The motherboard is really nice. I bought it to pair with a Ryzen 5 8500g, 32gb ram ddr5 6000 mhz, 1tb SSD. The set-up is pink because I bought it for my girlfriend. I've no concerns about the motherboard. It an Asus product so there's no problem installing pieces. I didn't have to upgrade the bios, it came working everything.

No soy una persona muy conocedora de placas base, esta es mi primera vez que armo una computadora.Les puedo dar, desde mi punto de vista debido a esta experiencia que tuve, los pro's y contras que veo, quiza haya más pero tampoco soy un experto jejePro's:* Actualizar la BIOS de la placa base es relativamente sencillo, únicamente necesitan un USB vacío, dirigirse a la pagina de soporte de ASUS, descargar el archivo y ejecutar un script que viene incluido para meter únicamente ese archivo en el USB y finalmente conectarlo como lo indica el manual y seguir los pasos para la actualización de BIOS.* En la página de soporte vienen los drivers necesarios, pero incluso al momento de iniciar windows se instala Armoury Crate que igualmente te deja descargar los drivers desde ahi.* Viene con todo lo necesario para instalar1 SSD NVME, pero tiene otra ranura para instalar otra.Contra's:* No tiene LED's de Indicadores o Buzzers, eso si, es compatible con Q-Led Core, que es un sistema que te indica mediante LED's posibles problemas con tu instalación, instale mal la RAM, simplemente no la inserte del todo (como mencione anteriormente es mi primera build y como escuche un clic), bien este sistema solo esta disponible si tu gabinete tiene algún LED de ese tipo, en la placa base no hay ningún LED más que el de actualización de la BIOS y el Ethernet, por lo que recomendaría que si compran esta placa, busquen un gabinete con ese tipo de tecnología o busquen una versión que si tenga estos indicadores, creanme que estuve horas desconectando y reconectando cables pensando que conecte algo mal, hasta que quite las RAM y las volvi a insertar.* La antena de WiFi requiere si o si, el driver, por lo que al instalar Windows tendrás que estar conectado al Ethernet para proceder con la instalación.Finalmente veo que que es una buena Motherboard, obviamente le veo que estara dentro del gabinete un buen tiempo y me dara chance de actualizar en futuros años tanto con los procesadores AMD y con las GPU's que vayan saliendo (Por ahi leí que a pesar que ya hay puertos PCIE Gen 5 y esta los tiene, aun las GPU de Nvidia y AMD siguen con PCIE Gen 4), la recomiendo si sabes armar computadoras y estas completamente seguro que las armas a la primera, si eres alguien novato como yo... la recomiendo a medias, es buena, pero sin indicadores no puedes saber que instalaste mal y para descubrirlo te puedes tomar demasiado tiempo y arriesgarte a dañar algo que estaba bien.Les comparto mi build, para que sepan que es compatible jeje* Ryzen 5 7600X (Investigando dicen que de fabrica es compatible, pero por mi mala instalación de RAM actualice la BIOS, asi que no les sabria garantizar)* 32 GB RAM 5200 Mhz Kingston Fury* 1 TB SSD NVME M.2 Crucial P3 (5000Mbs lectura 4000mbs escritura)* Corsair Nautilus 360 RS (Refrigeración líquida) (Quiza un poco mucho overkill para este procesador pero jeje, me gano el gusto de probar una)* PSU Corsair RM1000e Gold Plus (Lo encontre en oferta y si en algun momento futuro quisiera actualizar el PC, se que voy a andar sobrado)* Gabinete NZXT H6 Flow (Esto es otro de mis gustos culposo)* No me ha llegado todavia, por lo que no la he podido instalar, pero la GPU es una RX 7800 XT de 16 GB

This motherboard has been fantastic for my Ryzen build. Setup was smooth, and the BIOS Flashback feature made updates hassle-free. The DDR5 support and PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots ensure great performance, while the 2.5Gb LAN and WiFi 6E deliver fast and reliable connectivity. I also appreciate the USB Type-C port and Thunderbolt 4 header for future-proofing. Everything runs efficiently, and it’s been stable with no issues so far. If you're looking for a reliable motherboard with modern features and excellent performance, this one is a great choice!

It’s a good board, haven’t had issues with it. I saw some bad reviews earlier in December so I was a little nervous, but purchased brand new with an Arctic cooling system it meets my expectations. Also looks sleek and nice. Worth my money.

I purchased the board along with 32gb of6400 ram. I attempted to add 2 more sticks of the same ram and the board would not work. I took it to a computer professional to toubleshoot the issue. They confirmed my problem and told me there were numerous complaints about the same problem. The board is capable of more than the 32gb I originally installed. If you think you may want more than 32gb then buy it as the original memory to be installed in sockets 1 and 3. Performance wise the board has been flawless. I have a Ryzen 9 7900 with Samsung 990 NVME and 32gb of ram. I have an Asus GeForce 4070 Super dual fan video card. Passmark benchmark for this system is 12339 and paces it in the 98% rating. I gave the board a 4 rating because of the memory issue.

The MB has "a faulty power connectors on it," (every time when PSU gets plugged in, the MB starts up automatically). It was confirmed by ASUS chat tech support rep and the fact that ASUS company accepted my return with full refund back to my account. But: I want to say that my 2nd MB (exactly the same as the returned one, but purchased from Amazon.com) has the same problem! Both of them were produced in Vietnam with 1 month difference - the returned one in 2024-07, and a new one in 2024-06. There is something wrong with ASUS production line over there. However, I really like this MB with all its advanced features. I managed to deal with this annoying nuisance problem: I think there is always a certain tiny amount of charge left in the MB circuit even after I shut down the OS and turn off completely my PSU. How did I manage to deal with it? I do the following every time BEFORE I switch my PSU on - I push and hold my PC's "Start" button. I believe it kinda discharges the MB completely. And then I turn ON my PSU. As a result, after that my PC works like a charm, as it is supposed to be, ie. pushing the start button and then the OS starts up. I hope my info helps any person to deal with this, I repeat, annoying problem.

My old computer, which I purchased in 2012 was getting past it. So I decide to build a new system, being a 90's era Windows fanboy building a PC is a piece of cake. Normally.I selected this Asus board, the Ax2 version for the build, the reviews seemed good. I was careful to select the m.2, ram and CPU from the approved list.When I installed the board and components a couple of problems became quickly evident.The Sata SSD drive that my OS was on could not be recognized in the bios, they would appear on a list of connected devices... but they would not appear on the boot list. I say they because I also tried an older spare drive.While problem solving this a second problem became evident... my fan wasn’t working and the CPU temp reached just over 90C very quickly.I tried another spare fan and both CPU headers were non functional. However as a workaround I was able to connect my Cooler Master fan to another fan header.So I tried to call ASUS... they don't support motherboards over the phone. Period. I was turned away. Let that sink in people... you won’t get anywhere near someone you can verify as human.I tried the ASUS online chat, the support person told me that I would have to sign up for something called Just Answers to get support.Now I was frustrated when I did this and I did not read the fine print, I thought I was paying a token $2 fee. However the two dollar fee was a sign-up fee. I was also charged $70 for a couple of copy paste answers to the problem.To be clear I did try everything on the list of things to try. Some I couldn’t do however because there are settings that you can select in the bios to get it to recognize the drives... however all of those settings were grayed out, such as CSM. Even a bios update did nothing.I decided to buy a device that holds the m.2 and plugs into the USB... using a different computer I cloned my OS onto the new m.2 drive. Even that didn’t work in either slot, I couldn’t get it to recognize any drive at all.Now while I was problem solving this I found a video on YouTube that said with this board...“Ïf CSM item is not user-configurable and shows in grey, please install an add-on Graphics card and CSM item will turn configurable”To be clear... I did carefully choose the CPU based on the fact that it DID have onboard graphics, and I did have a couple of graphics cards on hand however I did some digging and found that neither of my cards were good enough, apparently “you need a dedicated video card that supports VBIOS”Now nobody from ASUS... not even the guy who took 70 bucks from me for a minutes work. None of them told me that. They had led me round in circles.This is unacceptable, expecting someone to have to buy a high priced graphics card just to make a motherboard work. Disgusting.Now I have returned the board, I will never buy ASUS again. Ever.Update 22nd April...I have replaced the Asus board with a cheaper Asrock board, the B650M PG Lightning Wifi. Thus far it is working well and has no coil whine.However when I went to select CSM I was able to select it, however when I exited BIOS it would restart and default back to CSM being off. But at least I was able to select CSM which told me it was working unlike the Asus board which support couldn't tell me if it was working or not. Who knows?So this lead me to do some research as to why my drive wasn't being recognized, it turns out for the last few years legacy support for old hard drive formats has been removed.Now what is shocking is how no one told me this. I contacted Asus several times and even paid the 70 bucks for third party support, they all knew I was using an old SSD and none of them said... "Hey Matt... the reason you can't use you existing drive is because it needs reformatting, there is a free Windows utility that does it, all you have to do is google "Convert an existing Windows 10 Installation from Legacy BIOS to UEFI" and follow the simple instructions"To be clear NO ONE told me that, even the troubleshooting video on YouTube mentioned nothing.So Asus still gets an F for their support for telling me nothing that I needed to know and only some things that I didn't need to know.
