Excellent design and build quality
by V SI knew when I opened the classy box that it'd be something special. The board has a nice heft and solidness to it which just shows how ASUS have done a good job in selecting the components/materials for it. BIOS very intuitive to use and easy to update. Flashback tool is very useful if you don't want to update the conventional way and just want to plug in a USB and update that way. Useful QLED light to show you if any errors on CPU/RAM/GPU with corresponding light - was very useful in diagnosing a faulty stick of RAM I had purchased. Cooler compatiblity is excellent - fit easily with my 280mm AIO cooler and no issues with RAM clearance either. ASUS have a good history of bios updates (used to have the Z170i Pro Gaming) so I know well supported for a while still. Haven't yet tried overclocking my CPU yet but judging by the high quality components should be a doozy! Overall well impressed by the board.
