Worked without having to update the bios on my ryzen 7 5700x Bluetooth is a big plus for me and why I went with this model
Super fast ethernet and wifi Extremely premium feel Everything is super easy to operate with ez latches for like everything Installed like any other motherboard but with cables in the back. IO shield pre-attached Super clean Good vrms
Asus quality all connections are easy to get to except the power for the case.
Easy bios for kids No longer eatx Does 8000 stable ddr5 -vsoc 1.1 vddio 1.45 fclk 2000 Easy
Easy set up basic function delivered well
Fits all the features you want in a small package -Supports USB4 -Supports Wifi7 -Lots of temp sensors on the board and temps look great all around -Tool free install on the SSD is a nice touch. -Easy connect/disconnect on the GPU/PCI slot is a nice touch. -The built in cooler for the SSD works great.
Does exactly what its suppose to do. Simple and quick set up. Worked great plug and play for Ryzen 7 3700X. This review for ASRock review rebate program
I am glad I paid a bit of extra for a brand new product. It has 3x m2 slots, with a massive, shared heat spreader plate. Has some features to ease installation, e.g. an easy access button to "Eject" the video card, "click" locks for m2 cards ( vs the usual stand-off and screw) . Using it with a Zen 5 series Ryzen 7 CPU, installation was fairly easy. I think it is worth it to step up to B850 from B650, I had endless trouble with the latter. Comes with a nifty little caddy/adapter to make it easier to hook up the front panel lights and switches. It is a little plastic "spacer" that the individual connectors snap into. You can then just plug in the whole contraption into the motherboard. Hard to describe, but will make sense once you see it. Because of the thick heat spreaders, it is pretty heavy.
- Excellent build quality (Integrated rear IO panel is a peak quality of life feature) - PCIe 5.0 x16 AND M.2 storage at the affordable price point is awesome. - Can handle the insanely powerful 7800X3D without problems - The 5.0 M.2 slot has an included heat sink with great thermal pads. All three slots having a screwless installation method is amazing. - Very ample fan header count, same goes for ARGB headers - The drivers install super easily - The wifi is theoretically upgradeable for the future - The UEFI is easy to navigate - The board has a UEFI Flashback
-luxury M.2 expansion -10G network adapter -enough power supply for at least 7950X
Excellent compatibility with Ryzen 7000 series, including the 7800X3D. DDR5 RAM support up to 6000MHz with easy XMP profile activation. PCIe 5.0 and Gen 4 NVMe support for future-proofing. Built-in WiFi 6E and Bluetooth connectivity. Good VRM cooling and overall stable performance. Clean layout and modern design.
The board has decent I/O, is easy to work with and install. The bios GUI is well thought out. Integrated WIFI 7 chipset is extremely fast and stable.
Great instruction pamphlet to show exactly where every header is Clean black/silver aesthetic should match most builds It's Tuf
Has most of the bells and whistles you are looking for for a new build utilizing a 9800x3d. Double USB-C port on the back was what made me move in this direction as opposed to the similarly priced LiveMixer B850. Many M.2 slots will make future expansion a breeze.
-No lane sharing -All black for my build -Easy BIOS
Good board easy setup plenty of ports and expandable to what ever I need in future
Hefty in a good way. Prime NMVe slot has a slide-release toggle for the heatsink cover, and a quick-connect. Good modularity for where extra accessories can be connected. Amazing selection of USB ports, and the I/O plate is pre-installed for a cleaner look (I come from an older era)
-Butter zone of price to features (at least if you're not planning on deep overclocking) -The toolless NVMe latches were a great surprise for me. This is my first MoBo with them and not having to worry about dropping those tiny screws was great. -All drivers except WiFi and Bluetooth were auto installed by Windows making the initial OS setup a breeze.
The pro's are the Debug Led and the ez latch etc. Makes it easy to build in and take apart.
