This is on many higher end enthusiast/overclocking type motherboards, I’ve had it on multiple MSI and Gigabyte boards.
NZXT has always been some really mediocre stuff at ridiculous markup, I don't have literally any faith in this statement
Isn't asrock asus
it was spun-off from asus in '02, then acquired by a different spin-off in '10 which asus retains significant ownership of. so, yea, basically asrock is their "discount" brand,
ASRock makes high end server parts that Asus has no equivalent.

Not exactly. They were created out of Asus and are still related somehow, but I don't know the details.
+1 for MSI. I've bought GPUs from them for 10+ years and never once had a failure or even a minor issue. Got a lot of mileage out of the GTX 1080 I bought in 2016.
Oof, my MSI 1080 died after allmost six years of service.
My first hardware death in 20 years of building my own systems, other than a drive.
Can’t blame them for it. It truly did its job, so I went with them again for my 3080.
I liked ASrock when they were in the ECS tier of quirky and weird. Got a Socket 939 board with the ULi M1695 chipset that was really nifty.
Then I had an awful experience with an AM3 board that claimed to run a FX-8350, until they edited their support list.
I grudgingly chose them for AM5 because it was $50 cheaper for the featured I wanted, and it's been okay, aside from me breaking the x16 slot clip due to hamfistedly removing a shipping-container sized GPU.
Thanks! This will be helpful next time I have to upgrade my PC
