  • Sent me an open box that was defective.
I am a disabled vet with a spinal injury. It is a big ordeal for me to do an activity like installing a new motherboard and involves alot of pain. So for me this is more than a small deal for me. I got my motherboard and processor and noticed that the cpu was factory sealed but the mobo box was not sealed. "Thats weird" I thought. Opened it up and saw that the anti static bag was also unsealed. Thats really weird as if you have done any builds you know they tend to be sealed with a seal so strong it often breaks the bag. Now I'm worried but think "Nah, amazon wouldn't send me an open box item..." So I spend a several hours installing everything on a grounded anti static mat on a static neutral work station, wearing an anti static wrist band and anti static gloves just for good measure. Hook up my shiney new rig, power it on and.....no display. Lights come on and everything spins up. Ok time to troubleshoot. Walk the dog, check all the little things like connections, monitor ect. Nada. Grab my old card that is known good and install it in my current cards place. Same thing happens on power up. Plug in to the onboard graphics and it boots right up, no issues (aside from it not letting me past bios because my water cooled cpu cooler doesn't hook into the mobo for fan control as its not designed to and theres no way to skip past that error of no cpu fan detected....but thats a whole other thing). So, just to isolate the PCI-E 16x slot I move down to the next one in the line.....and it boots fine. Turns out they shipped an open box item with a bad first slot PCI-E 16x slot (at the very least). Now I'm in the crappy situation of deciding if I want to keep a defective but kinda working product or go through the personal hell of uninstalling it again, packing it up, sending it back, getting a refund, ordering replacement, and installing it all again for a second time. So I spend a few hours testing the system after installing all the drivers. Everything runs fine and I put the computer into sleep mode for the night. Wake up and go to wake it with the mouse, nothing happens. Try the keyboard, nada. Ok, powerbutton....nothing. FINE onboard motherboard power button....can you guess the outcome? Yeah, the onboard LEDs light up when power supply is on but will not power cycle at all now, with nothing changing between last night and the morning. So yeah Im done with this one, putting in for an amazon return. I suggest you stay away from this very suspect seller. ... show more

  • Good value for those with intel blocks
Great looking mobo and good CPU. Great value especially if like me you are wanting to reuse intel CPU blocks. AI overclocking gets up to 4.9 GHz on all cores. Only negative for me is the lack of ARGB headers.

I bought this bundle for my gaming setup, and it turned out to be nice! My only issue is that u was unable to setup my radiator at the top of my case because of clearance.

It’s a nice budget board but not great for over clocking, I do like it for its Asthetics!

  • Intel and Asus a solid investment
I tried the AMD processor and compatible motherboard but could not boot the PC. Lesson learned. Stay with Intel. I have always been fan of Intel’s quality and it did not disappoint. I have always had excellent luck with Asus Motherboards. The Asus board is terrific. Quality construction and clearly marked for easy builds. While my needs are for business desktop computing, the intel and Asus combo is a solid investment. ... show more
