NZXT N9 X870E - AMD X870E AM5 ATX Gaming Motherboard for Ryzen 9000/8000/7000-20+2+1, DDR5, 4X M.2

great motherboard looks clean and implements with other nzxt products well. I had a little trouble finding wifi drivers originally but nzxt has fixed this by adding more drivers and such to their website do note that if you want argb fans that you will need a hub unless you go with nzxt branded argb fans because they have their own connector other than that it works flawlessly and i have no complaints very easy for a beginner to install

My build: Motherboard: NZXT N7 B650E with integrated 4k GPU and onboard WiFi6 CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9900X RAM: 128GB DDR5 PSU: 1k Watt SSD: 1x 1TB + 1x 2TB, both Western Digital Liquid Cooling: GAMDIAS Aura GL240 V2, 240mm Chassis: GAMDIAS White ATX Mid Tower with 4x 120mm ARGB Fans This motherboard is excellent for the money. It boots up really fast, especially with the max load of 128GB of DDR5 RAM. It's made for the Ryzen 7000/8000/9000 series, and my CPU works very well with every component I added in. This sucker's practically a brick, so it's built solid while also easy to install. All USB ports work very well. The ARGB features, integrated 4k graphics, and onboard Wi-Fi 6 are very smooth. The only thing that caught me off guard is that this needs two power connectors to run. I knew of the 24 pin connector (located on the right-hand side) that powers the board itself, but I initially missed the 8 pin connector that powers the CPU and ports on the back. It's located on the upper left corner near the CPU. I'm used to building with boards that have a single power connector, so just remember to connect that 8 pin to your PSU and your board will work just fine.

Works perfect

Over the years of building my own systems and occasionally checking out new products I ended up trying this, what a mistake. The bios is basic, objectively archaic, and quite slow to boot. Still wanted to give it a try and loaded up all my programs/games. Ran decently on most things but on a not-so demanding game it stuttered every time there was any inkling of demand. Ran some testing and got some fairly inconclusive results as to what the issue was, so I planned to swap out ram, gpu, etc… one at a time and see if any improvements. None. The same result every time until I replaced all original parts and tried restarting. Nothing. No flicker of life. Checked seating, connections, inputs…nothing was out of order. It will not turn on. Threw in a spare motherboard that I had on hand, started up beautifully and without hesitation. Started the same game that I had tried on the NZXT and there were no performance issues. Looks like NZXT is off my list of products to try or buy.

Had zero issues getting it to boot after flashing the BIOS to 3.25 with a 9800x3D and two sticks of 6000 MHz DDR5 from Silicon Power. I’m in love with the looks and functionality of this board. My only complaint is not being able to use the existing heat sink on my Samsung 980 Pro SSD without leaving one of the covers off. Also, be extra careful with clearances if you plan to mount an AIO at the top. It can get tight in smaller cases.
