Pros: Overall the motherboard is very good. Comes with basically everything you need aside from a wifi chip. Really like the included thermal pads for the m.2, it also comes with m.2 standoffs and screw. It was a pretty easy install of my ryzen 7 5800x. Didn't need to do any bios flash came ready with ryzen 5000 bios.
Cons: The I/O shield has this metal tab that's supposed to ground the thunderbolt, but it protrudes too much so I cut it off.
Overall Review: I would definitely recommend this MB, it was easy to install and software was already setup for the new cpu. Also it's really good with static. Me and my wife forgot to put on our antistatic straps a couple of times when touching the MB and it's still operating flawlessly lol.
Great MB if you need expansion PCIe2/17/2022 8:53:43 AM
Pros: Another quality product from ASUA
Will use this for streaming from multi camera setup main reason for choosing the pro MB.
Cons: I wish the included documentation was a little more detailed (like for instance saying the 4 pin CPU power cable is only needed if overclocking. (THIS COST ME OVER AN HOUR AND CAUSED ME TO PULL A NEW POWER SUPPLY FROM A RECENT BUILD TO FIND MY NEW 650W SEASONIC POWER SUPPLY HAD NO 4 PIN EATHER!!!)
Overall Review: Great MB lots of expansion.
Just wish documentation was better. (If tou have questions go to google don't waste time looking at documentation)

So far so good8/17/2022 3:17:15 PM
Overall Review: First build in a while, and seemed to have what I needed and at a good price. I think my only gripe would be some of the board labeling for the switches (even with the layout in the booklet and such was just having a little trouble) but overall was pretty quick and easy to get going. My last build had an Asus motherboard as well so figured I would see what they are like still and has been working great thus far. My wife and I had to poke fun at the stickers that came with it though..... :P

Probably the best board I will ever get my hands on.4/28/2022 6:09:14 PM
Pros: Was delivered really quickly, nothing visually wrong with the board, overall I'm as satisfied as I can be without being able to install it, due to waiting on other parts.
Cons: Nothing wrong as far as I can tell without having the rest of the setup.
Overall Review: 4 stars due to not being able to use it but I've never really had any issues with ASUS products before so I'm hopeful.
Pros: Easy to set up and lots of features.
Cons: I haven't found one.
Overall Review: I would highly recommend this excellent AM 4 motherboard to others. It recognized my Ryzen 5 5600g as soon as I turned it on.
