Wanted to say I find inclusion  of motherboard template a stroke of genius. It might seem small thing on the surface, or to others, but it is a huge help to me, I love it. Kudos to whoever came up with it and to EVGA for doing it.
 
… and while we are talking about small things that might make a huge difference in overall customer experience may I suggest sticker on motherboard bag telling you which version of firmware it has on it?
 
I am looking at mine and wondering will I be able to get it up and running with my 10900X as it is or I will have to request replacement BIOS is mailed. Knowing answer to that without having to assemble everything together just to see which version is in would save everyone lots of time, hassle and work if version is not high enough.

Just do a "bread box" build outside of the case. Hell use the blank pcb and tall standoffs, do a minimal build outside of case and see if the led shows df.

Also check to see if your bios selector is in the far right position.

I think the template came out of some of us "tinkerers" asking...., ok begging , TiN for a circuits poster like he had in the evga video they did with Gamers Nexus showing off some prototypes etc... When he got done laughing at us we ended up with the template which was a cool compromise.

Whatever the reason is I am grateful for it :)

My FAVORITE accessory on any motherboard, ever.
