With the release of the new Intel platform, ASUS decided to repeat the same thing, but only with the search for the incredible.

It’s worth noting that while we’re reviewing the Aorus Pro DDR5 model, there’s also a DDR4 version. Sadly, though it’s easily found in my native Australia, is not available in the US or the EU.
