How do you guys refer to as ‘low-tier’ Z590 boards? Pricing or brand?

Actually considering a Z590I board myself for my new build with the Intel 11th gen chip.

Some retailers selling the 11900KF for 2.1k and 11900K for 2.3k with bundle of course - really no brainer to get this over the 5800X which is 2.3k.

What the reviewers on YouTube are not factoring is the inflation of the Ryzen chips, non 10th Gen users and the price of 11th Gen chips in other markets.

Personally no bias towards Intel or AMD's Ryzen chips, but it the price of 11th Gen is just too good to pass on vs the current Ryzen price now.

Yes, Missing Something Inside! Still better than Gigabyte crap I'm using.
If you like Gigabyte crappy BIOS, go for it.

If only I saw this way earlier, would've opted for an Asus motherboard instead. Gigabyte's BIOS is a real pain indeed doh.gif
