    Good motherboard

    The motherboard is of good quality and works perfectly, although when assembling the board the indications may not be visible, which can make assembling the computer rather unintuitive for a beginner or novice assembler.

    Good gamer card

    The card is considered by ldlc to be an office automation card because it is not pcie-4. In fact, according to Tom's Hardware, the advantage of having a pcie-4 is 3% for an rtx 3080. In other words, you won't notice the difference with its big sister, which costs 25 euros more. I've installed an rtx 3060 and it works very well. Better to keep the 25 euros to buy a bit more ram, for example.

    Motherboard

    I'm satisfied with my order because I can finally use the rgb thanks to the addressable port on it. However, I have two sata less but I'll deal with it.
