    Overall, I was torn between the asus and msi brands. I always choose motherboards that are based on the intel company. The temperatures range between 25-33 degrees, just like my previous msi motherboard, the z590 pro A. Both the previous and this motherboard have easy BIOS, easy installation and upgrade internally and externally, and changing the components took me no more than 30 minutes to fix. The motherboard is used with an i7 13700k and corsair 64gb DDR5 5600mhz in 4 slots. I am satisfied as it has 0% coil whine.

    Impeccable motherboard in every aspect. I have installed a 13700K on it, with the appropriate tweaks in the BIOS, and the CPU runs perfectly fine. It lacks absolutely nothing and currently offers the best value for money for the Z790 platform. It is better than the competition's alternatives in this price range. However, the pictures do not do it justice, as in reality, its colors are black with silver, not white as shown in the company's photos. Paired with the silver Trident Z5 or Kingston's Renegade, it looks fantastic. It runs XMP 6400 CL 32 without any issues.
