    this is great but...

    there is little difference between the price of x670 and z790

    right now if someone tasked me with a 13th gen Intel ITX build i would recommend buying the rog strix B660 itx board at $200 and flashing the bios.
    i've historically preferred Z and X mobos but now have to separate the gaming enthusiast and the OC enthusiast as the new DDR 5 boards all seem suitable for LN2 (by the old standards).
    so many gamers not only don't OC, they don't want to as they've other fish to fry.
    most OC'ers do game, but then again they're the ones with the sweet rigs, you know the ones that mobos cost as much as enthusiast gpus. but i also preach value when system building, so generally i want most of the ducats to go to the gpu unless i know the person is hardcore.
