It’s excellent for a number of use cases. I bought this for gaming build actually. The thing I wanted this board for was the Thunderbolt because I have a thunderbolt audio interface that I use for streaming, etc. works terrific. Looks fantastic if that matters. Expandability that I will probably never fully optimize. It’s everything that it claims to be. Wish they made an ITX Pro Art? The small form factor case is all the rage these days and it would be cool to see them do this in a smaller form factor just in case you only needed like one pcie and 2 dimm slots etc
