Works as intended and looks great. Also ties into iCUE if you want to control the RGB on it.

Not going to waste time with a deep Tech review (i.e. overclocking, jumpers, and drivers). But - if you don't ... check the Vendor's list for compatible memory first - you will suffer a thousand deaths with this MoBo. I'll get straight to the point: CORSAIR VENGEANCE LPX (CMK32GX4M2B3200C16) - running at 3200 MHz is on the list and running at full XMP speed... purchased at Best Buy (not the greatest, buttttt). Take Notes: everything else I've tried, and I have many options, has failed harder than a New York Jets football team (e.g. my Crucial Ballistix 3200 will throttle to SAFE mode, Dominators will not OC, GSkill is a no show on radar)... however, none of my DIMMS are on the list. Can't use random stuff. This is a beautiful Motherboard with crazy love for processor over-clocks, but this 'memory thing' is a nightmare. I dropped down from an X299 board - just to see what the 10700k could handle - and it was pure shock... The thermals and speed are amazing (OC'd). BTW - today's boards will overclock to a percentage (%) - so, I'm not able to give a good reference due to the following: 1. Power Supply - the cheap stuff will throttle 5GHz back to Stock (recommend 850 or better... consider upcoming Ampere and Navi cards). Power draw is serious with the LGA 1200 platform. 2. Air Flow in the case (gone are the days of Micro ATX - I had to go full tower / wind tunnel this round - sorry this doesn't help the budget dude). Plus the new Ampere video cards are monstrous. 3. Limitation of Motherboard OC; I have to admit, this board is delicious on OC (lots of headroom and VRM tweaks) 4. Most important: water, air, or custom CPU cooling; so, if your hideout doesn't have air conditioning or Alaskan weather - don't bet on that flimsy cooler you've been pushing (throttle, buck, dead processor) The BIOS on this board will use A.I. to factor all cooling/quality components - the cheap stuff will cause sadness and reduce intelligence. Overall: well done ASUS, I'm very pleased - but get that freakin' BIOS up-to-date (like 4600 MHz is Breakin' News)

Great 10th gen motherboard for gaming. If your looking to get your moneys worth this is it. There are RGB headers and with the included software it makes it easy to customize your build to your liking.

The media could not be loaded. Motherboards, to be honest unless your building a monster of a PC, these days come down to cosmetics. This motherboard is beautiful, absolutely stunning, I have not added the motherboard yet. I am still waiting for all the computer parts to come in however, this is packaged perfectly. EDIT: I have installed the motherboard and completed my PC. Friendly reminder to not forget to add the spacers for this motherboard!! Our first PC build did not require it and we almost overlooked it with this one. If you forget to add the spacers you will short out the mobo when you turn the system on and you do not want that!!

Ive had this a few months now and so far so good. Honestly not much to say about the board as its been working great to date and hasnt show any issues in regards to how its supposed to work and how it does work. The only real issue I have with the board is, I wish it had a few more usb 3.0 or C connections but aside from that its a robust motherboard with a great feature set that works really well for gaming. No complaints as of yet. Will come back if any issues turn up and update my review if needed.

Trying to go all out on a budgit? That is what I was doing. With this board there is a i710700 and a EVGA RTX2080 Super. I loved this board, it was ez to use and offered no surprizes. Important for a newbie. Posted the first time. I do need to say I am not overclocking at all and don't intend to. I wanted to add the pre installed I/O shield was a plus.

If you have internet that's faster than 200Mbps, this board is not for you! I have Gigabit speeds and the 2.5Gb NIC on this board is only able to hit download speeds of 200Mbps while giving me the gigabit upload speeds. I've tried updating drivers from the ASUS website, I've also installed the drivers from Intel. After doing some research on the Intel NIC that's built into this board, the NIC has a hardware flaw of some kind causing this to happen. To confirm it was the board, I connected the ethernet cable to my laptop and was getting the full gigabit speeds with no problems. Other than the issues with the NIC, the board seems to be alright. I'm not completely pleased with a $250 board having issues like this, but a $30 PCI NIC feels like a better option than trying to RMA it and not being able to use a computer that I just spent $3,500 on. UPDATE 1: I have purchased a PCI NIC and I am getting my gigabit speeds through it. The NIC on this board indeed sucks. UPDATE 2: I was really hoping it was the memory that I put into the board that was causing issues with system stability, but it wasn't. I was having memory issues when I put my entire 128GB kit into the board causing the system to randomly hang. After diagnosing a memory issue, I RMA'd my memory kit thinking there was no way it could be the board. The new memory kit came in and for sure it has to be either the board or the CPU. I'm leaning more towards the board as it's also not detecting any of my case fans. I have a new board on the way for me to verify with. So far the issues I have with this board. The Built-in NIC doesn't support speeds anywhere near advertised. The board isn't detecting fans When maxing the board out with RAM, it becomes very unstable.

It looks great and works perfectly. Paired with a 10850k and 3200 RAM with no problems. The VRMs are cool during max load across all cores. Only downside was the lack of integrated WiFi but I wouldn’t expect it from this category of board.
