What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.8 for now.

It features four DDR5 DIMM slots (up to 192GB, 7600+ MHz OC), a PCIe 4.0 x16 Safeslot for GPUs, and dual M.2 slots (one PCIe 4.0 x4). Its main pros include built-in WiFi 6, front and rear USB 5Gbps Type-C ports, and comprehensive cooling with VRM and PCH heatsinks. However, cons include a basic Realtek 1Gb Ethernet port instead of 2.5Gb, a relatively weak VRM setup that may limit the performance of high-TDP CPUs like the Ryzen 9 under heavy multicore loads, and a limited number of high-speed rear USB ports.
