Generally mine has been solid but I have had several disconnects of one side of zfs mirror on these boards under load, whether poudriere or similar high I/o Db work. It’s always in the same additional NVMe slot tucked away by the cpu.

I expect the thermal cooling is not quite sufficient for the non-gaming abuse I dish out.

The storage has been swapped out and the next batch has the same issue in the same slot, so I think it’s the mobo.

Other than that I like it, lots of USB ports finally and nice cpu speed. I use a fanless KalmX GPU.

A+
