I am looking at mini itx motherboards and I was wondering what's the difference between their motherboards

To add to this I think I just had a brand new Gigabyte Z270 board eat shit on me fresh out of the box. Chalk one up for ASUS!


Edit: an hour an a half of testing and I definitely received a dud. On topic, I would also consider AsRock as an alternative. I've owned more of their boards than any of late and they have been rock solid for me.

I'm just looking for a board with no LED lights and a monochrome color scheme with all the latest and greatest features

Even if it has RGB you can turn it off - that's the case with the ASUS board above from personal experience can't speak for the Gigabyte board.
