ASUS Prime Z690-A LGA 1700(Intel 12th) ATX Motherboard (16+1 DrMOS,PCIe 5.0,DDR5,4X M.2, Intel 2.5 Gb LAN,USB 3.2 Gen 2 Front Panel Type-C,Thunderbolt™ 4,Aura Sync RGB Lighting)

The motherboard came DOA it would not post after completing all troubleshooting steps through ASUS they said I could RMA it just to state that it would take up too 10 business days plus shipping time. I think that is disgraceful and have switched to an MSI Board.

In general, its a good mobo.

Works well, loving the white look

Do not buy 5lthis board unless you want to pay 2000 dollars for ddr5 ram I will be returning mine

After 10 years of having the same computer build, it was time for an upgrade. I was hesitant to get this board because of a few reviews where people said that you should update the BIOS right away before you do anything else. I didnt do that. I just built my new gaming computer, pressed the power button, and hoped for the best. This board didnt disappoint. It took a moment longer than I expected to boot to the BIOS but when it finally did, I was so happy. I installed Windows 10 Home and then updated that. I updated my GPU driver to the most recent driver. Some minor tweaks and now everything is running better than I expected.

You need a 12th gen cpu to boot in the bios to update it to support 13th gen. It does not have bios flashback.

I have spent 3 months dealing with random BSOD and issues. Finally ran memtest from bios and memory was failing, even when under clocked. The memory is 2x 32GB Corsair Vengeance 5200 DDR5 memory. I tried adding fans to cool memory and it still failed. Did all the bios updates and it was more stable but still failed. Finally heard online that someone swapped memory slots from A1/B1 to A2/B2 and was more stable. Sure enough no memory failures when moving RAM to A2/B2 slots.

BIOS issues all day. Couldnt upgrade past 0707

This motherboard will not post with the 13th gen intel CPU. The only option is to use a 12th gen CPU to upgrade the bios so that it will function. Itll cost me another $100 to get this done locally.

Works great after a couple of days troubleshooting.
