I think this is ready to be one of the most popular motherboards in the Z490 market as a whole, not just those from MSI. No RGB certainly has some appeal, it feels like a “new” idea haha. However, for the price, you get all the premium features you’ll want for a high-end gaming PC build, and the board looks and performs great too.
