Ships with BIOS 2.30
by Evadne WAs subject. Ordered late December. Board ships with BIOS 2.30 which still boots with 5950x and allows BIOS upgrades to be done without using an older processor.

As subject. Ordered late December. Board ships with BIOS 2.30 which still boots with 5950x and allows BIOS upgrades to be done without using an older processor.
Very good board packed full with features. One downside is that no info that it requires Intel mount cooling for CPU. I believe this should be added in specification section of the shop.
In terms of features and performance, this is a great board. Has all the headers you need for fans and rgb, 10 phase vrm, and the wifi is very nice. It's the only itx board that still includes an optical audio output, which is the main reason I got it as I have a soundbar. The metal PCIe slot is a nice addition to help with support too.The mark down on rating were for a couple of reasons - the chipset fan for cooling the southbridge is quite whiney, and the cpu power connection is in a really awkward position, it took me 20 minutes of fiddling to get it in my small case. I got a EK Velocity cpu block with an LG115x mounting kit since it doesn't have AM4 holes for mounting. The USB 3 count is a bit on the low side too but luckily I don't use many but something to bear in mind.
