ASUS Offers
Free Monster Hunter Wilds for select Asus Motherboard purchase; mostly z890 boards. Double check the board you are interested in is eligible. Ends March 31

I picked up the 265K + the Asus z890M prime motherboard for $430+tax
Not sure which DRM the Intel games use; the Asus one says it is a Steam code.
Yes, if you are a gamer 9800x3d is generally better. I game in 4K so open to trying Intel this time especially for the price. There are better motherboards available for Intel too, especially if you are building in itx (e.g Asrock nova z890i)
