With these new-for-2018 chipsets decloaking, we got our mitts on three new enthusiast-targeted boards based on these “mainstream”-grade chipsets. Our test boards are from ASRock, MSI, and Gigabyte/Aorus, and each is a different form factor. But properly defining what makes for a “mainstream” motherboard in this new chipset reality gets a little complicated–so buckle in and let us explain.

ASUS is one of the biggest names in the PC gaming market, especially their RoG hardware. Of course, there are many fans of their award-winner TUF hardware too!
