• Falsely advertised chipset

This motherboard uses a different chipset than the one advertised by the vendor. In most cases, a lower tier chipset was used in order to save costs. It is likely that the board may not have the same levels of performance as one equipped with genuine parts.

Beware that issues regarding BIOS and driver compatibility may arise as well, so double check with any hardware reporting software what chipset is actually installed on the board before proceeding any further.
