  • A great budget board for gaming, office or daily-use
Style: mATX Size: TUF GAMING A520M-PLUS WIFI
I bought this motherboard to build a PC for my father-in-law. He races on the weekend, and loves looking back at his recordings. He edits videos and puts them on youtube, then goes back to watch them on a daily basis. When his old PC failed, he wanted to go buy a new one at best buy. As a custom/DIY obsessed geek, I had to convince him to let me build him one and get more performance for his money. After doing some research, I determined the Ryzen lineup was the way to go for budget performance. I'm not very familiar with anything AMD, so this was my first non-intel build. For a PC that didn't need all of the bells and whistles, I wanted to get a board that wouldn't cost a bunch more for a bunch of bells and whistles that would never be used. Once I ran across the ASUS TUF lineup of boards, I was pleasantly surprised by the affordability. Fast forward to the assembly and testing process. I got the board, the rest of the parts, and went right to building. The board seems sturdy, and has the luxury of looking like a high-end board, what with fancy heat sinks, 802.11ac wifi on board, displayport & HDMI outputs, LED headers, and USB-C/Gen 3.1 ports. I grew up in a time where wifi included in a board was only for the highest-end custom build boards. Installation was a breeze. Goes the same as any other board, as expected. The only thing I wasn't expecting was that the DDR4 slots install a bit differently than most other boards. Only one side of release tabs will move, the other side is stationary. Once I figured that out, everything went well. I got it powered up, and the BIOS control screen was very user friendly. For a budget board, it's nice to have a BIOS with a well built GUI. Secure Boot 2.0 controls made it easy to get Windows 11 installed and running without a hitch. As most new boards go, drivers weren't much of a necessity to get all of your features and motherboard components working properly. If I end up with another budget AMD build to do in the future, I'll stick with this ASUS TUF board. ... show more

  • Great for the price and easy to set up
Style: mATX Size: TUF GAMING A520M-PLUS WIFI
I have a media center PC that I use to run everything computer related for media to my TV and projector. The one I was using couldn't upgrade to windows 11 due to the age, it was over 6 years old, an Asus ROG Strix board and an old AMD Ryzen. Worked great all those years, never an issue, but I figured it was time to replace it. I don't game on this - I have a new 2024 laptop with a 4090 in it for gaming. This is strictly for watching video files and 4K movies. So I didn't need to spend a lot of money. I found this system board, and since I had such a positive experience with the board I'm replacing as well as my Asus gaming laptop (and an old Asus ROG I had for my first Oculus back around 2016 or so) I figured I would stick with Asus. Got overnight shipping, a new Ryzen 7 5700x, and new memory. Pulled the old stuff out, put the new stuff in, and had no issues whatsoever. It went amazingly well. Everything booted up fine, all I had to change was the memory speed since it defaulted to a slower speed, and to power back on after a power loss. So far it's been rock solid, no issues whatsoever. I love Armoury Crate for the driver updates, since I didn't even do a clean install for this, I simply booted off the same drive that was running with the 6 year old ROG Strix and let it find drivers, then Armoury Crate was able to give me the chipset updates and such. Flawless install, everything well labeled for the pins on the board, plenty of drive options. And all of this for under a hundred bucks. I am absolutely THRILLED with this board. ... show more

  • A great entry level gaming motherboard
Style: mATX Size: TUF GAMING A520M-PLUS WIFI
Got this motherboard for a new build. I really like the features and interfaces of this motherboard. I really like that you can easily flash the BIOS from an external USB, while the computer is off. Was able to do this even before I added the OS. Just follow the easy instructions, plug thumb drive in appropriate USB port (there is 1 port designated for this), push the Flash Button for 3 seconds - and it does it's thing. It had all the interfaces I needed for my new case to plug into, and am running 3-SSD's and the onboard M.2 SSD. Added an AMD Rizen 5 5000 series with graphics to board. When I finished build, and turned on, everything worked great. Runs Windows 11 OS with no issues, you just have to be sure you go in to BIOS and activate the TPM "firmware" option in the BIOS. This is required for Windows 11 installs. I can tell you that after doing this, Windows 11 installed without issue. Very happy with this motherboard, and would recommend to others. ... show more

  • So far excellent motherboard.
Style: mATX Size: TUF GAMING A520M-PLUS WIFI
We were having issues getting this thing to startup. It would turn on but just lights but no fan or CPU fan will turn on. Issue we found was dirty CPU pins. We cleaned the processor pins they had dirt under it. We used a soft toothbrush and 91% alcohol solution. Do not brush hard. After the cleaning we put back in the process and it booted up fine. So far it has been working great. ... show more

My first gaming pc build. It went right into a gamdias aurus mid sized pc case. All other components are plug and play. Lots of usb plug in, lots of lighting and accessory plug ins. I went with a ryzen 5 and they are getting along fine. One thing is if you planning on just running Minecraft, get one with an internal graphic card. This unit will require a graphics card in order to see anything. So far its quick, smooth, looks great, came with led, and internet capability in case you don’t have an Ethernet cable yet. ... show more
