Looking for a good motherboard for your mid range setup? Not ready to fork over the money for that X870E? Need lots of USB ports? Here, my friend, is your motherboard.Now, is it a tad expensive? A little. But it's worth it. It's quality is absolutely amazing, and you can feel just how well made this thing before you take it out of the static bag. The pins are all labeled and easy to identify. And for all you storage lovers out there -- 4 SATA/HDD ports and three SSD ports, with one handling your Samsung Gen 5!There's also a ridiculous amount of RGB headers. I forgot how many there were exactly

Very nice motherboard

Straightforward installation

This is a great MOBO. The modern Type-C buses are super nice to have, multiple NVME slots. If you plan to run multiple GPUs make sure your case is large enough. Only beef I have with ASUS is that the Armory Crate software is hot garbage. Seriously. They moved Aura Sync into Armory Crate so just to run the LED drivers you need almost 3 GB of SDKs and frameworks to use it with the native app. It requests multiple admin permissions on startup. Why? The software hogs resources during runtime. Needs updates otherwise it breaks. Won’t download and apply updates correctly due to tight system permissi

I ordered this motherboard as I was planning on upgrading my 8-year-old AMD 3700/Geforce 2060 system. The first motherboard arrived with the packaging severely damaged. This was not a shipping issue; the entire box looked like it had gone through some difficult times. So I did not trust what was inside the box. I requested a new motherboard while sending the first one back. The new board arrived two days later. I was excited. I put the PC together, and the CPU fan was only turning its lights on, but not spinning. Removed and reseated the CPU fan, and that started working. However, one of the e

The motherboard is very beautiful, everything works smoothly on it and I didn't have to do any bios update for it to recognize my R5 9600x, I don't give 5 stars because it looked completely sealed but the security holder of the port CPU_OPT came broken, fortunately I haven't needed it so far.It is not the most modern board in the market but it's reliable and has good support for recent hardware.The software tho is horrible, it never finished installing but I can open it, AURA doesn't work and never got to personalize my cooler which supposedly had AURA, gotta have to check that in the bios.

Amazing item, highly recommended!!

Onboard audio isn’t the best. Required a DAC AMP solution to get decent enough audio for gaming. Other than that flawless product
