No firsthand experience but seems like the best deal on a, according to some online reviews, good x570 mb I've seen in a while. Nice VRM apparently.

edit: maybe best deal is too strong, but seems like a good x570 board for a good price

I bought this at microcenter for same price. It was $149 down from $209 with the Processor/MB combo. The guy I talked to there recommended this one over the ASUS Tuf x570 MB. He said this one was better with overclocking. I have not done my build yet to know. For sub $200, you are really down to this and the ASUS Tuf x570.

Is your microcenter purchase eligible for the $20 Gigabyte rebate like Newegg has? That would be even better.

Really wish the WiFi model was included in this deal. Oh well. I shouldn't need the WiFi.

I'm looking at the Ripjaws V DDR4-3600MHz CL16-19-19-39 1.35V 16GB (2x8GB) RAM [gskill.com] but this board is surprisingly not supported for QVL. Should I expect any issues running that RAM at its native 3600 MHz on this board?

I don't trust mail-in rebates.

Memory Capabilities for Ryzen is more CPU issue. Anything use Zen or Zen + would have hard time go to 3600 even pump in more voltages. If you use 3rd gen Ryzen, no problem

Not a answer to your question, but if your not dead set on 3600, crucial ballistix is what I have found for second and third gen ryzen to be headache free and work at advertised speeds of 3000 or 3200. No 3600 yet with that but crucial I am expecting will have one soon.
