    Motherboard: This is one of the things I would choose differently. No RGB fan header and no wifi or bluetooth, it has meant that i've had to buy additional parts over the years like a bluetooth connector and I'd like to put RGB into this build but no dice, I also haven't been able to OC that well, it's included presets do not work.

    I never really pushed it as I used an i3-6100 so I can't testify to it's Z170 capacity but it is ULTRA DURABLE and lasted me 4 years and more to come for my brother.

    It was a referb board, came warped. It went in perfectly fine, and it's one of the Z170 boards that Der8aur made a non K sku overclocking BIOS for, so i have the i5 6400 overclocked to 4.3GHz stable.

    Ran into some problems with bootlooping, but otherwise smooth sailing. Acquired through an eBay auction.

    I am sort of yes and no on this motherboard. I love the bios, and the motherboard itself works, but there are a total of 3 fan headers which is a major inconvenience. I also noticed that the CPU cooler fan header is very, very close to the CPU itself, which made hiding that cable impossible. I wish there were more than 3 fan headers and SLI support, but I cant have everything.

    Solid mobo for the price. The overclocking options are fairly limited, but I can still overclocked nicely. 3 sys fan headers are really nice and g connector makes front panel io connectors a lot easier.

    Super cheap, works good, I actually read the manual for setting up RAID and there was detailed steps, other than that, there's only 2 Sata cables and one of them is 90 degrees, caused a problem with my case I had to force one in.

    Bios was very tricky and gave me a lot of problems but other than that, it wasn't that bad,

    Has all the bells and whistles you could need. Could use a few more USB slots but that's just me. Has two M.2 slots. LEDs are pretty neat too. (Yellow)
