   I'm a kind of a default person too, I wish for boards that could UC   
   (under clock) things a bit, for less heat and maybe slightly longer life.   
      
   I have loved my ASUS boards a lot, but MSI are dreadful, specially disk   
   storage are slow and needs tweaking to work.   
      
   I have had issues with GPU, but the reason is the computer case, which I   
   had used for quite many years, been loving it, but using PCIe based GPU   
   cards been a pita, it's having the motherboard a bit too low on the port   
   side, which makes the GPU card to not be properly installed, sure you   
   can add a mm on the distances on the port side, but then you may have   
   port a bit covered, so in worst case test things outside the computer   
   case, just be careful to not electrocute yourself.

   Yeah, it's a sane way to test.
