yea i love it, except for my chip it really can perform. Nice power phases, low temps on the nb side, its cooled nicely, but a lot of people cut off the heat pipes, i dont i just put tiny fans to cool the mosfets and nb. The options in bios are very nice, i like the load line calibration levels, it has level 1 for slight llc, level2 for llc, and standard for stock intel. The pci-e can be taken up as high as you need, and i've heard of this board doing 230+ very easily with a capable chip like the 980x.
