I love working with products like this.

Pros are the blue tooth and wireless built in. They board also allows flexibility in storge types

I was upgrading two PCs to run Windows 11. Inexpensive with plenty of USB 2 and 3 ports. Meets my needs - I am not a gamer

This is a really nice, currently running smoothly, Intel LGA1700 board, from ASUS via Newegg. The manufacture date printed on the box is 2025-04, and existing BIOS version was up to date for 14th gen Intel Core CPU. Not a single problem installing and setting up in an ATX case with DDR5, various other parts, fans, M.2 SSDs, HDD drive, BluRay burner etc. On-board Intel AX201 WiFi works great. I downloaded BIOS updates , Drivers and (ASUS AISuite 3) direct from ASUS website. . After I had it up and running I used ASUS' free download of "ASUS DriverHub" to check for further driver updates. I'm very happy with this board and ASUS. Would absolutely buy again. Only real shocker was the price of 32GB DDR5 - costs more than the board does, go figure.

Great high end mobo for bleeding edge components (when purchased). Combined with a Core 7 265k, 48gb of UDIMM memory and an RTX 5080 it has been rock solid as a gaming machine.

I've been building PCs since the swap meet heydays of the 80s. This motherboard is built like military grade hardware, and the layout is perfect. Building a PC around it was a walk in the park. It supports a ton of standards. The ever improving ASUS BIOS is a joy to use.

Easy to set up, lots of options plenty of m.2 slots. Tons of fan headers and rbg headers too.

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

Working fine, no doubts.

- My first time building a PC using this motherboard but it went really well. Everything is labelled nicely and even * for the RAM so you know which slots need to be utilized. - CPU easy to install, also nicely labelled - easy to know where to plug in power supply cables for the LED/RGB lights, especially if this is your first time just take a moment and ready around the motherboard.

Excellent performance

-Stable -Plug and Play -great compatibility -good IO -easy to use bios -all m.2 slots cant be used without taking lanes from your GPU

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.

- 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.

Runs great for gaming: Ive put in plenty of long sessions and it stays cool the whole time. Everything feels smooth and stable, even when Im playing for hours. Feels really solid: When youre building with it, the board just feels sturdy. Im running a big GPU and had zero worries it feels like it can handle anything you throw at it. No issues online: Networkings been solid for me. Whether Im plugged in or on Wi-Fi, my connection stays stable and I dont get random drops during games.

All the stuff I bought (CPU, memory, M.2, cooler) all fit without any issues. I used a Noctua NH-D12L cooler and it easily cleared the RGB G.Skill memories. I was also able to use the 6Tb RAID 5 set from the old motherboard (different manufacturer) and it plays fine in Windows 11. CPU runs cool (38) and the system is very quiet in general (not that my old ears would detect much anyway). Installation of the vendor specific drivers through Gigabyte Control Center was easy and I was able to avoid the unwanted baggage (virus app etc).

Flawless. Easy to build with. Great aesthetics. Post lights. Awesome Bios

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.

I went with this Motherboard because it had all the features I needed/wanted and the black aesthetics as you'll be able to see with the system I'm building. The quality of this board is absolutely perfect, that's another reason I went with MSI as they have been around for a long time. Everything was pretty easy to install and get everything going/working, with this board, just do your research before hand to make sure you do not have compatibility issues and read some instructions. You can find out all the info on the MSI support site. So, I have only had this running for a short while and I have no complaints. I will update this once I have used it for a few months, other than that I am a happy MSI customer.
