I replaced an old MSI motherboard purely because I needed a board with x8/x8 PCI-E slots so I could connect two graphics cards and the listing says this motherboard is compatible with Windows 10 but the WiFi and Bluetooth are definitely not, which makes it worse than the old motherboard in that case. I've had to buy an external WiFi and Bluetooth connectors so I can use my keyboard and Xbox controller. Other than that, this is a very good motherboard with a lot of useful features, the BIOS in particular is almost labyrinthine in how many options is has! The lighting looks very nice too. I've not encountered any stability or boot issues, everything worked on first power up (other than the WiFi/Bluetooth). If you're on Windows 11 this is probably the best motherboard you can get, especially if you want to run multiple GPUs for AI workloads, but if you're on Windows 10, do bear in mind that WiFi and Bluetooth won't work. ## Frequently Bought Together - ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero AMD X870E AM5 ATX Motherboard, Advanced AI PC Ready, 18+2+2 Power Stages, DDR5, PCIe® 5.0, 5X M.2, Wi-Fi 7, USB4®, AI Overclocking, Core Flex, PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim - AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16-Core Processor - Samsung 990 PRO SSD 4TB PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 Internal Solid State Hard Drive, Seq.
