    I've had it for almost 5 years. It has received quite a few upgrades (for example, I've upgraded the CPU 3 times and the GPU 2 times). Comfortable BIOS, excellent support from ASUS. The only problem I had (and still have) is that one of the two RGB headers stopped working (I spoke with ASUS and they would replace it for me even out of warranty, but I couldn't wait the one month they needed)

    The first Microatx I have purchased and I am completely satisfied. With performance and how user-friendly the bios is.

    P.S.: For overclocking, it recognized the xmp memory in the 2/4 slot instead of the 1/3.

    A very good motherboard choice, perfect in every aspect, except for one point that gave me a little trouble. When I tried to fit it into the IO shield, which had some little tabs, it didn't fit easily. In the end, I decided to bend them a bit and it fit, otherwise flawless!

    With Ryzen 3200G with 8GB RAM Gskill 3200, NVME Kingston 500GB, and a simple 450W PSU, it runs Fortnite and GTA V smoothly without a separate graphics card in full HD with the stock cooler!! You can easily set up a decent system economically.
    Update 28.12.2020:
    While everything was fine at first, now the USB 3.2 ports are not working, and the network port is also not working anymore. The Win10 Pro does not recognize the network card, despite reinstalling the drivers. I see it going for RMA... :(
    Eventually, one day the PC didn't turn on again, it powered up but there was no sound of error, and no display, not even BIOS... Rest in peace... :(

    After 1 year of operation, while everything was running smoothly, problems started with the LAN port. It constantly lost signal and the internet would cut off. In the first few days, it happened 1-2 times a day, but then the problem increased (around 10-15 days after the first issue). Eventually, RAM slot 2 burned out. It was sent back and replaced by the store it was purchased from with a different one, as it was considered faulty.

    I want to believe that I ended up with a faulty piece and not just that it lasted for 1 year... It was purchased on 10/6/2020 and replaced in May 2021

    A very good motherboard for its price! Very easy BIOS, clear ports, 2 fan ports, I would prefer one more but you can always use a fan splitter. + Another positive is that if you install 2 RAM sticks, the slots are the 2nd and 4th compared to others that are 1st and 3rd, allowing you to fit a larger aftermarket cooler if desired.

    Excellent budget motherboard with Asus quality!
    Supports all Ryzen AM4 socket processors as well as Gddr5 graphics cards. It's perfect for a budget Ryzen gaming PC.

    As for the booting issue mentioned by another user in their review, it has nothing to do with the motherboard but rather with the incorrect placement of PC case cables on the motherboard. Personally, this is the first time I've heard of this, and for me, the booting is immediate and without any problems.

    I bought this motherboard to build a DIY Nas that would run a file server and Plex media server for my home. I chose it because it had 6 SATA ports instead of the 4 that cheaper B450 motherboards have. I found out that if you connect an m.2 drive, it loses the last 2 SATA ports (5 and 6) because they are shared. However, Asus mentioned this on their website, so it's my fault for not researching more. It is very stable, XMP runs on the memory without any issues, overall a great product for its price.

    Very good choice with user-friendly bios, easy installation and connection, plenty of ports to connect everything. As another friend mentioned, it boots with any keyboard button. No matter what I tried from the bios, I couldn't disable it. Not that it bothers me, on the contrary, it's actually convenient, but for theoretical reasons. If anyone knows how to disable it, please help, just so we are aware.

    a good motherboard in the mid-range price range. It has plenty of USB 3.1 ports and has user-friendly BIOS. The only downside is that it does not support SLI/CROSSFIRE. However, it is a decent motherboard, nothing more, nothing less

    A great motherboard in every aspect. I bought it in combination with a Ryzen 7 2700x. As for the issue with RAM synchronization at 3000mhz and above, after a lot of searching, I found a tip that someone suggested on the internet and it worked. Place the memory modules in Slots A2 and B2 (second and fourth from the left) and then enable D.O.C.P., they will work flawlessly at 3000mhz.

    Both mine and another one that my technician used for the exact same build on a kid, exhibit the following unusual behavior: The computer starts up and boots normally by pressing the keys on the keyboard. Initially, this behavior surprised me, but eventually I found it convenient since I don't have to bend down to press the button on the tower, which is under the desk. Of course, we still haven't figured out how (and if) this specific function can be disabled, so that we can start the computer in the classic way. Sometimes you accidentally press the keyboard while the computer is off and you don't want to turn it on... and it... beeps... and starts booting.

    I hope no one buys hardware pieces without doing some research beforehand!
    I connected this specific one with a Ryzen 5 2600 system worth 750€... it has an easy-to-use BIOS!
    Almost a month has passed and it hasn't presented any issues!
    In short, a very good budget motherboard

    With Ryzen 3200G with 8GB RAM Gskill 3200, NVME Kingston 500GB, and a simple 450W PSU, it runs Fortnite and GTA V smoothly without a separate graphics card in full HD with the stock cooler!! You can easily set up a decent system economically.
    Update 28.12.2020:
    While everything was fine at first, now the USB 3.2 ports are not working, and the network port is also not working anymore. The Win10 Pro does not recognize the network card, despite reinstalling the drivers. I see it going for RMA... :(
    Eventually, one day the PC didn't turn on again, it powered up but there was no sound of error, and no display, not even BIOS... Rest in peace... :(

    After 1 year of operation, while everything was running smoothly, problems started with the LAN port. It constantly lost signal and the internet would cut off. In the first few days, it happened 1-2 times a day, but then the problem increased (around 10-15 days after the first issue). Eventually, RAM slot 2 burned out. It was sent back and replaced by the store it was purchased from with a different one, as it was considered faulty.

    I want to believe that I ended up with a faulty piece and not just that it lasted for 1 year... It was purchased on 10/6/2020 and replaced in May 2021

    A very good motherboard for its price! Very easy BIOS, clear ports, 2 fan ports, I would prefer one more but you can always use a fan splitter. + Another positive is that if you install 2 RAM sticks, the slots are the 2nd and 4th compared to others that are 1st and 3rd, allowing you to fit a larger aftermarket cooler if desired.

    I wear Ryzen 5 2400G and it works like a charm! As someone who doesn't really engage in gaming, it is more than satisfactory!! Over time, I will tell you about its reliability, although I consider Asus to be a safe choice.

    Excellent budget motherboard with Asus quality!
    Supports all Ryzen AM4 socket processors as well as Gddr5 graphics cards. It's perfect for a budget Ryzen gaming PC.

    As for the booting issue mentioned by another user in their review, it has nothing to do with the motherboard but rather with the incorrect placement of PC case cables on the motherboard. Personally, this is the first time I've heard of this, and for me, the booting is immediate and without any problems.

    I bought this motherboard to build a DIY Nas that would run a file server and Plex media server for my home. I chose it because it had 6 SATA ports instead of the 4 that cheaper B450 motherboards have. I found out that if you connect an m.2 drive, it loses the last 2 SATA ports (5 and 6) because they are shared. However, Asus mentioned this on their website, so it's my fault for not researching more. It is very stable, XMP runs on the memory without any issues, overall a great product for its price.

    Very good choice with user-friendly bios, easy installation and connection, plenty of ports to connect everything. As another friend mentioned, it boots with any keyboard button. No matter what I tried from the bios, I couldn't disable it. Not that it bothers me, on the contrary, it's actually convenient, but for theoretical reasons. If anyone knows how to disable it, please help, just so we are aware.

    a good motherboard in the mid-range price range. It has plenty of USB 3.1 ports and has user-friendly BIOS. The only downside is that it does not support SLI/CROSSFIRE. However, it is a decent motherboard, nothing more, nothing less

    A great motherboard in every aspect. I bought it in combination with a Ryzen 7 2700x. As for the issue with RAM synchronization at 3000mhz and above, after a lot of searching, I found a tip that someone suggested on the internet and it worked. Place the memory modules in Slots A2 and B2 (second and fourth from the left) and then enable D.O.C.P., they will work flawlessly at 3000mhz.

    Both mine and another one that my technician used for the exact same build on a kid, exhibit the following unusual behavior: The computer starts up and boots normally by pressing the keys on the keyboard. Initially, this behavior surprised me, but eventually I found it convenient since I don't have to bend down to press the button on the tower, which is under the desk. Of course, we still haven't figured out how (and if) this specific function can be disabled, so that we can start the computer in the classic way. Sometimes you accidentally press the keyboard while the computer is off and you don't want to turn it on... and it... beeps... and starts booting.

    I hope no one buys hardware pieces without doing some research beforehand!
    I connected this specific one with a Ryzen 5 2600 system worth 750€... it has an easy-to-use BIOS!
    Almost a month has passed and it hasn't presented any issues!
    In short, a very good budget motherboard

  • I've had it for almost 5 years. It has received quite a few upgrades (for example, I've upgraded the CPU 3 times and the GPU 2 times). Comfortable BIOS, excellent support from ASUS. The only problem I had (and still have) is that one of the two RGB headers stopped working (I spoke with ASUS and they would replace it for me even out of warranty, but I couldn't wait the one month they needed)

  • The first Microatx I have purchased and I am completely satisfied. With performance and how user-friendly the bios is.

    P.S.: For overclocking, it recognized the xmp memory in the 2/4 slot instead of the 1/3.

    G.Skill RipjawsV 8GB DDR4-3200MHz
    +MSI Radeon RX 570 8GB Armor OC
    +AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Box
    +Gigabyte P650B
    = 467 euros

    and I play EVERYTHING in 1080p high.
    Now, for appearance and extra cooling, something more comes out.

    +Kolink Stronghold Black
    +Thermaltake Pure Plus 12 RGB Radiator Fan TT Premium Edition (3-Fan Pack) 120mm
    = 563 euros

  • 2 months that I'm using it, I have no issues.
    I consider it reliable.
    I will come back with new comments...
    Of course, it concerns a new system and I am still processing it.
