ASUS ROG Strix Z890-H Gaming WiFi Z890 LGA 1851 ATX Motherboard, Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 2 Ready, Advanced AI PC-Ready, 16+2+1+2 Stages, DDR5, 5Gb LAN, WiFi 7, 4X M.2, PCIe 5.0, USB Type-C®, AI OC

After 30 years of building PCs, this MB was excellent to work with and fun at times. Clear and easy to read manual, easy to connect the front panel and more. Lots of extras. Can't go wrong with ASUS, with their reliability. Id did have one ASUS build turn into a nightmare, but they got redeemed with this Z790-E. Dropped a simple reliable i7 in and off we went. Avoided the problems of 13th and 14th Gen chips. BIOS is stable out the box, and easy to work with, again, right out of the box, with a notable exception of a minor hiccup recognizing a overpowered M2 Drive, that was my mistake. This board stands out for several reasons: Cool looking. Yeah, MB used to be beige and green, and smell like feet, now these designs & quality, woow! The back panel and ports feel incredibly solid and well-built. I also love the new tool-less M.2 slots and the two front panel USB 3.1 connectors. Performance: It works flawlessly with Windows 11, yeah WIN 10 is not longer supported come OCT 2025! Did I mention BIOS has been stable, requiring no crazy tweaks to get it working right. Has lots of things you may not need now a days, like sound ports for speakers. Wifi, cool, Bluetooth nice! Okay, it's expensive, and yeah a significant amount of bloatware. ASUS's "Armory Crate of $h" software is deeply rooted and can be difficult to uninstall, good lord, why can't they make that optional, which is a major frustration for me. Overall, despite the initial bloatware, this motherboard is a solid performer. I would buy it again, but, high cost and intrusive software are scratching at taking a single star off, but who am I to judge, ASUS did well on this one. 5 *****

Paired this with an Intel ultra 7 series 2 and 48 gb skill 8400 it's cudimm. Also n have an rtx 5070 founders edition. I had issues with the asus tuf mobo not wanting to set xmp right or not booting. I than tried an msi board and it was good but the npu would error if xmp was enabled. So I tried this board as a last resort. Updated the bios immediately and I got perfect xmp as well as no npu issues. This thing works with all the latest little tech bits and works well. Just make sure you update bios and firmware on all your components. Very happy.

Good motherboard but only buy this new. I bought it "Used- Like New" Condition and it came is Used condition at best. It was missing an entire M.2 heatsink. It was missing the manual. Capacitors on the motherboard its self were bent. There's some sort of substance that appears to be spilled or splashed on it for some reason. To top it all off it came with a seperate socket protector so the latch wasn't even closed, it was just resting shut.

I wish I could give this a higher rating but I can't. The first mob that I received failed to power up. The replacement had trouble booting up. When it did boot up it would not recognize 2 sticks of Dram. Both were returned.
