is a bit terse, but that's not unusual). I did't have any problems fitting it or getting it to work. I installed it with an i7-6700 CPU and GTX 980 GPU - all worked first time.The modern BIOS is much easier to use than when I last built a PC (many years ago) - it's much more like a modern graphical user interface and you can use a mouse with it (maybe they all do that these days?). It's a nice touch that you can do firmware updates directly from the BIOS if you are connected to the internet.It came with a couple of SATA cables; one with a straight PCB connector, the other right-angled. If you want to fit both of these (for two drives) you'd need another straight one because the right-angled one clashes with the USB 3.0 front panel cable.

Great board with good features that can be an issue
I have not bought it from my account myself, it was through the account for the company I work for.This is a great MB, it looks good, it has lots of features, it was priced well and does well. It is full of USB 3.0 ports and no 2.0 ports are to be found, but then again there is also no USB Type C or 3.1 ports but that's really not a big deal.Everything is good about this board IMO. The shield above the I/O looks great and so do the heat sinks, apart from the style-less copper one over the chip set which you can get over pretty quickly. Apart from that it's all black with also good shielding over the area used for the on board sound.A few issue that I came across was that I couldn't actually get any Mouse and Keyboard to work apart from the BIOS. I did get them working by resetting the BIOS a few times and Enabling/Disabling Legacy USB support and PS/2 Support. This may be because you needed to have the 3.0 Driver installed which I couldn't do as I couldn't install Windows. But once I got into Windows I had to use the Driver DVD to install the USB driver which then allowed me to plug a USB in with the updated drivers for the ones that couldn't get installed Automatically.I also found that the board won't go higher than 2133 MHz meaning my 2400 MHz RAM was not fully used but that would be my fault for not researching enough.Overall, this is a great motherboard and I wouldn't hesitate in getting again if needed. The fact that you can use this with a case that has all USB 3.0's is a good thing for me as the more USB 3.0's you have the better IMO.
