advantage
  1. Quad-GPU Support

  2. Excellent BIOS

    The BIOS has all the features I was looking for and almost all of them were in sensible locations with sensible names and descriptions.
  3. One-click Overclocking

    One click overclock works well and overclocked my 9800x to 4.6GHz all cores without any heat issues.
  4. Good Compatibility

    The board accepted my 9800x even with the older BIOS that came in the box.
  5. Stable Performance

    Significantly increased benchmarks and real world performance with the new BIOS update.

  2. Physical Condition

    Received an item that had been heavily used and cleaned, with a missing soldered resistor.
  3. Bios Button Missing

    No back plate and the BIOS button completely missing.
