    This rant video is largely stream-of-conscious complaint dumping about motherboard prices and the migration of useful features into ever-higher price classes, while less useful bloat pushes out the functionality. Although this may seem excessive for debug displays, it’s an issue we genuinely care about here and firmly believe should be higher priority on motherboard part lists. With how difficult it can be to hit XMP on some of the modern kits, CPUs, and boards, a debug display is more useful than ever — but they’re also just good at eliminating doubt on which component may be failing. After GN recently had to shop for motherboards for test benches, we put together this rant to just get our complaints off the chest. Also, there weren’t any clouds to yell at today.
