REGARDING ORDER AND DELIVERY: I suggest that before you order any expensive item from Amazon, plan to be present for the delivery as best you can. This involves tracking your package and watching your e-mail for the one-time six digit security code you'll need to tell the driver. My code arrived about the same time the package was sent out for delivery. The driver arrived at my door one hour after my package was sent out for delivery. Your miles may vary. My overall experience with secure the delivery process was good. The product arrived with two other expensive items -- all three were packaged into one box. Nothing was damaged. FUNCTIONALITY The motherboard works great. I've seen reviews regarding issues getting this board to work. Admittedly, I had some concern; but, I experienced no issues; I've never had issues with ASUS motherboards not booting, because I've ALWAYS downloaded and read the mother board guide AND selected processors and RAM from ASUS' Qualified Vendors List (QVL); otherwise, even ASUS will tell you: There's no guarantee your board will work with non-QVL parts. Installing two RAM sticks into the correct bank of slots is kinda important...right? So...mind the manual and QVL. [ Lecture over. :-) ] I installed VENGEANCE® RGB 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 DRAM 5600MT/s CL36. The system booted flawlessly the first time...no issues. BIOS There's a new version out there. Isn't there always? I followed the 'destructions' - flashing came off without a hitch. CPU COOLING I'm running a NOCTUA NH-D15 air cooler on a RYZEN 9 7900X. I've used this air cooler on two other builds over the years and it works great, even under heavy loads. Check Gamers Nexus and other reputable reviewers on cooling fan performance for more information and you'll find that NOCTUA is almost as good as a water cooler. (I like air. I tell my wife all the time: I'm not a plumber...don't want to be a plumber.) In any case, The system at idle with default fan settings shows 47C. Under load, a bit hotter, but this particular CPU is designed to run hot. Make sure your case has good ventilation. The BIOS on this motherboard will allow you to configure custom cooling fan profiles and any other tweaking / overclocking you want. 'nuf said. CASE FIT & SYSTEM FUNCTION/PERFORMANCE I installed this motherboard into a CORSAIR FRAME 4000D RS case...with an extra fan for rear exhaust. Oh my...this modular case made assembly easy. Productivity apps and games run great...and it's pretty too...built for my wife. This board fit the all white theme.

Quick and painless setup with multiple 5v jacks along the right side and bottom of the board for fans. Good setup for a glass case where you want to hide the wires as much as possible. Quality build and the solder job on the PCB doesn’t look bad. Had a few issues with drivers but eventually got it squared away. I like that it has so many M.2 storage slots for expanded storage (games are becoming massive) - PSA I did have an issue with games stuttering horribly because I had an Ethernet cable connected and the WiFi on my PC turned on at the same time so it was bouncing connections back and forth and disconnecting my controllers. Turned WiFi off and got a flawless gaming experience immediately.

Very good motherboard i used it to build my first pc and it is amazing, the boot time is really fast and it is very stable and you can control how cool you want the pc by downloading armoury crate

If you can get it on sale, it's great value, I'd 100% recommend it, it's safe for X3D CPUs, and asus BIOS allows for good tweakings, just keep in mind it's not fully white, more like silverish, still looks great, good VRMs for pretty much any CPU, and good hearsinks, connectivity wise is good, not great, but if you need a lot of USB ports, just get something else. The manual is also easy to understand, but I wouldn't recommend building without a tutorial. Can handle high speed memory, and the heat sinks are beefy for your primary SSD, BIOS is easy to update and shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes. Overall great if it's on sale or you want some entry level ROG experience.

It is awesome and just as presented. ASUS makes really good boards for gamers...like me.

Very good stable board

I just installed Windows 11 on another building with an Asrock mobo. I thought Asus would be just as easy. Nope. Windows requested the LAN driver. Luckily, I was able to load the driver on another stick from my secondary PC. Installation was normal after that. So far, no crashes and the system is stable. There is a sufficient number of headers for fans and 3 addressable RGB headers. I do like the quick release lever for the Gen 5 NVME mount, makes it so much easier to install or change out the NVME SSD. Pros Looks great! Plenty of fan headers and 3 addressable RGB headers Quick release M.2 heatsink - easy to install/reinstall or change NVME SSDs 1 Gen 5 and 3 Gen 4 M.2 mounts Cons Must have LAN or Wifi drivers on another USB drive ready prior to Windows installation

CPU cooling towers can cover the ram. Other than that it's great! Not enough reason to knock it a star.

Excellent

Luce increíble estéticamente, y da mucho plus en sus funcionamiento. Definitivamente la mejor MB que he adquirido hasta ahora. (Asus casi siempre es garantía)

Ottima scheda madre..

I am running an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and an NVIDIA RTX 5080 with 2 x 32GB of DDR5 6000MHz TeamGroup T-Create RAM. I used to have an MSI X870 Tomahawk WiFi, but I kept running into major issues across multiple BIOS versions. I basically had to pick and choose my problems: with one BIOS version, my WiFi would work but I would lose an M.2 slot. With another version, the M.2 slot would show up but the WiFi would drop out. On top of that, every single first boot of the day would fail; I would have to manually reset the PC just to get it to post. I finally got tired of the headaches and replaced it with this ASUS ROG Strix B850-A Gaming WiFi board, and the difference is night and day. It feels so much more premium than the MSI board, and everything works exactly as it should out of the box. My WiFi is perfect, and all 4 of my M.2 slots are up and running simultaneously. The BIOS layout is also much more familiar, clean, and professional compared to MSI's interface. As a huge bonus, my GPU runs at a full x16 speed instead of dropping to x8. On a lot of other motherboards out there, if you populate all the M.2 slots, it forces your graphics card down to x8 lanes, but not on this board. It literally feels like I have a brand-new PC now—it is incredibly stable and runs much faster. I always used to use ASUS motherboards for all my personal builds, but I strayed away this one time to try MSI and deeply regretted it. I am officially back with ASUS for good. Highly recommended!
