No, it's the fact that NZXT's boards are made by Elitegroup, an OEM I've given plenty of chances to prove they've changed, and they keep failing to meet my low expectations. I think I'd rather go with Biostar if I wasn't going for a Tier-one OEM like Asrock/Asus/Gigabyte/MSI...
Or, hell, if I wanted to have a taste of something strange I’d grab one of those Colorful boards.
I like the aesthetic of the board, just not NZXT as a company. Interested in MSRP anyway.
I'd like to see more mainboard brands in the AM5 field. I wish for availability and reasonable price (below 250€ with tax and shipping). Looking at biostar, colorful and nzxt.
I'm guessing that the extra $1.03741 worth of extra paint/pigment is just tooooo much for the mfgr's to absorb :(
Now we just need to see whether what NZXT charge for their logo on it is a reasonable cost to bear.
Might want to fact check that.
