ASUS Prime Z590-A LGA 1200 (Intel 11th/10th Gen) ATX Motherboard (14+2 DrMOS Power Stages, 3 x M.2, Intel 2.5Gb LAN, USB 3.2 Front Panel Type-C, Thunderbolt 4 Support, Aura Sync RGB Lighting)

Pros: Solid ASUS MB with 5 fan slots and a dedicated Water Pump output. Easy to follow build instructions and good layout for clean case with limited wires visible. ASUS has the best custom BIOS setups, we noticed our old water pump was not running on start. We are paried with a Gen 10 CPU and ready for Gen 11 when prices get real.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Buy it if it fits your needs

Pros: Lots of interfaces so you can mix and match a lot of I/O.I bought this one because it supports the 10th gen and 11th gen (which unlocks PCIe 4.0 and a dedicated NVMe using 4 PCIe 4.0 lanes). I bought a 10th gen Intel as a placeholder until the new ones came out.The manual is pretty clear on where connectors are so there aren't many surprises. Most "1st timers" shouldn't have much problem getting this installed and going.

Cons: Lacks integrated WiFI, but this is known based on the specs.The stock release comes with a BIOS that manifests many bugs (in Windows). You need at least the 0605 BIOS update to gain stability. For instance, copying from one USB 3.0 backup drive to another one 'crashes' after 20GB. It didn't matter which 20GB of content it was. And to make things worse both USB devices were unrecognizable by Windows after that. It required a full reboot to clear out whatever EM signal foo was clogging up the I/O. Literally the only change I made to my system was tossing 0605 on a USB stick and booting into the bios and updating it. Windows hasn't dropped a transfer between USBs yet. (yay)

Overall Review: I like it. I got this as an interim (and last - hopefully) Intel-based platform. I'm more of an AMD kind of guy and just wanted a farewell build for Intel that I can point to in 20 years and go 'yep that was a good lil fella". Not expecting anything special, but I got special anyway. Again, with the 11th gen you can unlock PCIe 4.0 which *might* make this useful even though later this year the 12th gen enabled PCIe 5.0 support...

Overall Review: @ 15 days of use I would recommend this product to others I would purchase this product again

Pros: Works great with 11th gen Intel processors. Plenty of PCIe 4.0 slots. Easy to install drivers. AI overclocking is a cool feature to have.

Cons: None yet

Overall Review: I would definitely recommend this MB for builders using 11th gen Intel proffers l processors.

Overall Review: Given todays shortages this was a good middle of the road Board. All around use.

Pros: I was very pleased with my building experience with this motherboard from everything to it’s high quality build, RGB, and small details that make building much easier than most other motherboards.

Overall Review: I love this motherboard and would recommend to all builders especially first timers since it was really easy

Overall Review: Great board no issues.
