There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This time I went with the trend of RGB and the board has a strip that compliments the rest of the build nicely. There’s 2 RGB headers on the board and the AURA software works like a charm to control all but one RGB part(the RAM fan is Corsair which requires its own software). The Coolermaster RGB fans are daisy chained and add a nice look to the PC, I thought only having 2 RGB headers would limit my options but a few splitters and I’m golden.
Overall this board is a beast for its price, there’s only a few boards I liked better but were much more expensive. I used the included CD to install the drivers since I didn’t have internet access initially, some reviewers have said that using older drivers would cause issues but it worked perfectly and I updated later.
My setup:
Define R6 Black TG case
This board
AMD Ryzen 1700x
EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB)
Corsair H60 Liquid CPU Cooler
Samsung 960 EVO M.2 Internal SSD
Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200rpm HDD
Thermaltake Smart Pro RGB 750W PSU
Corsair Dominator Platinum Airflow RGB LED memory Fan
XPG Storm RGB LED Cooling Heatsink for M.2 SSD
Cooler Master MasterFan Pro 140mm High Air Flow RGB Case Fan- 1 120mm Static Pressure fan on the H60 radiator
PROS:
Price
USB3.1, front and rear
Plenty of USB ports on rear
BIOS is very user friendly
2-way SLI and 3-way Crossfire support
EZ overclocking
M.2 SSD ready
AURA Sync
VR ready- if you want to use VR make sure you GPU also supports it
3D Printer support- I’ll never use it but it’s a cool feature
CONS:
1 USB 2.0 header, taken up by case I/O panel
Manual could be more specific in places but the necessary info is there
No WiFi, I don’t use WiFi on PC's but it’s a feature that should be on all boards nowadays imo
Wish there were more RGB headers but I’m not sure how many boards have more than 2
Overall I’d recommend this board to anyone, wether it’s for gaming, video editing, or just everyday use and you want to be future proofed. ASUS builds solid products and I’ve never had any problems with their boards in all the builds I’ve done for myself or friends/family.

But I am a graphic designer with a ryzen 7 2700x and a rtx 2070 and this boards kept everything together while I run every possible Adobe program with at least 5 documents in each for the last 4 years.
Just updated her to the latest 6036? Bios build so hopefully she'll take a new cpu.
Setup in my case was a cakewalk, adding RAM felt satisfying and not like the finger breaking experience you get with Some Intel Motherboards, Adding my CPU was the least stressful process ever, and overall one of the most impressive motherboards I've had the experience of dealing with.
+BIOS is beautiful and easy to use.
+POST is easy to read if needing to detect problems.
+MBD Status lights are not an eyesore like some.
+Streamlines putting components in.
+Amazing LED lights.
+Many SATA connections.
+Amazing sound quality and impedance detection.
+Wonderful AMP settings.
+Beautiful I/O Shield
+So many I/O Ports.
With the performance, abilities, options, and little tweaks you can do on this board really makes the experience all worth it. Giving satisfying results to suit nearly every users needs. The $ per performance is perfect, making it a well budgeted board.

Also supports AM3 mounting brackets for coolers, just like it's bog brother, the HERO VI.
Got my 1700 to 4ghz at 1.35v running with 3200mhz ram
My only disappointment is not having a PS/2 port which the new X470 fixes and that the black capacitors are only rated for 5k instead of 10k/12k like the HERO, Asrock fatality and Taichi. but these complaints are minimal, not worth losing a star.
Excelente calidad de material con lo que esta hecha.
Facilidad para hacer O.C sin tanto conocimiento por medio de ASUS AI 3 Suite, como por UEFI para usuarios avanzados.
Lo que mas me gusta es el Fan Expert, que me permite controlar mis ventiladores PWM a diferentes velocidades dependiendo del uso de la PC.

8.1のOSのインストールは以前の環境から換装のため再インストールはせず。ただ、マンスリーロールアップをインストールしないでカタログからセキュリティ更新プログラムだけと一部の更新プログラムインストールしなければ、windows updateで更新し続けられるそうですね。私はwufucを使っちゃいました。MSの半ば嫌がらせのポップアップは出ますがwindows updateはできます。(ポップアップを表示しない方法もあります。コンピュータの管理経由でサービスのwindows updateを無効にすれば出ません。ただ、それでも一部アプリをインストールしている最中にポップアップが出ることもあります。とあるニッチな環境構築のブログを参考にして更新プログラムが降ってくる時期には有効にして、手動でカタログからダウンロードしてインストール後、再び無効にする感じの運用です。)
Z270FでもLANドライバは自分で入れなければいけなかったので予めUSBメモリにダウンロードしていたのですが、デバイスマネージャーでは他にもwindows8.1ではPCIデバイス3つが!マークになっていて最初どうにもできないかと思いました。でも、デバイスマネージャーからwindows7用のチップセットドライバ(AMD_Chipset_Driver_Win7_V5.12.0.0031_20180205)をソフトウェア検出の参照にしたら更新できまして!マークが消えました。
その前にまず最新のチップセットドライバはBIOSを4801に更新した後に自動でインストールされた感じでしたね。
注:フォルダ形式からwindows7用のチップセットドライバをインストールしようとしてもインストールできません。AMDのサイトからPrevious Driversを指定してwindows7用のコンパイルされた19.10.0429のチップセットドライバはインストールできそうな雰囲気があります(上記のようにBIOSの更新時かどこかのタイミングで自動でインストールされたのでわかりません)。
Zen2つまりは3000番代のRyzenを価格がこなれてきたら購入したいと思っているのですがVRMがDIGI+VRMで8+2フェーズではあるのですがフェーズ数以上の性能があると思っていますのでだいぶ上位機種まで載せられるのではと期待しています。ただ、先駆者の評判を待って乗せるZen2 CPUを決めたいです。おそらくRyzen9 3950Xは厳しいだろうとは思っていますが。
ASUSのマザーボードはIntelのIvy-Bridge(P8Z77-V)、Skylake(Z270F)と続けて買ってきて安定しているので信頼しています。
流石にRyzen環境ではBIOSの設定項目がIntelとは違い戸惑いましたが、ネット上の色々な情報を参考に今のところ安定稼働させられています。
余談:
安定稼働させるまでのトラブル。Ryzen環境へPC換装後数日間での出来事(結局、PC及びメモリの帯電(か接触不良)が原因でした。)
最初メモリの定格運用時、フリーズしたりKP41エラーで落ちたりしてメモリ設定を変えました。CorsairのVENGEANCE LPX SeriesのHynix製は相性が悪いと聴いて、それが原因だと思ってメモリの電圧やSoCの電圧、VTT_DDRの電圧を上げました。メモリ電圧は1.35V、SoCは1.1V弱、VTT_DDRは0.9Vくらい。それで一旦落ちなくなりました。memtest86+も通っています。
しかしシャットダウン後、PCを起動しようとするとPCは動いてファンが全開に回るもののPOSTしないトラブル(BIOS画面までいかないでモニタが真っ暗のまま)があって、POSTしないトラブルの頻度も上がっていきました。原因を探っているうちに最終的に帯電しているのが原因だと判明しました。電源を落としてプラグを外して放電後一度POSTしたのですけれど、またPOSTしません。で、マザーボードをよく見てみるとメモリのLEDのところが点灯しています。
またメモリかと思いましたが、検索してみるとメモリの刺し直しで直るというのをいくつか見かけたのでダメ元でメモリの挿し直しをしてみたら、いままでの不具合が嘘みたいに安定稼働するようになりました。
どうもメモリが帯電していたのか、あるいはメモリの装着がうまく行っているようでうまく行っていなかったみたいです。Ryzen環境への移行時PC内を掃除したのですが、いい加減な掃除でしたのでどこかに隠れていた起動前に排出しきれていなかった埃が静電気を呼び込み悪さしていたのかもしれません。
安定稼働後メモリの設定を2933MhzにOCしつつメモリ電圧を1.32Vに落としても今のところ安定稼働しています。Cinebench R15はもちろんのことFF14ベンチマークも完走しました。Minecraftも遊べています。
マザーボードやメモリの初期不良や故障などでなくてよかったです。
追記、このレビューを書いてから1ヶ月少々、メモリ起因でフリーズや落ちることがやっぱり起きました。電圧を上げれば頻度が下がり、1.38Vまであげたところ安定しました(7月下旬)。タイミングを18-20-20-20程度まで緩めたりprocODTなども68.6Ωへと調整しました。
余談ですがSkylake環境では電源ユニットのAK750、12Vや5Vなど割といい数字だったのですが、Ryzen環境では電源ユニットへの要求がシビアなのか、Minecraftプレイ時12Vは11.903V~11.707Vの間で動きます(時々11.641Vも記録)。5Vも4.851Vまで低下しています。Skylake環境では12Vは12V~11.808V、5Vは4.960Vでした。

安定稼働後メモリの設定を2933MhzにOCしつつメモリ電圧を1.32Vに落としても今のところ安定稼働しています。Cinebench R15はもちろんのことFF14ベンチマークも完走しました。Minecraftも遊べています。
マザーボードやメモリの初期不良や故障などでなくてよかったです。
追記、このレビューを書いてから1ヶ月少々、メモリ起因でフリーズや落ちることがやっぱり起きました。電圧を上げれば頻度が下がり、1.38Vまであげたところ安定しました(7月下旬)。タイミングを18-20-20-20程度まで緩めたりprocODTなども68.6Ωへと調整しました。
余談ですがSkylake環境では電源ユニットのAK750、12Vや5Vなど割といい数字だったのですが、Ryzen環境では電源ユニットへの要求がシビアなのか、Minecraftプレイ時12Vは11.903V~11.707Vの間で動きます(時々11.641Vも記録)。5Vも4.851Vまで低下しています。Skylake環境では12Vは12V~11.808V、5Vは4.960Vでした。
