This is a very powerful motherboard, there are so many configurations and options in the bios that I don't even know where to start.
Whether this card simply comes with two slots for RAM works well against the stability of the system if you decide to run your memories at a high frequency, I run mine at 7200, and it's stable.
In addition to the advantage of the dimm2 slot where I can install two ssd.
