First off its a $100 motherboard with a big heatsink, BT 5.3, PCIe 5.0, two 4.0 m.2 slots, comes preloaded with WiFi and BT drivers

Easy to install. Awesome dark stealthy aesthetic. Updated BIOS/MFLASH makes updating BIOS easy.

Easy to install booted up immediately with easy to follow bios settings. Board is basic but good power delivery

The company who builds my PC's are very good. They had nothing but issues with the mother board and cpu. Newegg were nothing but great and made things so much easier. I know have a great PC and will be sure to pass along the highest recommendation to everyone I know in the industry.

Don't need update BIOS if your install a 14th gen processor

Stunning White Aesthetic: The standout feature of this motherboard is its sleek and clean white design. It not only brings a fresh look to any build but also stands out in custom PC setups that focus on clean, modern aesthetics. If you're building a white-themed rig, this motherboard is a perfect match. Generous M.2 Slots: With 5 M.2 slots, the Z890-A ensures you'll have ample room for fast storage. What's even more impressive is that 2 of these slots are directly connected to the CPU, offering unparalleled speed and performance, especially for those who need lightning-fast SSD speeds for tasks like video editing or gaming. 6 SATA Slots: If you need even more storage options, the motherboard comes with 6 SATA slots, allowing you to connect multiple drives without worrying about running out of ports. Whether for additional storage or backups, the Z890-A has you covered. Memory Support up to 9066 MT/s: For memory enthusiasts, the ASUS ROG STRIX Z890-A supports memory speeds of up to 9066 MT/s, making it an ideal choice for high-performance applications like gaming, content creation, and heavy multitasking. This ensures the system runs smoothly even under heavy loads. 2x Thunderbolt Ports: The inclusion of 2 Thunderbolt ports is another excellent feature. Thunderbolt 4 provides high-speed data transfer and support for connecting external devices like storage, displays, and even eGPUs, offering impressive versatility for both professional and enthusiast users

* Two M.2 full speed Gen4x4 *Wi-Fi built in *Front USB-C connector (rare at this price) *Good color for a white build like mine. *4 RAM slots *Q-flash BIOS update capable

- extremely sturdy - great built on heatsinks - solid state components in the TUF series

Somehow I bent the pins under the CPU of the 1st MB, don't know how I did that, after getting it back from from ASUS repair center, which it really didn't need because all they did is test startup 50 times & when I got it back the issue was resolved - so just a big waste of time I can't blame on any body else. So that's off my chest, the 2nd Z890-A is working perfectly. No complaints at all. It has plenty of USB's. Room for 2 HDD's, 4 2.5" SSD's & 5 M.2 SSD's. You don't need to be a gamer to get this MB, it will handle whatever you throw at it. I still haven't played with the Audio capabilities it has, or finished moving all my files over to the new PC. It's been a busy Summer. One hack I accidently discovered: I went with an Intel 265KF (no internal graphics), but was planning on getting a GPU any way. Do that and you can save a few bucks on the CPU.

New feature to flash BIOS with no memory was a life saver.

Recommended by another user; great specs and was exactly what I was looking for. Populated it out of the box with 64Gb of RAM - I should never need to upgrade for the life of this machine.

-White/silver accents -Intuitive BIOS -Button to release PCIE slot -WiFi 7 -Debug seven-segment display -on-board buttons for power, reset, BIOS flash


Awesome fun to setup

Product arrived quickly and was fairly straightforward to install into my computer. A friend bought the same motherboard and had to q-flash it in order for it to work, so we did that with mine too, but I don't know if it was necessary for mine. No issues after q-flashing. Works great in my computer

Plenty of I/O, 3 M.2 drives, PCIE5, wifi (haven't tested this yet). Quiet fan curve by default but stays cool, my 250K at 100+ watts is barely over 50, while nothing else on the board is out of the 30's. No issues applying XMP timings. The main workload I bought this for a heavily threaded Python app with a lot pillow usage and perceptual hashing limited by memory bandwidth. This is a whole lot faster than my 11700k and has been rock solid. Probably nothing to stress the 8 phase power delivery, which is fine with me!

the last 2 boards iv installed have had no problems and worked without going to bios and making adjustments. 2 easy well made board, server quality for home use and a good price from newegg.

- Was easy to recover from a failed firmware upgrade due to bad RAM with BIOS flashback feature. - BIOS is easy to use and tune. - Can use EXPO settings for AMD DDR5 on Intel CPU's. - Runs cool. - Plenty of NVME and SATA ports. - Lots of fan headers and expansion options. - Looks good, not overly done with RGB, a little bit that glows from under the GPU is a nice touch.

Good looking white circuits Good compatibility Strong BIOS
