ASUS ROG STRIX B360-I GAMING LGA1151 (300 Series) DDR4 DP HDMI M.2 Mini-ITX Motherboard

Pros: Put in the processor and memory, installed it in a Phanteks Evolve Shift, hooked up the water cooler and it started and ran flawlessly. Had to set the SPD speed manually but otherwise easy as it gets. Don't expect any overclocking so don't use an expensive K processor. The BIOS is typical ASUS perfection and the AI Suite software works like it should, minus the overclocking apps.

Cons: The tiny screws that hold on the heatsink over the front m.2 port strip easily.

Overall Review: I build a lot of custom systems and use ASUS motherboard almost exclusively. Their BIOS are easy to use and glitch free and the AI Suite software, especially the Fan Expert means I don't have to spend long hours configuring things. This board is no different. It just works. Sometimes that's all you want.

Pros: B360 chip set is cheaper option if you don't plan to overclock, ideal for small form factor builds. Stable right out of box, BIOS is comprehensive and easy to use Wide range of memory compatibility with Intel Processors Supports 2 M.2 2280 NVME / SATA III drives. Has adapter to install 2260 and 2242 drives. Set my memory to it's rated speed of 2400 Mhz easily on this board RGB's are pretty. Option to turn them of in the BIOS which I did. Got it on sale

Cons: More fan headers would be nice. Most mini ITX boards only have the one case fan header so no big deal there. B360 only supports 2133, 2400, and 2666* Mhz memory. 2666 only if you use an I-5 or better. Really not that big of a deal depending on what you're building the system to do. You want more memory speed, go with the Z chipset. Pricey but I know the ROG STRIX boards are worth the extra money, even in the B chipset series.

Overall Review: I've been using Asus boards almost exclusively for 20 years now in my builds. I haven't had to RMA a single Asus board. From my 30+ years experience in computer repair I can tell you that Asus motherboards "just work" without lots of hassle. Very rarely are they hard to set up. I'm A+ certified and build systems for friends, family, and clients. I've had clients give me back the systems I built them 10 years ago with Asus motherboards when they upgrade to a new build. The old systems are still running perfectly. I built two small form factor systems for my Grandkids with the Asus ROG STRIX B360i Gaming as the platform and they are awesome. Build sheet is as follows in case you'd like to build one of these systems. Silverstone Milo SST-ML09B case, Asus ROG STRIX B360i Gaming motherboard, Intel I-3 8100 with stock cooler, Corsair Vengeance LPX 2400 Mhz 16GB Memory kit, Corsair SF450 SFX power supply, Samsung 970 Evo NVME PCIe 3.0 X 4 M.2 as boot drive, Mushkin Enhanced Reactor 1TB 2.5 SSD as game and backup drive (I've had good luck with these drives), Gigabyte GTX 1050ti OC Low profile video card. Small, fast, quiet, and wireless was my goal. I'd never try overclock in that tiny 7 liter case so the B360i and the low TDP I-3 8100 are the perfect choice for that build. Take it from a pro, you'll like this board if you're building a small system.

Pros: I've only built mid atx PC's and I wanted to make a stealth build so I went with this motherboard -not bad on the wallet -bios is straight forward but also has advanced features -pairs amazingly with the new 6 core i5's and i7's if you're building a low cost pc or if you're a first time build I definitely recommend this board

Cons: none really

Overall Review: be sure you buy the right cooling to fit this board

Pros: Just as described, Love it. On time shipping and new product

Overall Review: 10/10

Pros: Everything I wanted to use all in one board. Has lots of features and wifi comes with it.

Cons: Ordering this board was bad, I had to get mean to get them to ship me the board.

Overall Review: I will never order from BTC again and they owe me an apology. This is the best motherboard of it's time for the money that I spent and it should have come with the rest of the computer that I built so that I didn't have to wait a week to build it.

Pros: Asus brand PCie m.2 x2 Great design Bios upgrade very easy RGB itx

Cons: None

Overall Review: I recommend this mobo for everyone. (Bought Silverstone ML08 case with it which is perfect with SFX-L PSU)

Pros: Customer satisfaction, Responsiveness

Cons: None
