apologies, i wouldnt mind onboard wifi as that has bluetooth with it too which is very useful.Do you have other prerequisites, like a particularly dominant color for the PCB, or onboard wireless, or anything other than good VRMs and RGB?

This is a very good mid range board with four M.2 NVME slots, 2 aRGB 3 pin headers, 2 Aura RGB 4 pin headers, 13 USB ports and a 12 phase VRM with 90a mosfets.
many thanks for your recommendation but i feel the onbaord lighting is not enough.
many thanks for your replyOh. You WANT MSI? So, strictly going off the hardware capabilities, yes, they do pretty well. IF that is all you care about. If not, then maybe, look at other alternatives. And ASUS, well, they just don't give a dang about making users happy. At all. Believe me. I have bought several generations worth of "Hero" boards, and then me and many others here have over the last couple of years, learned that they do NOT value you, at all. And, they will eventually make things right, but it's too much hassle.
So. This.

For MSI.
If you can look past their shady practices, then, pretty much they have the better mid range hardware. Otherwise, they suffer.
