This review for ASRock review rebate program. Everything runs well and board is high quality with a good amount of connectivity.



Great stuff. Make sure to go into the Realtek audio settings and turn the amp setting up if you have high impedance headphones like me. Was initially disappointed the volume level was so low, and found out they have different amp settings in the app.



Was up to last months BIOS. I used I7-13700K with two 16 GB 5600 MT/s DDR5 modules and a Samsung SSD card with Corsair RM1000x ATX Power supply, Arctic liquid freezer II 280 (which was a squeeze into the top of a new Phanteks Enthoo Pro) and it all works great with Windows 11 Pro, running cool 45 degrees C under normal loads.



The motherboard is a pro in itself!!! Absolute perfection in a motherboard as I expected from ASUS!!!

Compact but still relatively easy to work with. Works with 14th-gen CPUs after a BIOS update.

Great Design in Glass Case

Flash Bios USB Port + Button, Instant Driver Support via MSI after OS Install, Solid All Around IMO


-Components have plenty of room to breath -Dark Color of the mother is great for Blackout builds

- Had no problem getting my CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 7200 to run at full speed with XMP right out of the box. No voltage tweaks were necessary. Plenty of headroom for higher frequency as well (up to 7800 MHz). - AI overclocking is surprisingly good, especially if you don't have the patience for a perfect manual overclock. Does it MAYBE use a bit more voltage than a manual overclock? Maybe. But it's incredibly easy (literally 1 button), and more importantly, it was immediately stable. The AI overclock set my 13900k to 61/60/60/58/58/57/57/57 and 46 on all efficiency cores. Passed Prime95 and Intel XTU stress tests for several hours, never crashes in games, CPU temps between 88-92c at 100% load with the Noctua NH-U12S in a 76-degree air-conditioned room. Acceptable for sure. This is better than what I was able to do manually. Maybe I suck at overclocking? Who knows, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who just wants an insanely fast PC without the headache. ASUS sold me on this feature pretty quickly after turning it on. For the casual enthusiast who doesn't need hyper-granular control of every single CPU setting, get a good cooler, and just turn AI overclocking on. You won't be disappointed.

I replaced a bad MSI board. Instruction manual was easy to read, and overall the machine performance seems a bit better than the busted MSI Board. Love the pcie 5.0 release button. Drivers are packaged to install at first boot. So far running great.

- Fantastic overclocking capabilities - VRMs work very cool even under heavy load - Lots of m.2 slots, lots of USB ports - Supports top of the line DDR5 memory - Robust and nice looking design - Processors perform really well even without an overclock - RGB looks nice

Sturdy board. You get a lot for your money. No hitches, everything works well. I did update the bios and all drivers right from the get go. Set the xmp & G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB DDR4 3600 up and running with no issues. i7 12700K with a Noctua NH-D15 chromax sets nice on the board. 8 case fans, 4 are ARGB, and the lighting controls works fine also. A little bit of light, but not a disco box.
