9,0/10

A good motherboard, 7.8/10

  • Does what it has to do.
  • Supports 6th and 7th Gen Intel without BIOS update
  • Clickbios
  • Laptop hard drives can damage this motherboard.

The product is beautiful and has a clickbios, so you can click in the bios.

Support:
LGA 1151
This motherboard supports all 6th and 7th generations of Intel core i3/i5/i7 without a bios update. So a perfect beginners board.
If you want more info about the support you can look at tweakers.
I personally use an i5-7400.

Graphics Card:
Has PCI-E slots to connect most modern graphics cards.

Installation:
The cables go in fairly heavy, but the cables of the housing are just tinkering. This is unfortunate, but once you get through it, you'll notice that this motherboard does what it's supposed to do.

Cooling:
As always, I don't recommend using a stock cooler, even if you don't plan on overclocking.
But the cooling is fairly easy to install on this motherboard. I use a Hyper 212 Evo and it fits perfectly.

Personal result:
A good motherboard does what it's supposed to do.
But do not connect hard drives from a laptop. This destroys the motherboard in half a second. If you have a brand new laptop hard drive, it should do the trick.

I have him a 7.8/10
