    so far its a great board, bios is very clean and easy to OC. its very well laid out and nice to look at. they are lagging behind in the RGB and software suite area but if you are in to overclocking it has some unique features that some of the others dont. price is pretty fair and support has always been a evga plus.

    It is a nice board but you basically must install it in a FULL TOWER case due to the right angle connectors. Mine is in a mid tower and building in it was very difficult due to spacing issues. It also lacks wifi and bluetooth which the competition has at this price point. There are also only x4 USB 3.0 ports on the back, keep that in mind. It really needs a robust software suite as well.
     
    If you want the best support in the industry and outstanding overclocking, then go with the Classified K or FTW K. I have my 6700k running at 4.7GHz currently, I know I can go higher just haven't tried playing around too much with it. Keep in mind your OC ability will also depend on the CPU itself (google silicon lottery)
     
    Check out newegg reviews since there are basically none on Youtube.

    keep in mind that classified boards are alway EATX so while they may fit in most standard mid tower cases they are meant for a larger mid to full tower cases. i love the 90 degree connectors, it makes everything look so much cleaner.
