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)

Paid for a new motherboard, received a very used board with scratches and missing thermal pads.

First motherboard where I cant put the memory on XMP and forget about it. The memory is unstable on XMP. I tried adding the timings in manually and that didnt work either. Great board if youre an advanced over clocker, but Im not. Yes the newest bios is in. I think its 8.13

Incredible motherboard to say the least. This thing packs a lot of power. But do note that of you use all 4 slots and enable xmp it will not work. Either the system freezes or halts before loading. You can read more on reddit but any ddr5 that you get that says xmp 3.0 ready might not work with this mobo. At least until a newer firmware comes out.

I just built a new rig with an intel raptor with Corsair Dominator 128 gigs of 5600, an Evga supernova 1600 watts PSU, and it blue-screen-of-death when I overclock to xmp1/2. All drivers are up to date and firmware. I remember why I left Asus for Gigabytes.

likes its got it all cons cost

-0- issues. Installed easy, great feel to it, definitely a quality build. Two Bios updates already addressing misc issues. You may have heard about the 4 dimms not running XMP, Bios update 0813 addressed this. Running Gskill 4 x 16 @ 6000m smooth as butter as I type.

Bought this as soon as the Raptor Lake CPUs launched, so I put my new i9-13900 in this unit. Its the same shape and board layout as the Z690 model of this board, so the waterblocks and other things for the Z690 Hero seem to fit this board without any fuss. I cant guarantee that for *all* items, but the EKWB waterblock I had, for example, moved over and had no clearance issues at all.

This board cant support 128 Gb RAM .I used 4 of 32GB 6000 MHZ , shows error 55

The motherboard looks great and has impressive specs. Unfortunately it is very unstable despite tweaking the xmp profile to match various types of ddr5 corsair ram. Was eventually able to get stable enough to boot but then the nvidia 3080ti driver was causing the system to crash as soon as you open a browser window. The gpu began overheating just trying to run windows 10. The latest bios update seemed to smooth out the ram but not resolve it. The gpu then created a bsod error at which point I gave up and returned the motherboard. Currently waiting on refund so I can find a more stable option. I think asus needs to refine their high end mobo before releasing to the wild at this price point. Save your money and buy something else until they get their bios sorted out on this one. Also, numerous bent pins. There is a subreddit forum on the topic of this issue.

Es una motherboard de mucha calidad! Su instalación fue sencilla, los tips que puedo darles es al momento de instalarla tengan listo ya en un usb la última actualización de la bios que la pueden obtener de la página y también las actualizaciones del wifi y lan cuando instalen windows y con eso no tendrán problemas, excelente motherboard !!!
