Pros & Cons
Pros
Great all around motherboard. Extra $ for the deluxe model is well worth it. On-board diagnostic support, and the setup features.

Competitiveness
One of the best mobos ive bought in a while
Unlike its evga z170 classified 4way intel socket lga1151 with ddr4 3200mhz motherboard eatx 151sse179kr ... Read More
Unfortunately it seems the board is dead most likely the result of a crapped out bios
While expensive i think this was the right motherboard to pair with an intel 6700k processor
