Gigabyte Z370p D3
LGA 1151, Intel Z370, ATX
One of the cheapest ATX Z370 boards at the moment. Has pretty much all the feature needed for a basic/cheap build with OC possibilities and some expansion possibilities. I like the reasonable choice and arrangement of the I/O on the back: basic audio, ethernet, two USB 2.0, four USB 3.0 and HDMI only. Aesthetically the board is clean but the major drawback is the yellow/orange led strip on the bottom left of the board: as far as I tried this cannot be turned off and, in case you plug a led strip on the board to light up your case, the color does not match with the one available on the bios (not full RGB but a couple of predefined colors).
Also I had bad experience with Gigabyte APP CENTER software (the software to control fans and led color for example), it keeps crashing and it's difficult to download the latest correct software because their website is confusing. I had to do lot of workarounds to make it working: definitely not user-friendly and I hope they fix it.
