Decent aside from annoyances12/7/2020 9:09:28 PM

Pros: -CPU and GPU ran fine -Board looks nice and has a good amount of USB ports on the back -RGB

Cons: -USB ports would randomly disconnect and reconnect, has been a problem for others seen on reviews from another site -Compatible ram list isn't too great and required a BIOS Update through a USB device for it to even boot with my ram

Overall Review: Board worked fine in all of its key features but a big flaw that I personally had is the USB ports cutting in and out at random. I noticed it happened more with more USB devices plugged in but even with just the base keyboard and mouse it would still randomly happen. I've seen other reviews of the board on another site mentioning the same thing happening to them. I've swapped motherboards with the exact same parts and it doesn't happen anymore so it was definitely something with the board. It's possible it only happens to certain setups or to a few bad boards but be careful that there is a possibility of it happening. If it was a combination of certain parts that did it, I was using: -AMD Ryzen 9 5900X -G.SKILL Trident Z Nero 32GB 3600 (4 x 8GB) -EVGA RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Marc M., I'm sorry to hear that you were having persistent USB errors with this board. All ASUS products undergo intensive quality control, testing and inspections. What you've experienced was not intentional or representative of our brand. I understand that you have resolved the issue by switching motherboards, but can you please provide me with the serial number of your original board? I'd like to investigate this for quality control. Please reach out to me at cl-lane@asus.com and include case #N2012026863 in your email for reference. Thank you for choosing ASUS! Best regards, Lane ASUS Customer Loyalty – US Support

Amazing Board10/19/2020 12:23:45 PM

Pros: 8 + 4 pin CPU power for extreme overclocking USB Type C USB 3.2 Gen 2 2 Addressable RGB gen 2 headers 6 SATA ports Slightly reinforced PCIe slots What you expect from ROG aesthetics

Cons: Chassis fan 2 and 3 header positioning Q Fan and software for Ryujin conflicting

Overall Review: With: Ryzen 5 3600 (waiting for 5000 series) ASUS ROG Ryujin 360 AIO G.Skill Trident Z Neo 3600 CL16 4 x 8GB Intel 660p 1TB M.2 Seagate Firecuda 2TB ASUS ROG RX5700XT 8GB OC 1 - PCIe 4.0 x 16, 2 ARGB headers, USB 3.2 gen 2 header, heatsinks everywhere, LCD POST code readout and boot LEDs by DRAM were my favorite features coming from the Prime B350 lineup. The most issues I had were trying to get the Q Fan Control to stop trying to monitor my cpu fan but Ryujin has that problem and won't put blame on the motherboard. Even with the reinforced slots, a support for a heavy GPU is still advised as the 5700XT still sags a tiny bit.

Good overall but have error code 8d occasionally10/15/2020 8:31:23 AM

Pros: Bought this board to pair with my 3900x and the build was pleasant, easy to set up

Cons: Occasionally running into 8d error code after I changed the CPU voltage in the BIOS. Seems to be an RAM compatibility issue. Restarting the system works. The RAM I used Trident Neo 3600 C18 16GB*2

Overall Review: My build: Ryzen R9 3900x ASUS B550-E Trident Neo 3600 C18 16GB*2 Samsung 970 evo 256GB Noctua D15s EVGA XC Gaming 2080 Super Phanteks Revolt x 1200w Platinum Bequiet case 500

USB Issues3/25/2021 11:10:21 AM

Overall Review: Everything was working great for about two weeks before the USB ports would suddenly completely stop working. Right smack in the middle of work, I couldn't use the keyboard and mouse, even though the computer was on and operational. After several days of trying to get a solution I couldn't put any more time on it because work was starting to pile up. I returned it and got a full refund. Asus says it's a software issue and they may have already put out an update for it but I couldn't wait any longer. Definitely check to see if the update was issued.

Manufacturer Response:

Great featureful Board1/18/2021 1:56:54 PM

Pros: Lots of features Good overclocking headroom Supports a Ryzen 5600X without issue No silly chipset fan that could fail down the road.

Cons: Firmware seems to have an issue where the embedded Aura lights do not turn off when the system powers off. The bios is set correctly, but those darn lights turn back on while the system is off. Looking forward to a fix.

Overall Review: Compare with the B550-F equivalent, as it is cheaper. If you plan on overclocking, get this over that one.
