There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Comes with alot of auto softwares. Alot of downloads for bios and softwares. Which can be turned off at bios but at same time it's useful, just another thing for computer to deal with at start up.
Struggling to turn off RGB after computer shuts down. Tried a few different methods.... none seem to work yet.
It does take a long time to load up when first turned on. Before entering into windows.... compared to a gigabyte board.
I’m currently running a 7700x in eco mode and some G.Skill Flare X5 Series DDR5 6000 CL30 in EXPO mode. It has been fantastic for about a month. I have no perceptible coil whine on my board and boot times are very quick. The first boot took longer while when it trained the ram but since then, very fast.
I would have no issues in recommending this board.
My only criticism is the price...The premium for ITX is way too high. I sincerely believe ITX is going to be the new norm for desktop systems but cost has to come down. All manufacturers are charging over the odds but I feel Asus leads the way. There are also question marks of Asus warranty and repair record but fortunately I have not needed to engage with them in this manner. I feel it was a gamble but that it has paid off.
That said, I have no complaints so far. It's a fully featured motherboard and was easy to work with.

M.2 Shield
new builders do not have to worry about installing a M.2 Standoff wrong in the main slot, you can simply plug the M.2 in, put it into the already installed standoff, and flick the lever to close it in, and of course put back on the very cool looking M.2 Shield.
PCIE
The graphics card button release is also a very nice feature since I only had to open it and plug in the graphics card. I in the future if I upgraded the graphics card, I wouldn't have to worry about trying to jam my fingers in trying to open the slot, you can simply use the provided button. Again, Major props to the designer for adding these.
IO Shield + WIFI
Furthermore the IO shield is preinstalled so no worries about installing the motherboard without it.
Not to mention the built in WIFI only adds to the appeal of the board, the provided antenna is very nicely magnetised, so when you attach the cable and wonder where you could put the antenna with no space, turns out you can actually attach the antenna to any metal surface IE, your PC Case, which is what I have done.
Cons (if you can call it that lol)
Only *small* downside would be the covers for the AIO_PUMP and CPU_FAN were extremely hard to remove, and it took me to use tweezers in the end to take one off.
Summary
Overall, I think everybody can tell that this board has one con to many pros and is amazing value for only the £199.99 that I paid.
+points for the consistent white/grey aesthetic throughout Asus's white range of parts which complimented my graphics card nicely.

Reviewed in Spain on 6 July 2024
Avendo cambiato quasi tutto l'hardware insieme alla scheda madre non posso dire se le prestazioni tra questa e i competitors sono migliori o meno però posso dire che è stata facile da montare, per tutta la durata dell'assemblaggio non mi ha mai dato l'impressione di essere fragile. L'installazione è stata facilissima e non ho mai avuto problemi di spazio
Il chipset B650 con supporto AM5 garantisce l'installazione di tutti gli AMD più moderni.
La connessione WiFi l'ho solo per qualche giorno mentre aspettavo di dare accesso al cavo ethernet e non ho avuto problemi nè di lentezza nè di stabilità.
Essendo che anche l'occhio vuole la sua fetta devo dire che a parer mio esteticamente è una bomba non solo per grafiche e colori ma anche a livello di materiali si vede che non è una MOBO cheap.
In conclusione, è una scheda madre eccezionale che consiglio vivamente a chiunque voglia assemblare un pc AMD potente e affidabile. Il rapporto qualità-prezzo nella sua fascia lo reputo ottimo. Non posso che darle 5 stelle
