Question 1

does this board support addressable RGB?

Accepted Answer

It does not, support addressable rgb. One of it's downsides. Also, just in case you need this information, it will not support 9th generation Intel processors unless you do a bios update. Which you cannot do without a processor intact. it will only black screen on you with a 9th gen CPU. However, If you install a 8th gen CPU, it will prompt to bios, update the bios, then install the 9th gen cpu. then you are good. Learned this first hand. The ASRock website claimed it supports both 8th and 9th gen cpu's, but does not come with the appropriate bios version to run the 8 core 9th gen processors out of the box. I ended up getting an Asus z390-e instead.

Question 2

Can i use i5 9th gen processor ?

Accepted Answer

technically yes. but you will need to do a bios update, in order to do a bios update you need a pre-9th gen processor for the mb to function to even dl and install the updated bios before you can use the 9th gen processors.

I bought this one, and ended up returning it, and getting an Asus ROG motherboard.

do yourself a favor, don't go cheap on the one thing that ALL of your components use to communicate. the motherboard is the backbone of your entire system.

you wouldn't want to use a parachute that's "just good enough"
