However, it could probably be the best mATX.

It's very functional, has a good BIOS and is easy to set up. The Flashback feature is great for updating the BIOS or downgrading when the built-in utility doesn't allow it. Plenty of USB ports on the back; Although it doesn't have an internal Type-C connector, neither does it in my case, so no loss. It has a good and very reliable VRM that a CPU with many cores should easily handle even for overclocking. But the experience can be frustrating as the board lacks a temperature measurement on theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • High-performance gaming network: 2.5Gb LAN with ASUS LANGuard
Cons
  • So-so

First time buyer of Asus MoBo and not disappointed

Great quality and super usability of the Assembly. I overclocked my RAM to 3600MHz with my Ryzen 5 with DOCP enabled in the bios. The bios is ready to use out of the box, but very easy to update when the time comes. The only thing I'm a bit disappointed with is that my mouse isn't recognized in the click bios and the RAM doesn't go above 3000MHz in 1 and 3 RAM slots for some reason. I switched to 2 and 4, redid the DOCP profile in the BIOS and am happy at 3600MHz now. This is a very promisingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Optimized thermal solution: fanless VRM and chipset heatsink, multiple hybrid fan headers and fan speed control via Fan Xpert 4 or UEFI Q-Fan Control Utility
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

doa Motherboards: Computer Components

I bought this to assemble a spare computer for a sibling for Christmas, it arrived quickly, no damage in transit and well packaged unlike most items that come from Amazon -warehouses, however the board was dead on arrival, the CPU light stays on and it doesn't indicate that the CPU is not getting power, unfortunately due to my work at the post office when I had time to put the system together, the Problem to understand and diagnose the specific problem, the Amazon return window has closed andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Industry-leading AI-powered gaming audio and noise-cancelling microphone technology: High-quality audio from the SupremeFX S1220A codec with DTS Sound Unbound and Sonic Studio III immerses you deeper in the action. Clear communication with ASUS AI noise canceling microphone technology
Cons
  • Reliability
