Good Looking Motherboard

he addition of a heavy metal plate at the back and an M.2 SSD heatsink enhances durability and cooling efficiency. Installing an SSD is a breezeno screwdriver needed. The motherboard and CPU fan mount size are compatible with previous generations, eliminating the need for additional upgrades. The new BIOS interface provides more configuration options. Paired with an Ultra i7 processor, the performance nearly matches my i9-14, while temperatures during intensive deep learning tasks have dropped significantly from 70°C to 48°C.

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

I got a mother board that possibly had bad pins on it. It was taken care of with a new one sent right out and now is running well!

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

Well built with quality parts.

Always been of fan of gigabyte brands , 20 years no problems

* 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

Looks great in my white build. Super simple setup!

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

I got this and some ddr5 8000, cranked it up. "everything" clocked faster than the averages on passmark benchmarks. 300$ cpu ultra 265 by 60,200 points or so... right between 1,300$ AND 1,500$ CPUS 600$ gtx 5070 plain jane d3d'd between $2500 4090 and 5090 plain janes at around 89,000 whatevers. got liquid cooling on cpu and haven't seen over 42c on chip so far. made me happy I saved 1000 dollars on a video card. What I saved in graphics and faster processor speeds this mobo paid for itself 10x over already not even mentioning the electrical savings down the road.

Looks nice in my setup and working great

Just finished this build, and I was amazed how everything worked so well at 1st power up. I want to give a shout out to Jayz2cents for his, What to do after the build video. One thing I learned is updating the bios, I did not have to have a 32gb or less USB with fat32 formatting, the new ones can handle exfat, I used a 128gb USB and also downloaded the latest Bios update from the Asus Page, with my 10yr old, and first build, Win10 Desktop, then installed on my new Win11 build, which did not have Windows Op system installed yet. I checked with Asus first because I read several reviews that claimed they had problems with 14Gen CPU's. They had me check my mobo last 4 digits on barcode, I believe, were which bios it had onboard from factory, which were 1658 on mine. Asus said, that would handle 14th Gen, the newest as of right now is 1820. Any way Thanks to Asus and Jayz2cents, power up had no hiccups.

Loaded with what you need at a good price.

Affordable standard motherboard. XMP worked at 3600mhz 14CL.

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!

- Very easy to install everything from components to a large air cooler - No bending at all with a Noctua NH-D15S - Everything booted up on the first try (265K w/ 64GB G Skill Royal Ram) - Clean, easy to use BIOS

- 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.

As usual, at least in my experience, ASUS products have been solid performers. I use ASUS motherboards in all my computer builds, never had one mal-function.
