Pros & Cons

Pros

✓ Five M.2 slots, one wired PCIe 5.0 x4 for next-gen NVMe drives
✓ 20+1+2 phase digital direct VRM feeds 13th-gen LGA 1700 flagship CPUs
✓ Wi-Fi 7 and multi-gig wired LAN onboard, no add-in network card needed
✓ Q-Flash Plus reflashes BIOS with no CPU, memory, or GPU installed
✓ Fins-Array VRM thermal armor plus M.2 Thermal Guard heatsinks included

Cons

✗ EATX footprint rules out most mid-tower and small form factor cases
✗ Listing conflicts on wired LAN: spec bullets say 5GbE, title says 10GbE
✗ DDR5-only across all 4 DIMMs, so an existing DDR4 kit will not carry over
✗ Socket support listed only for 13th-gen and next-gen LGA 1700 chips
