I've ordered this mainboard since B850I version is out of stock. The main benefit is that there are 3 m.2 slots instead of 2.
NBB had an impressive delivery time - I've got it delivered in less than 24 hours with the express delivery. What was less impressive is that I've got some third-party ads in the box. I REALLY hope that it'll never happen again.
Pro:
The motherboard looks nice. LEDs are bright and more or less accurate in the color representation. The BIOS is sufficiently feature-rich. Overclocking offers ready-made profiles and is overall pretty good. Wireless adapter works without problems, which is surprising given the brand of the adapter.
Contra:
The BIOS version was pretty old, so 96gb RAM kit didn't POST without an update. Lower SSD slot has pretty inefficient cooling plate, and the middle one has none.
I/O in terms of the USB ports is somewhat underwhelming, check specs before buying.
Software for fan and rgb control looks like a relic from 2004. New RGB software is interested in selling your data, not in letting you to control your RGB.
