ASUS X570 Plus Motherboard paired with VG248QG Monitor – A Dynamic Duo for High Performance Gaming and Productivity Review

I bought this because I've used Asus motherboards before and really liked them. This board shines in the same way as my previous boards, but falls short in a few other respects. The board is pretty easy to install. Some of the screw holes toward the I/O ports were difficult to reach with a screwdriver. Certainly not impossible, but you may have to play with it a bit to get the screws to seat properly. In fact, the biggest issue I had was the location of the RAM. I have a 212 Evo CPU cooler and…

Buy this board! Words cannot express how efficient and well designed this board is. I've been using an Asus Prime x570 Pro for the past few months and have had so many issues with USB ports constantly disconnecting and Windows randomly freezing in splash mode. I thought it was just Drivers or maybe my memory. But after weeks of troubleshooting to no avail, I finally looked through the reviews of this mobo and found that other people are having the exact same problems. I bought this board…

I had a Gigabyte Aorus Pro x570 WiFi card that died after 4 months of warranty. Bought this board to replace this one. I was sure that changing the motherboard would cause problems on first boot, but oddly enough that didn't happen. I changed the motherboard, turned on the computer and. IT SIMPLY WORKS! However, I carried out the usual necessary updates a day or two later via the Asus software (LAN driver, etc.). So far I'm very happy with this motherboard. Note that if you have fans on the top

I saw this at Revain and decided to give it a try and see if I could save a few bucks. Lesson learned: Don't buy high-end electronics in the scratches and dents section. Yes, there is a chance that everything will work out, but there is an inconvenience of getting an error. That happened to me. BIG ASUS fan. So I tried the scratch and dent department. Although Revain claims they test the product to make sure it works, I highly doubt it. Assembled a computer, started it up and it had a DRAM…

I built a computer with this motherboard last month and this week I had to build another of the same kind. All had identical components, mostly from Revain, and the stand used a Ryzen 5 (5000G) processor. The first assembly went well, the machine started up for the first time. The second had a strange problem, the motherboard shows a DRAM error indicating a memory or in rare cases a processor failure. The second board, named by both Asus and AMD, had an older BIOS version that was incompatible…

I didn't take any photos of the pre installed board but I inspected the board upon arrival and it had marking marks and it looked like dried mortar on the board. These markings were an issue as it was a 'new' board but seems to be working for now. Honestly. it looks a bit dirtier than the 3 year old mobo it replaced. I will update my review if I have any short term issues/other issues with the product but so far it seems good.

Got it in February along with Ryzen 7 3800X and G.Skill Aegis Model F4-3200C16D-32GIS 32GB DDR4 Kit. The motherboard recognized the memory profile without user intervention, setting my preferred BIOS settings was quick and easy, and the system has been running fine for 5 months. However, on-board radios are disappointing and should not be relied on. WiFi radio range is poor and Bluetooth radio is basically useless as its range is less than 1 meter and it cannot go through 2 cm of plastic. If I…

I paired this motherboard with a 12-core Ryzen 3900 XT because I needed a lot of cores for Unreal lighting calculations in a game I'm developing and I have it with 2x Corsair Force Series MP600 1TB NVMe drives with PCIe interface 4.0 coupled. x4 and are designed for speeds of up to 4950 Mbit/s. The RAM is a Corsair CMK32GX4M4A2666C16 Vengeance LPX 32GB and the video is an RTX 2060. The CPU cooler is an ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 240. If you build a system with this motherboard, there is one thing

I had no problems with this board. Installation went well, it has a ton of ports so you really can choose the cable routes that work best for your case, and the pre-installed Wraith Prism cooler mount (included with my Ryzen 3700) is so easy that it made me drives crazy. on other coolers because they do something not so obvious. A few people have reported problems with Wi-Fi drivers when setting up Windows - I've had no problems in that department. The only problem I had was my own. This board…

There are two problems to get this board working. Once you're done with them, it will be a good payout. 1 - Before booting the machine for the first time, you need to install your graphics card in the bottom X16 slot. When you plug it into the top X16 slot, POST will stop and the white LED for VGA will light up. Press F2 at boot to enter settings. After setting, press F7 to enter advanced mode. Select Advanced > Integrated device configuration. On PCIEX16_1, set the mode to Gen 3 or whatever

Tolerance was great. I didn't need to install a BIOS update and had no trouble installing Windows on the computer. The slots are a bit tight; Especially in the top PCIe slot you have to make an awkward effort when installing the RAM and graphics card. I built with 1660 Super (gaming requirements were not high), 3900x and 16GB Ripjaws 3600 CL16. I haven't had any problems with RAM speed, everything claims to be running at 3600 after I set it up. If you see both green and white lights or only…

For an AM4 board (which should be obsolete with the new AM5 later this year) this is a great board that lives up to its name. I don't recommend being very rough on it, but you should know that it's durable enough to handle most hiccups. I miss the Aorus' built-in BIOS updater, but that's just a minor issue on a motherboard that's usually very good. Ryzen 5 or higher with at least 32 GB RAM recommended. If you have the budget, go for 128GB if you can, otherwise 32GB is fine.

I was a little worried after receiving the box. He wasn't promoting the AMD 5000 series, but also hinted at the information on the website that a BIOS flash might be required. This model does not support flashing the BIOS with a non-CPU AMD system. He did, however, promote it at the top of the Revain page. So I was nervous when assembling it. I can confirm that the BIOS version included here supports it perfectly. I installed an AMD 5800z with no problems. Super charged. The temperature in the…

I upgraded three of my computers last winter and this was the first motherboard I bought. It's been working great since day one, so nothing to complain about. However, I later found a PRO version of this motherboard and bought 2 for other builds. It has 3 key features for just a few dollars more. 1) This MB has 1 gigabyte Ethernet. Pro version 2.5Gig Ethernet.2) This MB has WiFi A/C. Pro version of Wi-Fi 6 (literally 5x faster when paired with a Wi-Fi 6 router). I usually get 500+ MB/s…

I liked the board. It seemed great. It took just over 2 hours to complete the build, not counting the time it took to dismantle the old board. I thought I did my best to make sure I have a board that can handle the Ryzen 5950. Long story short since I didn't have an option to flash the BIOS I had to return the board. If for some reason your board is stuck on the orange DRAM indicator, no you haven't broken anything, you just need to flash the BIOS. Since the TUF line has a bios flash option for

I love ASUS products and this board is no exception. The board itself is beautiful and sleek, and has most of the latest features on the market, allowing it to support the fastest CPUs and GPUs available to most consumers. The UEFI interface is nice and simple, with just a few things hidden in an obscure category. My only concern is that if the POST LEDs light up to indicate a problem until you shut down the system, they are so bright that you can't see the problem. Even then, you better make…

At first I was happy to get this board; Arrived without fuss but came with a defect. Tried turning it on and nothing so got another power supply to confirm and nothing so got a replacement which was great until the windows 11 board was actually done. Okay, I'll just download 10 and update myself? No, because after the BIOS update it got into a boot loop. Suffice to say I'm ordering help here because it's getting out of hand... that doesn't mean the problem is with Revain, just an overview of my

I bought this board and was concerned about the difference in the connectors my power supply and the power supply on the mbrd have. It wasn't until I downloaded a copy of Asus' instructions that I realized that it doesn't matter and that Asus says either a 4-pin or 8-pin connector would work. I am using a 4 pin power connector. and it works fine. I am attaching a screenshot of the guide showing both are acceptable. The board runs impressively fast when you boot it up with the right processor…

It was very stable. My initial configuration had some RGB memory and a Ryzen 5 2600. The RGB memory wasn't working well so I checked their HCL (Hardware Compatibility List) on the ASUS website. Sorry, your QVL (Qualified Vendor List). and settled on the memory of the Corsair LPX 3600. Revane understood. I was also one of the first to promote Corsair on the internet. And I'm one of the first to say that ASUS is one of the best manufacturers. before Google or Revain even existed. So it goes well…

Had to remove the battery to reset the BIOS, it's really easy to use the overclocking features, but once blocked it won't reset until the battery is removed. Didn't reset to defaults on crash so that was the end of my overclocking fun! Use it as a reference with Ryzen 9 5900x @ 4.8GHz and 3600MHz memory when locked.
