review for - Z170A Krait Gaming 3XThe main reason i purchased this was because it had all the necessary features i needed, was the same colors of the build i was planning, and it was on sale.I didn't have any issues getting things up and going on it, though it does boot slightly slower than my previous m-power board without the fast boot enabled. Everything connected fine and all components (aside from the m.3 slot and usb 2.0 headers which weren't tested) work fine without issue. One thing i will say, that has been said before, is this board doesn't have any screw holes on the far right side of the board. this means that you will have a bit of bend while installing the MB power adapter. You should also remove the mounts on that side so they are not just sitting on the back of the board.The bios is well laid out for the most part all except the fan profile which you can't get to under advanced settings for some reason. Speaking about the bios, the reason for 4 star instead of 5 star is an issue with the adaptive or offset mode inside the bios for the v-core. i didn't have any issues reaching 4.6 on an 6700k with this board however if i set the vcore to adaptive mode it will drop the multiplier to 4.4 during certain stress testing situations but not others for some unknown reason. Let me be clear that this is a completely stable overclock if i force it to run at the v-core i set with the override setting. Using the override setting i can essentially stress test indefinably and constantly remain at 4.6 even with the multiplier set to adaptive. I am unsure what is causing this issue but i spoke to someone else who also had this board and they had the exact same issue. Even with the issue in any real world application (not stress test) it does indeed run at 4.6 the way that it is suppose to as far as i can tell. If i was running into the issue in a real program i might have returned the board, but as it stands i haven't seen it react this was except in this extreme situation.aesthetically it looks great and i couldn't be happier with it. the black and white matches perfectly with my s340 case and everything flows really nicely.performance wise as i said above there has been a small issue, but at the same time the board didn't have any trouble with getting the card to 4.6. honestly i was using much less power to do it than i assumed i would have needed. It could be that i won the silicon lottery but either way this board does a decent if not slightly flawed job at overclocking. I also have a 1070 installed in it, and while i'm not going to test the pci slots directly they seem to be performing just as id expect them to.The only other con that i can see in this board is that i could use a few more usb slots on the rear pannel and a few more fan headers on the board itself. These are things that are clearly advertised and i knew before purchasing so no points off there.All in all this board is very satisfactory and has been able to do everything that i needed it to do. considering that i got it on sale i don't regret my purchase at all. If you are considering buying this board understand that it does have some quirks, but really its a good buy for the price. I'd recommend this product to anyone looking for a reasonable board with decent features at a good price point.
