pci-e gen 4 not working (causing crashing after installing gpu drivers), forces users to use pci-e gen 3 for the time being
several months of attempted bios fixes, none work
Gigabyte give in, conceed that it is a hardware defect, owners are allowed to return z690i aorus ultra boards for z690i aorus ultra plus (actually a few upgrades, namely wifi6 > wifi 6e) but the announcement was fairly silent (basically the only people who knew were the people who knew what the problem was and was following the story)
old ultraboards are rebranded as ultra lite, advertises that its gen 3 speeds only and sold for ~80$ less
If you really want an overclocked server for some reason, there are m.2 cards that offer lots of SATA ports that you could install

Alternatively, Asus ROG Z690-I is $185, but that board has its own issue as well, namely piss poor cooler compatibility (probably why you ever will see a ROG board this cheap) and lately Asus support has been a joke.

I don't have the patience to wait that long for one component
but if you do then this is a good deal on an itx board.
