The board has decent reviews at Amazon ($259.99) and newegg ($269.99). This platform is heavily reliant on PCIE lanes integral to the CPU, which are affected by the specific CPU you install (lower end 2011v3 chips have 24 PCIE lanes vs 40 on higher end), so there are negative reviews based on people being unaware that PCIE slots are available with an m.2 PCIEx4 SSD/NVME installed, which will disable the bottom PCIE slot. This is typical across all X99 motherboards.
