ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Hero (WiFi 6E) LGA 1700(Intel®13th&12th Gen) ATX Gaming Motherboard(PCIe 5.0,DDR5,20+1power Stages,2.5Gb LAN, Bluetooth V5.2,2X Thunderbolt 4 Ports,5xM.2, Thunderbolt™ 4/USB4)

I have stuck with ASUS for every build. I did because of their reliability - until now. I have a lot of experience building systems. I tried every trick I could think of to get this unit working: updated the BIOS and all the other items, like chipset updates, tried different variations of known good hardware, switched out the DRAM modules in different configurations, et. al., but nothing worked. All the hardware met ASUS compatibilty lists.

likes its got it all cons cost

Have had this board in my rig for a few months now running a 13900k with 128GB of DDR5 Dominator 5600 RAM and a 3080Ti (I know, graphics cards arent cheap nor in ample supply). For the first few weeks I didnt have many issues only for the occasional BSOD. Updated the BIOS the first time and then my system became even more unstable. Updated to the latest 813 BIOS and I wasnt able to go 5 minutes without a BSOD. I first thought maybe it was windows 11 not liking something so I downgraded to win 10 and even had added an extra NVME drive to install Ubuntu. Both crashed as well. So I went searching the web and found a forum that hinted at the issue of this board not being stable with 128 GB of RAM. So I tested it and took the a1 and b1 sticks off the board. Not a single crash since. I hope they fix this soon.

Awesome. Very posh

Excelente funcionamiento y calidad

great board overall but Im having issues with the onboard usbs mine are failing and ASUS has no inventory for advance RMA. Ive been on hold with Asurion for about 30 minutes at this point trying for a viable solution. I will say overall ASUS is a great MB provider. Asurion warranty Ill have to update on later.

Excelenter placa, como todas las de la linea Hero.

This board so far, rocks. love all of the features, costly, but worth it, if you are into high end computer builds.

My only problem with this is about the chipset getting 75 grades idle… playing simple games with ultra resolution like Overwatch it can reach 81 grades. When powering it on. It gets 55 grades.
