Quite a powerful MoBo with lots of options to upgrade. 4 fan headers was quite nice as well (exc CPU headers). Mine came with bios 0401 which is somewhat older bios so you may want to upgrade. Furthermore, it was lacking the driver for Wi-Fi so you cannot connect to the internet until you set up everything and copy the file from another system. Also, you need DDR5!
Great board with lots to offer. Currently hindered by a Bios that doesn't want to activate XMP on my DDR5 6000 Trident Z5 unless you use a workaround...which isn't what you want to be doing with a high end board. I'm sure Asus will sort this shortly and it'll be everything I expected. Still feels worth the money.
There are lots of features on this board, the strix-e may be best for most high-end gamers, but I purchased this so I can use a M.2 Gen5 without throttling the GPU into Gen 4 (4090).
This thing is a beauty and well optioned with USB, SATA and M.2. It is such a handsome and well performing motherboard in every way. Best to read the reviews as it's not the cheapest but in my opinion, well worth every cent.
Paired with a 13900ks and 32GB Corsair DDR5 Vengeance PC5-57600, the speeds are epic and have had no issues at all.
