I like cheap motherboards.
Or if not cheap, it must support ECC.

That just might be the one to do massive USB RAID 0

Why do USB raid 0 when you can do Sata Raid 0

What is in my signature is all that I need. I gave my gaming monitor to my grandson as my oldest daughter bought me this Samsung 32" monitor.. It has been rock solid except the psu went out a week ago. I do not see myself building another computer for some years to come.

Please answer your favorite motherboard
Design, performance, memories, etc.
Any reason is fine.
By the way, I like the GIGABYTE Z690 AORUS Xtreme

My Asrock AM4 B550M is the fourth board from this manufacturer I've owned and they have all been excellent quality.

While I like my ASRock B550M-ITX/ac, the Intel 3168 WIFI+BT is garbage. I knew the wifi was slow and the range sucked even with the antennas. I don't use it so no problem. But the BT being flaky as hell grinds my gears because I use multiple BT devices.

It does not require a windows update for it to suddenly throw a failed to start error in device mangler. It will work for a few boots then fail again. Different driver versions, removing it and the drivers, including scouring the registry, do not help. Nor does disabling enabling or anything else like not letting windows turn it off to save power.

Want to know the fix? I leave it as is with the failed to start error and turn the PC off. Plug in a generic USB BT radio. Boot to desktop. Use the generic until it stops working. And it will stop working. When I check the mangler, the Intel is now fully functional and the USB BT has the error. I hardly use it now because it is the slowest of my 3. I'll swap in a better M.2 when I get around to it.

Don't know if I have a favorite. Currently have an MSI B850 Tomahawk WiFi Max waiting for parts and 2 Gigabyte boards in systems (B550 and 10th gen Intel Aorus Elite). I'm glad BIOS flashback seems to be standard now. I'd like to see 7 segment displays, something like the Asus Q connector, and some kind of EZ latch for GPU and M2 on boards that cost less than $300+.
