Buena Placa in Computers and accessories

Install 5 fans (dos de entrada, los de arriba y el de atras) ademas de los 2 del cooling noctua de la cpu. Total 7 Installs on a Core i7 10700k automatically to 4.8GHz and down to 3.2GHz or 3.6GHz. Manually use 3200MHz memory in BIOS. de video voy tirando with motherboard que va 2g de memory de videoTodo bien hasta ahora, buscare como hacer que no haga esos saltos tan bruscos la cpu.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • I will write later

? Motherboards: Motherboards

Rog 570 or 470 I think it's more budget friendly with available wired connections, it's not necessary but it would be a nice addition but its basic specs are worth the normal angle to keep the cost down .

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Weak set

Great motherboard good for motherboards

Good motherboard working with i5 10th gen, 16GB RAM, 612GB SDD. My son uses it for homework and online games. Use CPU's internal video while there is no external MB.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Annoying

Great Micro ATX motherboard with easy to use BIOS

I used this to build my server. I appreciate how easy it is to change fan profiles, tweak memory, and tweak CPU clocks (in my case, I disabled turbo mode on my i5-10600K and it was as easy as flipping a switch). Installation was easy and my only complaints were the boring I/O screen and lack of an icon for your PC case. Every other motherboard comes with one, so why not this one?

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • No paint required

Good Motherboard: Computer Components

I just upgraded my computer and wanted to install a modern processor on a budget. It fits pretty well. It's a micro-ATX with a lot of features. This will not allow you to overclock. So if you want to do this, there will be an additional fee. I have a Micro-ATX case and it fits with no problems. The only small thing to note is that it has two NVMe slots, and if you're using a 10th gen CPU (like me), the NVMe slot closest to the CPU is disabled. This *IS* is documented in the instructions, but…

Pros
  • So far so good
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

The ethernet port was dead on arrival

Thought the ethernet was dead, it ended up being my DHCP settings. Set a static IP by first connecting to another device on the same ethernet port and fix the problem by changing the IPv4 settings for ethernet on the PC.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Great price, good VRMs

Good for 11400 and 11700. The motherboard automatically turns on MCE and allows the processors to use all the power they need to run 4.2 on all cores / 4.4 on a single core for the 11400 that I installed to upgrade from the 9100f. The stock cooler can't handle it, so I switched to a 280mm AIO, which keeps it under 60 even under the heaviest loads. The CPU consumes about 110W at full tilt while running CB23 and 56c in a 5 minute CB23 cycle. Works great with the B-Die 3200 XMP profile. Brett…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Great Micro-ATX motherboard with user-friendly BIOS

I have this to build my server. I appreciate how easy it is to change fan profiles, tweak memory, and tweak CPU clocks (in my case, I disabled turbo mode on my i5-10600K and it was as easy as flipping a switch). Installation was easy and my only complaints were the boring I/O screen and lack of an icon for your PC case. Every other motherboard comes with one, so why not this one?

Pros
  • Intel LGA 1200 socket: designed to unleash the ultimate performance of 11th Gen Intel Core processors
Cons
  • Long time

Great price, good VRMs

Good for use with 11400 and 11700. B560M does not overclock, so don't waste your money on K- Class 11th generation. The motherboard automatically turns on MCE and allows the processors to use all the power they need to fully run 4.2 on all cores / 4.4 on a single core for the 11400 I installed to upgrade from the 9100f. The stock cooler can't handle it, so I switched to a 280mm AIO, which keeps it under 60 even under the heaviest loads. The CPU consumes about 110W at full tilt while running…

Pros
  • Advanced power solution: 8 power stages, alloy chokes and long life capacitors for stable power supply
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Affordable option for 10th and 11th Gen Intel processors

I used this MB as the core of a spring 2021 budget gaming build. This MB supports 11th Gen Comet Lake and Rocket Lake processors. It has a good balance of features for the price, including *two M.2 slots, four storage slots, pretty solid VRM and cooling, and your usual SATA support ports. The only thing that might stand in the way of a five star rating is the poor USB 3 support. Only one USB 3 port on the back (although there are headers for internal/front USB 3 ports). It has an integrated…

Pros
  • Improved memory performance: ASUS OptiMem's patented tracing scheme allows memory kits to operate at higher frequencies at lower voltages to maximize system performance. Memory overclocking support up to 5000MHz
Cons
  • Socket required
