Awesome Board
All the bells and whistles you could expect at this price point. Installation was easy. The bios is easy to navigate. The M2 slot is pretty awesome. All the RGB hookups you’ll need. Supports 192GB ram, I got 96 right now but soon I’ll fill it up. Slapped on a Ryzen 9 7950x3d and a gigabyte rtx4090. This machine puts out! I’ll change this review if anything goes bad..

Absolute garbage
This will likely be the last Asus product I ever buy. I have never had so many issues with a motherboard. The first one had to go through RMA because it was failing to detect my GPU correctly. The white QLED would stay on all of the time. Occasionally, it would fail to boot, and I could rarely get into the bio because it didn’t register inputs in time. The RMA process was terrible, having to deal with them for hours just to get a RMA number, then wait weeks for the replacement board.I figured the replacement board would solve my problems, but guess what? It didn’t fix any of those issues, and now I have an even worse issue with the network adapter just randomly failing to detect a wired connection.This board has been awful. I wish I had saved $100 and gone with a different brand. I will not shop with Asus ever again.Been dealing with ASUS “tech support” for nearly two weeks now on the issue of the network adapter. They promised a phone call, but never called me. The problem has steadily gotten worse and now the computer won’t even boot. Been building computers for 15 years, and I’ve never run into this. Can’t get into the bios to see what is going on. ASUS refuses to do anything. I just want my money back so I can go with a different company.

Great X670E Board With Balanced I/O & Featureset
I purchased this from the Amazon Warehouse in “Used-Like New” condition. As you can see from the photos, this board was practically pristine! And for $288! I have the X670E-E variant, which also is an open-box pristine unit but from Micro Center a year ago for $375. These boards are similar, with the STRIX E model having beefier heatsinks for 3x Gen 5.0 x4 M.2s and more USB 3.2 ports, with the trade-off being the third M.2 splitting lanes with your x16_1 & x16_2 slots since they’re sharing lanes from the CPU and not the chipset. The STRIX A gives you 2x Gen 5 and 2x Gen 4 (from the chipset), which means you won’t split lanes from your GPU with any M.2. You also have a X1 slot between your two x16s instead of another x16 slot in x8 or x4 mode. This is great for me since I’d need to get a splitter and bifurcate the x16 slot to split lanes, which I don’t plan on doing.Outside of some USB 2s in the rear and the lack of a POST code LED, this board as about every bit as capable as the STRIX E for less money. To be fair, this is pretty much an X670E-F with white/silver heatsinks instead. I’d also like to add that I have 2 kits of 32GB (2x16GB) G.Skill Flare X5 DDR5-6000 CL36-36-36-96 memory installed for a total of 64GB, with apparently EXPO II working exactly as intended (6000MHz or 6000MT/s), which has surprised me, but I’ll update if I find any issues.All-in-all, if you can get this board at a good discount, go for it. I have it in my white Sliger Cerberus X with a white Silver Soul 135, which looks great. Really got the aesthetic I was going for.

No me ha dado ningún problema todo excelente.

Es mi primera tarjeta madre que compro y me sentía nervioso por como fuera a llegar, pero la caja llegó en muy buen estado sin golpes, y en especial los pines para el procesador, que son muy delicados, a la hora de enviar, también llegó con todo su contenido de stickers, guía , antena, etc. Me encanta los detalles que Asus le pone a sus productos, y ya por último me queda probarla y ver qué en realidad funcióne correctamente, por el momento le doy 5 estrellas, cuando por fin pueda probarla, actualizaré mi reseña.
