It's 'basic' because it favors component quality over feature quantity.

exactly. its not and rgb potato with gaming and some carbon wrap stuck on. its the reel deel that's stripped down for pure speed like race car  all the good shit is under the hood.

I like aesthetics on my mobo, I'm not "racing" it and most mobo's come with quality components anyway.

BMW 3 series = quality engine = reg board

GTR = top-quality engine = SOC Champion

could careless, not doing pro overclocking. Need a basic OC and something nice to look at. This mobo doesn't offer that so it's not for me. I need RGB and a laser light show ftw!

Aw man a SOC Force, if this was in the US i'd pick one up. I'd wanted to buy a Z170X-SOC Force but their hard to find now

The new Z270X-Gaming SOC looks dumb imo, no more "Force" now.

Well, use 1.35V or higher, you should be able to hit 4.5GHz

Yeah, late 2015 and 2016 Haswell-Es are amazing overclockers
