Pros: Tons of IO options. Good looking. Easy set up. Well placed fan headers. Asus has good bios support (already at 4 for this board). Performance seams to be okay, will need more time to evaluate. will probably update this review in the future.

Cons: Priced a little high compared with competitors. Should have at least 2 more fan headers. Software is so-so Does not report temperature or core voltage accurately. Aura controls are a part of Armor Crate unless you download off of web site and are less robust.

Overall Review: Have it paired with a R9 3900X. Having everything on "auto" in the bios yields 4400 MHZ observed in boost speeds and an all core between 4 GHz and 4.2 GHz. The way the 3000 series handle boost is a bit wonky, and some software seems to cause these processors to remain in the boost state regardless of load. Growing Pains! CPUZ isn't reporting voltage accurately either. VRM quality on most of these X570 boards do seem to extract a bit more performance out of these chips. Build: R9 3900X ROG Strix x570-E 32 Gig G.Skill Trident Z 3200MHz Strix Vega 56 500 Gig WD Black NVMe, 1TB WD Blue SATA SSD Toshiba 4TB, 5TB HD's Corsair RM850 PSU Cooler Master ML240R cooler Phanteks Enthoo Pro M SE case

Pros: A lot of USB ports. 8 SATA ports (a must for my build preference). Stable (only after using RAM that is listed as compatible). Nice looking. Hefty, solid feel.

Cons: If you have some random stability issues, check your RAM for compatibility. ~Explained~ After initial build it seemed solid for about a week, then began to freeze at random times (sometimes at idle just doing file management, sometimes at 100% load). Over time it became more unstable and eventually unusable. I had upgraded from an X-99 build and used my old DDR4 3000 RAM. Decided to see if it was on the motherboard compatibility list on Asus's website and it was NOT. I bought some RAM that IS on the QVL and what do you know, 100% stable all the time over a month now. *Asus Armory Crate setting in the BIOS actually injects an .exe file INTO the operating system at boot unless disabled. Bad Asus, Bad.

Overall Review: I have been building systems since 1999, and have done well over 1000 builds (literally). I therefore should have checked the RAM compatibility before blindly using my old RAM. However I was unable to afford new RAM initially so it was more of a "hope it works" situation. This board turned out to be a solid pick after making sure to use RAM that is actually on the QVL from Asus's website. 100% load for extended periods and stable always now. My case has 6 external drive bays and am still using a SATA drive for the OS, therefore a motherboard with 8 SATA ports was necessary for my build. The board boots a little slower (about 7 seconds) than my old (still in use) Z-97 build. Looking at why it seems to be a DDR4 specific POST time increase that is universal and, apparently, unavoidable. I therefore will not deduct an egg from the board, as it is a DDR4 universal problem. Running a R7 3700X with a Noctua NH-D14 is better on this than it was with a Z-97 build because RAM of the same height clears the cooler on an AM4 (Trident Z) but would not on a Z-97 (Trident X). Going from the Wraith Prism to a Noctua NH-D14 made a noticeable difference in overall performance and temps system wide (as it keeps the internal case temps lower). Waited till I could hash out any problems (was all RAM) and verify it is a stable, solid build before posting a review. Overall I would recommend the board if you pay attention to and therefore avoid the cons. Build: Strix X570-E (latest BIOS and drivers) 16 GB Trident-Z 3600 (CL 16-16-16) R7 3700X Noctua NH-D14 GTX 970 Samsung 850 Pro 256 Multiple HDD EVGA 750 Supernova G2 Win 10 Pro

Pros: Built quality. All the features and extras. Great for upgrading over the years with new CPU or extra RAM.

Cons: Not a hardware con but a software one. Make sure you update to the latest bios/firmware using the Asus website and not the Asus software that you install or you'll be behind many months.

Overall Review: Amazing board.

Pros: +Easy to use Wifi Connection +Easy to use Blutooth Connection +Blazing Fast M.2Nvme +Stable ROCK SOLID Perfomance

Cons: - I wish it had more M.2Nvme Drives. - Doesn't support a Microsoft Server OS.

Overall Review: It's been 6 years since my last build but the most notable features are the Wifi/Blutooth Connectivity and the 2 M.2Nvme SSD slots. The Wifi and Blutooth connectivity are very easy to establish and work Perfectly, I have my Router on the other side of my apartment and the connection still perform like a Wired connection. I opted for a quality Headset instead of speakers for this build and bought a Blutooth compatible set, it too seems to have no limits as far as distance. However, the biggest difference in performance from my last build is the M.2Nvme Drives. Stuff downloads so fast sometimes you hardly see the display screen open up before it's finished. The Original bios is steady enough but I updated to the latest and had to download the Driver off the site for the M.2Nvme drives. After all was said and done the performance is ROCK SOLID and I am totally satisfied with the outcome.

Pros: 2-M.2 4x4 8-SATA's Duel Nic's, one a 2.5 lots of USB 3.2 gen 2's Runs super, using AMD 9 3900X w/Corsair Hydro Series H100i PRO cooler, 32GB G.SKILL Trident Z Neo (For AMD Ryzen) Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR 3200, Patriot Viper Gaming VP4100 M.2 2280 1TB PCIe Gen4 x4. Runs very cool OC @ 4250 60C running XPlane11 with graphics maxed @FHD 40-50fps Using an old Nvidia 1080 graphics card Never say never, I thought I'd be upgrading my old Z97 w/i7 with a new intel system but seeing the new AMD x570 offering & 9 3900x with PCIe 4.0 was hard to not consider.

Cons: no Thunderbolt

Overall Review: I like it. Would buy again. AMD has won the Super Bowl of systems this year.

Overall Review: Really great board and been using Asus since my first board. One small problem I had was south chipset were overheating and crashing in bios or when playing games. Noticed that thermal pad was not applied on top of the chipset and was miss placed by long shot. Causing my chipset to go up to 113C and crash. maybe a bad batch I guess. That is the only reason for 4 stars cause took me a week to figure out it was the chipset not my ram stick as each time crashing motherboard reports of bad ram and etc ...

Overall Review: This is a lightning fast motherboard as far as motherboards go. And despite folks having "troubles updating bios" that can all be summed up as extreme user-error. I had zero issues. BIOS update is as simple as just following the basic steps to flash it.

Pros: can take any processor you throw at it and keeps its cool . I has all you need really....but read the Cons now

Cons: Well... after using Crate to update the Bios the mobo went bananas... black sceen end doesn t post at all , I tried everything snd I mean everything , swapped gpu's Cpu's power units, took everything off and tried flash back but NOTHING... bios chip must be compromised and replaced I believe. Got in touch with Newegg and they told me to talk to ASSUS, ASUS keeps telling me to talk to Newegg , Newegg told me that item is still under the 3 year warranty but they don't cover it...ASUS tells me again that is the seller responsibility now to deal with my issue... I am buying another X570 (not ASUS)

Overall Review: Asus products are usually fairly good, but when something goes really wrong you are on your own, their customer support is just unreal... there is a highly incompetent guy (Peter S.) at ASUS that replies to your emails without knowing what is talking about, Does he even read the emails you send him? Sure he does but he doesn't know what he's doing. I had to deal with this Peter S. , and he gave me some unrelated advice to fix an initial problem I had with this very same Mobo...
