  • Update: Buyer Beware - good for the money. Fits in Thermaltake Core V21 Cube Computer Chassis
Update: BUYER BEWARE I've used this for a few months now, and upgraded the memory to 128 GB and the CPU to i9-10900. I have FOUR (now) negative issues to report: 1. Prior to (and after) the memory and CPU upgrades, the USB constantly stops and restarts so my keyboard and mouse die and come back off and on all day with +/- 20 second gaps where they're gone. I also have four external drives connected via USB 3 so they die and come back too. I'm VERY tired of this. If the fact that I'm using all the USB ports is an issue then the board shouldn't have so many USB ports. This is doubled down by dealing with a (new) Corsair K63 Wireless keyboard, which is AMAZING -- when it works and when Windows can find it--which is about three or four times each day, and also which is NEVER when you boot to the BIOS. 2. I have two monitors plugged in. One uses the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 via an HDMI port and the other monitor uses an onboard HDMI port. During the day +/- five times, the monitors will shut off and the display will move to only one monitor. This also happened when I had both monitors plugged into the RTX 2070. I'd hoped that by plugging one into the card and one into the motherboard this would stop but it hasn't. 3. After the memory upgrade, and before (and after) the CPU upgrade, I get 2+ daily BSODs with the stopcode: KERNEL_HEAP_MODE_CORRUPTION. I've been working on this issue for over a week with no resolution even though I'm following numerous guides online about software removal, video card driver updates and rollbacks, etc. 4. This is a KILLER (and I love ASUS -- but I'm getting tired of ASUS issues). We have gigabit internet, and with my previous PC ( a big bada boom Origin PC) I would get 800+ MBPS on average. After beginning to use this ASUS ROG Strix with a "2.5gb" network connection and Wi-Fi 6 (whatever), I never got over 300 MBPS. I contacted my ISP and they identified damage to our line outside from the box to the house, that a signal was getting into the line. They ran new line from the box to our house and then new line into the house. No improvement at this computer even though the tech showed me him getting 980 MBPS from our modem (Netgear CM1000), and from our router (Netgear Nighthawk) --both gigabit equipment. Our ISP requires a DOCSIS 3.0 32x8 to get gigabit internet so we bought an ASUS CM-32_AC2600 Modem Router (which removes one device from the loop by combining the modem and router. My work Macbook Pro gets 291 MBPS on 2.6 wifi. This ASUS, WIRED cannot get over 40 MBPS, and it is worse if I use the wifi 6 that is supposed to be so great. It isn't. I've tried changing ethernet speed from Auto duplex to 1 gig and even 2.5 gig with no change. I added a 1 gig ethernet card and it gets even worse connectivity--so there is an issue with this board. I'm replacing this board with an ASUS Maximus and hope it is better. UPDATE ON PERFORMANCE vs. PREVIOUS ROCKSTAR ORIGIN PC: My previous Origin PC beat this PC in reliability hands down. Origin knew what they were doing when they built my previous machine. Of course I don't have their skill set but by putting together compatible components as I did with my above build it should have worked. Nothing I did was bleeding edge but everything is behaving like it is bleeding edge. I love how fast and great this ASUS Z490G runs now as a 128 GB memory, i9-10900, RTX 2070 PC on Windows 10 Pro, but the UNreliability of this makes this experience way less than great whether I'm working or getting my a-- handed to me in COD before it BSODs mid-game at night or BSODs mid-day at work. I'm considering returning this board for a diff LGA 1200 that is more reliable and will take all my components. ORIGINAL REVIEW I love ASUS motherboards and their amazing BIOS capabilities. ASUS ROG Strix Z490-G Gaming (WiFi 6) Z490 LGA 1200 (Intel 10th Gen) SFF Micro ATX Gaming Motherboard is a very powerful motherboard right now, at a superb price, and it is loaded with features. The ASUS ROG Strix Z490-G Motherboard fits perfectly inside the Thermaltake Core V21 SPCC Micro ATX Cube Computer Chassis like they were designed on the same machine and built next to each other in the same factory. EVERYTHING FITS PERFECTLY: Screws, I/O panel, everything. After decades of building PCs I fully expected to be disappointed with the fit of the MB on the risers/offsets (lining up with mounting holes for screws), and I really was expecting the I/O panel in the back would not line up and would be the wrong size by a mm here and an mm there. Wrong. They fit like they were made for each other. Bravo ASUS and bravo Thermaltake. If you're into aesthetics this thing is beautiful in real life. When I opened the box, took off the static bag, and set it on my desk I was in awe. My other PC is based on an ASUS Rampage V Extreme and it is very nice, but this ASUS ROG Strix Z490-G is like a supermodel. This is being built with a 1TB NVMe SSD for the OS, RAID HDDs for data, 64GB Corsair DDR4 memory kit, Intel Core i5-10400 CPU, a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 Windforce 8G Graphics Card, and an 850w Gold Thermaltake PSU. This gives me the most power for the memory for the money now (I'll always take more memory and a smaller CPU). Later I can upgrade the CPU to i9 or the memory 128GB. If I remember to, I'll come back later with notes on performance. I can't wait to compare this to my other PC. it's an OriginPC with ASUS Rampage V Extreme, 80GB memory, Nvidia GTX GeForce 980Ti 6GB, Intel Core i7 5820K Hex-Core 3.3GHz, 512GB Samsung 850 Pro Series SSD for OS. ... show more

  • Does not work with Nvidia 4070 and Asus will not provide support
I've enjoyed this motherboard for the past 3 years. It's still under warranty, so when I found that Nvidia's new 4070 graphics card didn't work in this motherboard but it did in a newer motherboard I contacted support. Asus said that the product was not on their list of supported graphics cards. They suggested that I buy a supported graphics card. That list of supported graphics cards doesn't have anything newer than 2021 on it. What good is a warranty if they won't provide support through the full warranty period? I will have a hard time trusting Asus after this experience. ... show more

  • Awesome MB, But one thing to consider
I have had great experience with this motherboard, what is there to say. It gives you what you need in a modern high tier gaming world. But since the GPU's that are being created as of late continue to get bigger, I came across a lot of unnecessary obstructions protruding from the motherboard that could potentially effect the buyers choice after dealing with this 1 particular issue. It is the RGB block that lights up on the left hand side of the board, and the pointy end of it goes all the way down right above where the GPU slot is. I currently put a 1660 Super in the slot, and I had to snug the back plate against the pointy end of the block just to fit it in fully, which scratched the backplate pretty badly, and I was careful. As of right now I managed to snag a 3060 Ti and I am hoping that it will be able to fit in the motherboard without any changes because these new GPU's are quite big and long. ... show more

  • Full feature mATX still exists.... For now
Asus engineering here shines bright, as mATX continues to fall out of favor there are fewer full featured boards at this form factor available. This was basically it for a board that supported 2 full 16x slots and a bonus 1x slot, 4 sticks of RAM and current generation processors. The board doesn't officially support PCIe gen4 but when intel releases the next generation of chips maybe it will get a check speed bump even if not all the way up to gen4 speeds, but chances are if you need to build a computer today and your considering Intel, gen4 support is probably not important, or you would be buying an AMD board. I have a Corsair crystal mATX case i modified to fit a full custom water loop solution in with a GTX 1080ti in it, there was no way i was walking away from all that work and this board has everything you could ask for in it. Gen4 support is not important, my old asus board died after 8 years so I'm looking forward to having this in service for 5-8 years as well. ... show more

  • Exceeding Expectations
Mid-range mATX z490 boards are very slim, basically coming down to this and the MSI. I chose the Asus for it's superior power delivery and I'm happy I did. It looks great, functions flawlessly, is full featured, the bios is simple and straightforward, and is extremely stable, even when overclocked. - Asus ROG z490g MB - i5 10600k CPU (oc'd to 5ghz, p95 stable) - MSI 2060 GPU - Vulcan 32gb 3200mhz RAM - EK 240 d-rgb CPU cooler (intake) - Corsair 650xx PSU - Thermaltake v21(?) Case - 2 x 140mm Arctic fans (intake) - 1 x 140mm Arctic fan (exhaust) - 1 x 200mm Thermaltake fan (exhaust) Other than the Asus bloatware/malware, the z490g is phenomenal board that is exceeded expectations. I believe it to be the best mATX option in the price range. ... show more

  • Worked flawlessly out of the box. Great motherboard!
Even WiFi installed properly along with a fresh copy of Windows. My only *minor* complaint about this board is it is hard to screw down the upper left of the board behind the I/O panel. There's very little room there. I managed to finagle in a screw eventually, but this was just me being fussy since I could have easily left it resting on this post without being screwed in in that spot. The bios flashed effortlessly and the upgrade was definitely worthwhile as it added lots of features. ... show more
