Asus Prime PRIME Z790-P WIFI Gaming Desktop Motherboard - Intel Z790 Chipset - Socket LGA-1700 - ATX - Core, Pentium Gold, Celeron Processor Supported - 128 GB DDR5 SDRAM Maximum RAM - DDR5-7200/PC5-5

This is the 3rd ASUS MB that I have used to build my desktop computers over the last 10 years. It fits just fine into a mid-tower case and is easy to install. You may need a magnifying glass to see a couple of the connection for the on button and other parts that come with the computer case. Other than that, it works just fine. I do have one question about the heat sink for the PCle 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD as it has some foam adhesive tape on. It would seem to me that the heatsink should be in a direct contact with the PCle 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD. It wasn't a problem for me as my PCle 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD came with its own heatsink. If you have an old style keyboard or mouse with the IBM round connector, as opposed to the USB connector, this MB has proper connector so you can still use your old keyboard like I do.

I liked that it came with an updated bios so I could use the latest Intel CPU. It works great, haven't had any issues besides the USB 3.1 port not working properly. Other than that it's a great motherboard.

I have lost count on the number of ASUS motherboards I have purchased through the years. Not once have I ever been disappointed or had buyers remorse. This Z790-P is no exception. I just completed an install for my primary DAW PC for my studio and this board was a perfect fit for the bill. The system booted right up and recognized all of my hardware. Windows 11 installed without a single glitch and I was up and running in no time. The layout of the board is well thought out and fit nicely in my 4U rack enclosure. The installation manual was well written and explained all of the necessary connections making the install very easy. I have had no driver issues and my DAW software and audio applications all reloaded beautifully. I also encountered no issues with the BIOS and found it to be intuitive to navigate and was consistent with other ASUS boards. For reference I used an Intel i9 processor (LGA1700) and 32 GB Corsair DDR5 memory. I am not an over-clocker and I did not purchase this board for gaming. I opted to use the onboard video which will serve my needs quite well. This is another successful ASUS PC build and as long as they keep making quality motherboards I will continue to keep using them exclusively for all of my future PC projects.

I had an Asus Prime Z690-A, which apparently was known to have compatibility issues with intel 13th gen. Even though it said it was compatible and worked fine most of the time, under heavy load the computer would frequently deadlock. No error, no blue screen, no response, just freeze. Luckily, upgrading to the Z790 series seems to have fixed this completely! I'm disappointed in ASUS for the frankly false marketing, as they clearly have no intention of fixing the compatibility issues with older products, but I'm glad to at least no longer have random freezes. I do have to subtract a star because the price, in my opinion, is very unfair.

I bought this refurbished. Took a chance and am not disappointed. One of the best budget pcie 5 boards I've worked on.
