Choosing the right motherboard as a gamer can be a difficult experience... and even worse when you're looking for a more professional workflow.  Today we're going to take a look at the MSI MEG X299 Creation motherboard built for content creators, and see what additional features it has, and if it's worth the $599 asking price.

But first... What am I drinking???

Today's brew is from Ninkasi down in Eugene, OR, and I believe it's a new seasonal release for them.  Heart and Science is a NW style Dry-hopped IPA.  6.8% and 48 IBU.  Tons of citrus and floral hoppyness, but without beight either too sweet of too 'dank'.  Honestly, probably a better summer release than a winter seasonal, but very good either way.
