For those processors, the board performs well. You'll need to adjust the power settings yourself to reach peak performance, since it comes with a 65W TDP built-in. If you intend to use the included cooler, removing limits isn't necessary. Keep in mind it can't support high-end chips like the 10900K or 11900K, which restricts upgrade possibilities. You might consider moving to an 11700F later, but you'll likely hit VRM issues under heavy all-core tasks. For a cost-effective setup, if the price is favorable, it offers solid value.
