ASUS TUF GAMER outperforms MSI MPG X570 GAMING PLUS

I switched to the ASUS TUF series after looking at tests and reviews. I wanted onboard WIFI and INTEL NIC. After completing my upgrade from MSI MPG X570 GAMING PLUS, I noticed faster boot up to Windows desktop speed, better USER BENCHMARK test and internet is slightly faster! I've synced CPU and RAM with MSI settings and so far I'M IMPRESSED! No MSI fan anymore. The INTEL network card on this board is the key for every gamer! No "TURBO LAN" loaded, just pure NIC performance! Intel is the KING of gaming network cards! I haven't tested WiFi for gaming yet. And the last. The BIOS is a little tricky to navigate and distinguish what's what in some menus. Just take some time to look around and you will understand (YouTube videos helped me).

Pros

Best gaming connectivity: HDMI 2.1 output (4K@60HZ) and DisplayPort 1.2 support, two M.2 slots (NVMe SSD) – PCIe 4.0 x4 connection, front USB 3.2 Gen 2 connector type - C, USB 3.2 Gen 2, Type-C and Type-A ports
