    Pros: -Great layout and cool running powerful VRM -Far better CPU heatsink compatibility than Asus/Gigabyte models due to lower profile M.2 heatsink stack. You can opt to remove the top M.2 heatsink all together and either go naked or apply a very low profile heatsink to further enhance clearance for some lower profile coolers like the Noctua L12. -3x M.2 slots -Ran DDR5 CL36 6000 XMP out the box with original 3 month old bios no problem and OC’d to CL32 6400 easily -3x fan headers…

    Pros: best board for sff. The heatsink of the M.2 is low that allows you to put any without a cooler without problems! I was waiting for this board.. Completely excellent temperatures Cons: None! Overall Review: Best board right now!

    Pros: -Good support of Noctua CPU coolers -3 M.2 SSD slots -PCIe Gen 5 support for future cards -High frequency support for DDR5 for future upgrade -Thunderbolt passthrough of GPU outputs Cons: None Overall Review: The MSI MEG Z690I Unify is a great choice for a motherboard if you are planning to build in a smaller case. It is able to fit a NH-D15 CPU cooler, which is more than can be said of most of the other mATX and ITX motherboards currently available. There is plenty of clearance…

    Pros: This is by far the best Z690I motherboard available. I had built my PC with a different brand Z690I motherboard, which was the only one available at first release of the 12th gen chips. The other brand motherboard was not good at all – it took 25 seconds for startup, TB4 ports would not recognize my device, DDR5 was giving startup problems… This MSI Z690I is awesome. It starts up in 15 seconds from initial press of the power button to the Windows login screen. Fully supports my TB4…

    Pros: 3 M.2 slots Decent DDR5 support Gen 2 front usb-c almost fast post times Cons: 1 rgb header expensive software Overall Review: I usually go with the Asrock stuff due to their fast post times, but availability was a problem. So I tried this board due to past MSI boards posting quickly for me. With all the tweaks I know best post time for this board was 8.6 secs. which was ok but of course as other users have noticed, Intel has done something to their boards which causes a delay in…
