Finished Looks

The MEG X299 CREATION is an incredibly appealing board visually. The design is relatively neutral in terms of colors, yet bold. The fit and finish is quite good, with small details, like the Steel Armor DIMM slots and unique M.2 and chipset heatsink, making it stand out. Blending well with the dark PCB, the T-Force DDR4 Gaming Xtreem memory provided by Team Group looks quite good when paired with the MEG X299 CREATION.


The RGB implementation is seamless. It really pulls this board together. While this isn't the boldest RGB LED setup I have seen, it is one of the most natural-looking.

Test System

As with the ASRock X399 Phantom Gaming 6 I reviewed recently, most benchmarks will have two different results. One result represents a dual channel memory setup using the same two 8 Gb G.SKILL sticks I use in all my mainstream board reviews, while the other is a quad channel setup using the four 8 Gb sticks from Team Group.


I want to thank Team Group once again for providing me with these sticks to showcase the full potential of HEDT boards.

*The results for the ASRock Phantom Gaming 6 in these graphs are all with the quad channel memory.
