An ideal product for any type of consumer.

Taking into account bonuses and discounts, it was the best price-quality offer on the Z690 chipset. Pleasant appearance, thick board textolite.

Pros
  • All necessary interfaces are present, convenient boltless m2 ssd mount, good cooling in the first m2 slot, flexible bios settings, good built-in sound
Cons
  • Not the fastest bios loading until the system starts. I would like the radiators to be in black or dark gray.

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

I bought it before the new year for 17,000. I collected it for a month and a half, the flight was normal. I took under i5-12500. Since I was ating the computer, I had to deal with the BIOS a little (it was more familiar on the old BIOS), but there was no tambourine. At the moment, the price tag on her horse.

Pros
  • Good motherboard with good cooling. There are radiators for 3 ssd. ddr5 memory
Cons
  • Price.

The most balanced product in terms of price-performance. There is an alternative bios for overclocking. A white back plate will look better in a white case. The pre-boot hardware test diodes help determine what the problem is. Satisfied with the result.

Pros
  • Possibility of installation of cooling from LGA1200. Good food 16+1. The ability to power the monitor from usb-c a sufficient number of connectors for fans. Beautiful
Cons
  • No

Different pros: With a relatively budget price segment, it has a lot of overclocking opportunities. No problem with vrm cooling. Convenient mount for ssd 2280 Has cons: There is very little space between the PCIe latch and the m2 ssd cooling heatsink. Very hard to snap off if the computer is already assembled

handed over gigabyte z690 ud. There were sound pickups from the video card. There are no such problems here. But it is worth installing audio drivers from the official site, as there were clicks in the sounds. In general, I am very pleased with the motherboard. All the minuses are not significant, as well as support for asus in 2022 is still working, and they will help you figure it out. I advise you to take.

Pros
  • -design -quality -cooling
Cons
  • sound out of the box may not be perfect the backlight of the RAM was poorly synchronized in the proprietary software, it turned out a little twitchy when the colors change Connecting hard drives can only be done after removing the video card.

Lousy product, low quality.

Brought the mother under the XCOM-SHOP warranty in the service, they examined her meticulously and issued this . That they say I tore out the slot from the usb 3.0 port and beat the motherboard on the sides and because of this it may not be accepted in the "ASUS service". Since my work, as it were, depends on the health of the motherboard, there is no benefit for me to do this. Everything would be fine, only the incorrect wording was indicated in the document, namely "The slot is torn out…

Pros
  • A handy utility from Asus can tie the fan speed to the temperature of the processor or video card.
Cons
  • The mother died while rendering in Blender at standard settings, without overclocking. I used it for half a year, everything is fine in games until I decided to RENDER a heavy scene. Keep in mind if you want to buy a motherboard for work, I suspect that the motherboard has power problems, or overheating on the pci-e bus during its heavy load.

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

I took it under 12600KF and DDR5 FURY 5600, after assembly I tried to overclock the memory, but the computer was buggy. I ated the BIOS from a flash drive to the latest version and with a couple of clicks I overclocked the memory to 6000 and the percentage to 4.9, the flight is stable. I do not understand the negative reviews, tk. it is enough to install the motherboard normally once, configure it and you can forget about it for years. The price is norms, the manufacturer is norms, there are…

Pros
  • - for the Z690 is quite a reasonable price in the current realities - a bunch of connectors, heatsinks for M2 with thermal pads - normal BIOS with wide functionality, the ability to a USB flash drive
Cons
  • - oddly enough, but the panel with connectors crawls out around the corner of the card and because of this, the complete 140mm fan of the case did not fit into the exhaust, I had to saw off the mounting corner of the fan. - 1 ARGB connector at the top, it would be nice to have 2 pieces at the top and bottom, so as not to bother with hubs.

A good product, I advise you to try it.

Always tried to buy m / p ASUS TUF Gaming series. I consider them the "golden mean" in terms of price / quality / capabilities. But with a shortage in the component market, I faced a choice: either the relatively inexpensive PRIME or the overpriced ROG STRIX. I read a review on PRIME, the component base is of high quality, the layout is convenient, there are standard heatsinks for the M2 SSD, there are no particular shortcomings, so I chose it. Already after the purchase, I learned from the…

Pros
  • + quality + design + sound + branded software Armory Crate + price
Cons
  • - UEFI BIOS settings - lack of connector for external USB 3.0 connectors

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

Different pros: Excellent motherboard for non-demanding users who prefer moderate overclocking Has cons: Every time you turn it on, it spins all the fans to the maximum, I understand. that diagnostics, but I have not seen this with other manufacturers

Medium quality, especially for that kind of money.

Pros: The motherboard is of high quality, it would ideally fit into my PC, but with an obvious jamb of the manufacturer or seller, no one wanted to flash the mother for a new BIOS. Has some cons: It did not start on the 13th generation, there is no flash bios, I had to return the goods.
