Great for performance and overclocking builds. - Next-Gen Connectivity Offers Wi-Fi 7, 5GbE LAN, PCIe 5.0 (GPU), USB 4 Type-C, and 3× M.2 slots with effective heatsinks. Solid foundation for future-proofing. - Professional & Clean Design No RGB, subtle silver/gray heatsinksideal for workstations or minimalistic builds. - User-Friendly BIOS and Tools Features MSIs Click BIOS X, EZ Overclocking, AI-powered networking tools, and a simplified build process.

Works unlike the last terrible Gigabyte motherboard I bought here.

Plenty of room for all your watercooling needs. Toolless panels. A ton of flexibility with fan sizes. It'll fit three 360mm radiators with fans easily. No dividers on the pcie slots makes for easy vertical mounting.

Exceptional I/O, aesthetically pleasing design, outstanding overclocking capability.

Best layout among competing motherboards. A 2-slot width GPU still allows use of x1 PCIe in addition to the other x16. This allowed mounting a 10Gbps network card on the x1 (albeit max at 7Gbps) and a U.2 NVMe on the other x16 slot. The M.2 slots are all exposed. That means, mounting U.2 NVMe's on the M.2 slots is possible. I mounted a U.2 Optane for OS and caching to the hard drives on one of the slots. This setup is not possible with Gigabye, Asus, and MSI micro-ATX boards. These competing motherboards have either 1 or both of their M.2 slots underneath the PCIe cards! The slots have open ended notches that allows longer x16 card to be mounted on the x1 slot, for example. The BIOS features is extensive. Bifurcation is possible on the PCIe. Runs Ryzen 9 7950x with ease. EXPO setting on a GSkill 6000Mhz CL30 is running excellent. Supports ECC memory. Nice. I paired it with an A6000 GPU for a true creative workstation setup.

- Good wifi reception even if you don't plug in the antennas - BIOS UI is pleasant to use and offers good control over fan curves - Good linux compatibility - Relatively cheap for having the latest-gen tech

Rear connections makes for a great looking build, easy to install

+ Great features and priced lower than competitors + Great motherboard design and aesthetics + Customizable onboard RGB lights + PCIe 5.0 x16 for GPU fps boost + AMD Expo ran with no issues + Tons of BIOS OC options + Generous of USB ports + Troubleshooting LEDs

Hidden back connectors, black brushed aluminum, minimal ambient light

This is pretty much as good as it gets. Yes, there are teething issues with WRX90 because it's such a new platform, but once you get past those, the board has been rock solid.

After 18 years of great service, my old ASUS 4 core AMD CPU motherboard died in my old custom HTPC after being unable to support some of its USB ports, and I decided it was time to build at least one new computer. This ROG STRIX B650-A looked to be a good deal and had everything I expected for a better than average build. After such a long time there was a learning curve, but I had modified Win 11 Pro some years back to run on my four pre UEFI BIOS computers - so I'm still somewhat capable even at 73. I worked slowly and methodically installing the board in a new Silverstone GD10B shelf case with a Seasonic FOCUS GX750 PSU, with an AMD Ryzen 5 8600G series processor and some new Corsair DDR5 PC6400 (2x16GB Vengeance RGB sticks - that weren't in the ASUS QVC listing). I reused my old Samsung 256 GB SSD and a Western Digital Purple 1 TB storage drive. I then download and burned a Win 11 Pro 23H2 ISO and installed the latest ASUS BIOS to a 32GB USB memory stick. This case is tight, but cable management worked well, and I had no problem mounting my ASUS BlueRay Dual Layer SATA burner drive, the 2.5 SATA SSD and the 3.5 SATA hard drive. First power up was uneventful as I watched the Aura lighting come on with the diagnostic lights showing correct operation. My SSD still had my modified pre UEFI WIN 11 Pro loaded and BIOS would not show a bootable drive but did show the drives as storage. I loaded the WIN 11 Pro ISO in my disc drive and Win 11 Pro loaded in 17 minutes. WiFi and Ethernet came Online and the computer ran so quiet I found myself looking at it repeatedly just to see if it was still on despite my HDMI monitor's screen. I then inserted the memory stick into the BIOS USB with the new .CAP BIOS with the computer turned off. I held the button in for three seconds for three flashes on the BIOS FlashBack and it ran for 4 minutes to completion. I then loaded all the ASUS utilities and used them to update some of the drivers with zero issues. I then hit activation for WIN 11 Pro and purchased a digital license from Microsoft. After activation, I made sure WIN 11 Pro was fully updated which added even more features. Once this was done, I re-entered the ASUS Armoury Crate utility and used it to further update all ASUS and AMD drivers. This PC runs very cool and extremely quiet using the three included case fans and CPU fan at 900-1000 RPM. 31-35 C. CPU cores and it still hasn't been running long enough to burn in the factory AMD Wraith Stealth cooler to the CPU. The PSU fan is also so quiet I had to look just to see if its fan was on (Seasonic has a back button that will turn it off).

Very easy super fluid makes building fun

Beautiful mobo, everything has been thought of to make building east and beautiful at the same time

AM5 Support with next-gen Ryzen CPUs rock-solid stability so far. PCIe Gen 5 for both GPU and NVMe storage, future-proofing baked in. Robust VRM design that runs cool even under load. Perfect for overclocking or pushing X3D chips. DDR5 support with high-speed kits running flawlessly. Connectivity: USB4, Wi-Fi 7, and plenty of fast rear I/O options. No compromises here. Q-Flash Plus & Clear CMOS buttons a lifesaver for enthusiasts.

All's good so far A+++

Ultra Power Phase with 2 M.2 and 2 LAN. MSi has this OC Engine that boot up the gaming performance up to 20%. come with the ONE click OC jumper make is more smoothly. Love the board! waiting for the 9850X3D launch !
