This is the only board that offers dynamic switching overclocking. So you can have the fastest single or low core count overclock, and still set a high all core overclock. This is the best board for a 5950x there is.

by John Williamson star star star star star

Buy it. And get the 5950X. Its actualy better than intels new 12900k on this board when properly set up without the silly power draw of an overclocked intel 12900k. While you are at it get the EK monoblock that cools vrms too. It doesent need it but it looks cool!


Superb Mobo

by Simon C star star star star star

Ok on the start of it I had already looked at the manual from Asus & downloaded it looked at it etc studied my wire & water plans.Very nice to see that the two nvme m.2 slots are apart from each other as my previous board was an asus crosshair formula with built on water block.This motherboard fly's it motors very fast board indeed the 2.5 lan port is superb as soon as you go onto the web it's instant.The mobo package itself is well presented & packed well and has all the bells & whistles under the sun I would say to anyone considering a new board just buy it you won't regret it honestly.Value for money bang on it just screams out at you with the perfomance of it.


Great Motherboard

by Elias J star star star star star

I've only had it a day, and other than some minor issues with condition of delivery, and a weird rattle it makes if I move it (though was assured this is very probably normal from the wifi connector) it's been great, looks stunning, quality of components is perfect, and hasn't disappointed me yet, I look forward to seeing how well it overclocks.
