Good but problematic..

I bought this a month ago now, and it was running GREAT! But one afternoon when I got home I turned on my pc and now it shows Q code d6 which means no video graphics card detected! However after trying every SINGLE THING I COULD DO TO TRY AND MAKE IT WORK... Nothing. I tried every different graphics card I have in my pile of pc parts. Nothing. So after all this, I hope to be able to get a new one sent to me asap.

Great for Overclocking

I bought this motherboard not to long ago and I want to try overclocking. it brought my 11900k from 5.0ghz to 5.3ghz boost. Also i tried it on my ram aswell went from 3200 cl16 to 3600 cl16. The Q code reader makes it easy to find and address problems aswell and its aesthetically pleasing to look at the motherboard
