These are excellent motherboards, my 3rd one in 10 or so years. The only issue that I have is with this motherboard and there are 2.1) The user's manual is in Chinese. WHY? I live in the USA and I bought this in the USA but the manual is in Chinese.2) The included DVD, why a DVD I don't understand, but the DVD errors out on installing the drivers. I even tried my internal ASUS DVD burner and an external USB HP DVD drive and they both fail reading from the included DVD.ASUS provides and excellent in gaming motherboards in general except this time they fumbled a bit. Will this atop me from buying ASUS products in the future? NOA bit disconcerting is that upon registering on the ASUS website, this shows up as a Warranty Expired, why is that if I purchased this as brand new?

this is my third time to buy this motherboard because im always doing water cooling and i make a mistake and always burn them out all my fault no more water cooling. I bought another one why because its my favorite motherboard it does everything i need for a advance gaming compute also its quality and the RGB is awesome. I have 11 RGB fans and led lights on this thing and it does it all. For the money you're not going to find a better one with out paying a grand so i love it .

I don't game, nor do i do much video/photo editing anymore, but I got this because of all the prior Asus boards I've used. And wanted to make sure I wouldn't have to upgrade again for a long time (this replaces a 6 yr-old board that started to act up. Plenty of options in bios for overclocking, etc. 2 NVME m.2 sockets with optional heatsinks included. layout is good, manual is also good. Had not problems dropping this into the existing chassis, mounting a new CPU, monster heatsink, 32GB ram, etc. Since we're not gaming, I just went with the built VGA capability and everything is great.

No issues, been absolutely perfect from day 1. Only thing I'd warn about is no Bluetooth wnd no wifi on this model. For me, i went with it over the z390-e which has bt and wifi because i dont use wifi and both are easily added with a cheap pcie card. For $30 i got a pcie 1.7gbps bt5 adapter and this pcie card will give you far better wifi and bt performance than whats built into motherboard. If you wanna mount your gpu vertically and dont wanna buy a pcie card then spend the extra $40 and get a wifi/bt model
