I took it and put an i5 12600k in it, it fits Cooler Be quiet Shadow Rock 3 And Viper RAM two 8 4400 megahertz everything became normal, works on xmp) when installing the cooler you need to sharpen the collective farm a little with natfil Fasteners, I didn’t sharpen them and tightened them tighter All ! The processor temperature does not rise above 57 degrees Quality When installing Windows there is no Internet, you need to download the Intel network controller driver use MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4 few months |
If options for 1700 appear cheaper than this offer, feel free to take them. I honestly thought for a long time what to write here, my old board from 5 years ago had the same overclocking functionality as this one, only it cost 6k, and this is overpriced game, it costs 10 rubles, and only if it has wifi By default, the overclocking mode is enabled; the system will start the second time, which may scare off many newbies. I will repeat that the firmware is very crude. All support is in English. RAM up to 3600 is not working  Coffin Dancers: use MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4 less than month |
