## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing board with the latest features. If you're not running Windows check for OS Support.
*by B***T on May 3, 2025*

I have used PC parts from most of the major manufactures. Some I have found to have equal build quality, but lacking in some other aspect. Normally horrible customer support or discontinuing product and not providing updated bios or drivers after that point.I have another Asus motherboard that runs my containerized applications. It's an ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero X570. Yes Asus makes workstation motherboards, but this was repurposed when I bout this new ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi board. I've been using it for about four months now and have had no issues*. No hardware comparability issues, and the default bios fan curves work great for me for a good balance of cooling and a low db noise level.The one complaint I have with every manufacture is their custom software. It would be a much better world if they all worked together to have a single dashboard for monitoring your system and keeping your drivers up to date. It would be even better if that project were fully open sourced. By that I mean the dashboard, not the drivers as many of those come from specific chip-set manufactures. That said the new Armoury-Crate dashboard application is far better than the one one that was originally available when I bought my older ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero X570. It's this type of continual improvement and listening to the community that in my opinion pushes Asus in front of the competition.While I do buy from Asus' ROG gaming line, I do so because I need the performance their products in this line deliver. I primarily work in Blender3D and Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Studio. With this new ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi board works great for that in Windows, I often do a god bit of my work in Linux. That is what the asterisk above comes in. This is not a negative on Asus, but rather the chip-set manufactures in that there are many things that do not work in Linux at this moment. For the most part Asus can only influence the manufactures to work with the Linux community, and at the same time they cannot only use parts that are Linux compatible because that would mean not using the newest and or best components available.As for Asus' support, it's good. Everything could always be improved, but in the few interactions I've I did not get someone asking me for information that I had already provided in my original request. This is an issue I've had with many other companies and I hope Asus continues with good support and taking feedback from the community and content providers like Linuxx Tech Tips, GamerNexus, Roman (der8auer) Hartung.If you are looking for a new motherboard, go to Asus' website and use their comparison tools. This may not be the right board for you, but they certainly have one that is. Don't hesitate to contact their support to ask question. The biggest reason people complain about a company instead of a specific product is they did not do enough research and they did not reach out to the manufacture for advice. If that manufacture doesn't want to help you then move on. So far Asus has been helpful, even when they have had to tell me that my question, usually Linux related, isn't something they can answer and that I'm better getting an accurate answer from that community.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing (but chonky) X870E board!
*by J***B on February 6, 2025*

I've used almost exclusively ASUS motherboards going all the way back to the 1990's and I don't honestly recall ever having problems with them. I've purchased everything from the top end ASUS motherboards to their entry level motherboards over the last 30 odd years (though I've tended towards their high end boards since the early 2000s) I can say they all just work and do what they claim they will do.This board continues that tradition of rock solid performance from ASUS and I'm very happy with my purchase. I also enjoy my first opening of the motherboard box like a kid on Christmas, and this board really stood out as one of the best looking boards I've purchased in the last 10 years or so. The first thing I noticed with this one after the obvious visual appeal was the weight. I was upgraded from the X570 to the X870E with this and this motherboards has a lot of aluminum and a lot of weight! To call this thing chonky is an absolutely fair statement.The trade of with all that aluminum of course, is cooler temperatures for your VRM (which is totally overkill for the 9950X!) and cooler temperatures and better performance of your NVMe drives both Gen5 (My Gen5 NVMe drive stays at a relatively cool 42c!). My Gen4 NVMe drives hover right around 44c, I was worried about the heat in the Gen5, turns out with this particular board that is a non-issue.The latest BIOS (1003 as of this writing) improves gaming performance with the 9950X and works beautifully to park your unused cores to better improve your frame rates. If I had one complaint with my upgrade is that training DDR5 is a slow process. Fortunately you only have to do that once (more if you're tweaking your memory) but for me it's select the non-tweaked profile in BIOS and it's been rock solid since (I had issues with the tweaked profile crashing games, and switched to the standard one, and the problems went away).I settled on this particular board as it had all the features I was looking for, at a price I thought was reasonable. I did my research and while I did briefly consider an ASRock motherboard I ended up settling on this for both the lanes for the NVMe and keeping my graphics card PCIE slot at x16! It also has amazing connectivity on the rear I/O shield. All that and my great experience with ASUS motherboards is why I picked this. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with ASUS motherboards.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Motherboard with plenty of features.
*by R***T on September 15, 2025*

Terrific product. Worked perfectly with my AMD 9800X3D. Plenty of SSD slots and USB ports for upgrades down the road. Excellent build quality and very happy with my purchase.
