I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

It copes well with r9 3900 at 4.1 on all cores at 1.81V, provided that the upper case fan blows heat from the power supply radiator.
Just pissed off the search for a working driver for sound! NOTHING works in the standard driver from the asus website!
As a result, I found the AAF DCH Optimus Sound option, which solved most of the problems.
The front panel works as a separate device when configured from the screen.

Pros

Convenient form factor. There is almost no backlight. Two M2 ports.

Cons

The monstrous ALC1200 codec. It's a strange decision that the radiator is only on the second port of M2, which does not work from the processor, although I did not notice a difference in speed between the ports.
