Finished Looks

Having this motherboard on a test bench does not do it any justice. Even so, it looks fantastic as the all-in-one monoblock fits perfectly into the motherboard. Install the memory cover along with all the cables routed over the sides and it is now a very clean setup. The EKWB fittings are not included, but pair well aesthetically nonetheless.

Test System

Supporting Hardware

Testing is performed with the newest available version of the BIOS at the time. All BIOS settings related to the CPU are left untouched. XMP is enabled for the memory. However, if the primary, secondary, or tertiary memory timings are incorrectly set by the BIOS, it is tested as-is to mimic a standard user. The same goes for the CPU. Unless it is a bug in the current BIOS—i.e., not present in other versions—any and all CPU boost parameters are left alone.
