Good motherboard - but not a standard ATX

All in all, I like the motherboard very good. The BIOS and overclocking menu in particular are ordinary sort and in addition to English and German as well in some other languages ​​available. The arrangement of the connections can in my case to excellent cable management, in fact, I can even with the cables installed GPU (R9 290X) and a large CPU cooler plug and unplug without problems. Even the RAM slots are in spite of a fairly large CPU cooler all usable.

Unfortunately, the motherboard does not conform to the standard dimensions ATX. The measures provided for in the housing spacers are not necessarily compatible with this motherboard and I had several really omit. As such, the (for me) would be no problem, since at least one screw could be fixed even in smaller micro ATX distance. Despite missing out on the right side screws that sometimes ensure that flexes the motherboard. Insertion of the 24-pin power supply was downright scary because deformed the motherboard. In my case, reinstallation was necessary anyway, because I did not notice from the outset that the form factor is not enabled by default and so remove unnecessary spacers, and had another, for micro ATX, Add. Unfortunately, the installation is annoying and the designation as ATX motherboard questionable. Because otherwise I had no problems, had kept the motherboard as well and am happy with BIOS and OC options, there are still 4 star.
