Good Solid Board
Everything you need for your gaming rig. Why spend more for features most people will never use. Easy to setup bios with flashback protection. Great software support through Armoury Crate with Aura Sync for all your lighting effects.

Issues
This motherboard doesn't except OC'd DDR5 Ram. It crashes if XMP or XPO is enable in Bios. Crashes system if external HDD is plugged in. Very disappointed with this motherboard. But since it was part of a prebuilt and other know issues with this motherboard my hands are tied.

Not working
Not sure as to why this motherboard is giving me issues with my ram and issues with installing drivers. Not sure if I want to continue dealing with this much longer. Won't be getting an Asus anytime soon.

Nice feature set for little $$$
Nice feature set for an inexpensive board. Love the 8 USB ports and a PCIe 5.0 slot for an SSD. Only complaint is that two of the PCIe slots get blocked by my 4070 Ti card. But that is a function of the size of the board.

Well it is a mother board...
So, i didn't buy this by choice, it is in my high end pre-built gaming pc. The tuning program, Armoury crate is a terrible experience. The program will force restart the pc if you go through the operation of lighting and fan speed, half the time. I am afraid to use anymore tuning options as it may be worse. Everything has been updated and checked again. Maybe this could...

Nice motherboard.
My only complaint is that it does not have much room for upgrade.

Excellent Mainboard
Excellent board, micro ATX but with pretty much all the functionality and expandability of a standard ATX board, ideal for a more compact build. With a sophisticated feature set that includes everything from RGB headers to wi-fi, this is a versatile board that could fit a lot of different builds, my preference is gaming and it's a great board for that purpose.
