I run Unraid on this motherboard because it has 4 PCI-E 4.0 M2 slots, two PCI-E 3.0 x4 electrical slots for storage controllers or 10gb network, a 5.0 x16 for a gpu or storage, and a 3.0 x1 I use with a dual 2.5GB Intel I226-V nic. That connectivity makes it a unicorn.

Love that idea! What processor are you pairing this with?
I am thinking of getting this, my build is about a year old, Microcenter had a bundle with 1270 and free Acer Z690, the Acer board is a pos, went through three of them each with different issues, I ended up keeping this one because it had least problems and MC was giving me a hard time. This one doesn't let me go into the bios screen. Acer has none for exchange, I am trying to get a compatible board from them now, if I can't I will replace the board with a MSI. Question, am I paying extra for these LED lights? Thanks

Not sure if this is true for acer, but I've had good luck on other motherboards with difficult bios by using the windows troubleshooter to boot to efi bios rather than trying to hit a button during POST. I think you just hold down ctrl when you reboot and it will go into troubleshoot mode and give the option to boot to bios.

Cause ddr4 can still be for cheap if you have an old kit So you doing have to invest in more kits
No need to ditch it unless you really have no prospects of selling it
