GIGABYTE Z890 AORUS MASTER AI TOP LGA 1851

Built like a brick, EASY install. Best MB I've owned

All nvme slots have their own heatsinks. Definitely better than what you'll get with a nvme with a heatsink included. In the picture, you'll see my 9100 with it's oem heatsink. not as pretty or HUGE like the aorus.

Pros: Build solid, heavy, durable. Great location for connectors (at least for my artic c8) Everything went together easy. No issues with clips, mechanisms, etc. Looks beautiful. Updated bios before power on, this is a great board, with great features. Very easy to navigate bios, everything worked exactly as it should.

Cons: 0 so far.

Odd quirks

I got a pretty good deal on this board, and Im still not sure I would buy it again.

Pros: On the initial build this board seemed really nice, and runs well after its setup

Cons: There are odd quirks like the HDMI port is not on the motherboard back panel like every other board. Its on the right side of the board, almost nondescript. Being on the right side of the board, its really impossible to use the port without removing the case side panel. The BIOS software is terrible, and didnt recognize my gou until I updated it. **update*** A week after using the board, one of the two ethernet ports have died. Not sure I would chase them down for warranty, because all my software is installed and would be a pain to ship back and forth.
