Solid,heavy, and no problems right out of the box after flashing to new bios with I-9 13900K. Decided to play it safe and only use other components listed on the MSI compatibility docs. Initial startup and loading the OS and driver to get it basically in operation was flawless.

Wifi Built in

7600mhz XMP working beautifully right out of the box. I am coming from the exact same mobo but Z490 10th gen. The old mobo had a sad I/O plate but this new rig is fully integrated and comparing the two makes me laugh, the old one looks so cheap. The wifi and Bluetooth are excellent, reaching across a big room to my DualShock controllers.

- Two LED ARGB light zones. One by the heatsinks and one by the chipset. Can set up different effects using GCC. I wasn't expecting the motherboard to have lights on it. Photos attached show the two zones in white. - Extensive BIOS options. Not sure how to tweak everything for max performance. There are auto tweak settings as well. - Great front panel I/O options. - Easy to install and setup.

Another easy build with MSI Z790 mainboard. Assembly was easy, BiOS update was easy and Windows 11 installed quickly. Base temperature 31/32 degrees (14700KF) + RTX5070 TI OC. -Board is very full featured. -Components are good quality. -Cooling Sinks are good quality and complete. -Very cool and functional BIOS interface. -Austere look but includes RGB controller.

Socket LGA 1700 PCI-e 4.0 Inexpensive

I was upgrading two PCs to run Windows 11. Inexpensive with plenty of USB 2 and 3 ports. Meets my needs - I am not a gamer

ALERT! It's 2025 already, and this motherboard will not recognize a GPT-partitioned device as bootable! Once I figured out why I didn't seem to have any bootable drives, I formatted and partitioned my M2 SSD with a MS-DOS partition table, and it was good to go. I bought a pair of 24 GB G.Skill Trident DDR5 DIMMs that are listed on the ASROCK QVL. The CPU is an Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF. I learned that my nice legacy heatsink was incompatible with the heatsink footprint (the 4 holes) on a LGA 1851, so I bought a Noctua NH-D9L and it works great. CPU temp with air cooling is 32-35C. I;ve been a pretty reliable Asus MB user over the years, but this ASROCK unit is getting the job done for me and I have zero regrets for this decision.


-5 slots for m2 SSDs -13th gen and ddr 5 compatibility -bios is user friendly and Smart -ia overcloking in one click -a lot of connector ( srgb, usb port, Sata etc) , more Than you need -driver installation with Armory Crate is Peace of cake

It looks nice, has the right pin set, and is heat sinked


I replaced a bad MSI board. Instruction manual was easy to read, and overall the machine performance seems a bit better than the busted MSI Board. Love the pcie 5.0 release button. Drivers are packaged to install at first boot. So far running great.

Easy setup, great support and functionality was perfect for my application.

The motherboard works great and POSTED right away. The WiFi speed is actually incredbile - WiFi 6 is a huge upgrade. On 1.5 Gbps Rogers service, I'm getting over 550 Mbps, which is fantastic. Updated the BIOS right away.

Looks great Very sturdy Simple bios

I was so impressed by how easy it was to assemble this and also the price was very affordable. Great working motherboard processor combination super fast. I put a 50 series RTX card on it. Its a nice new DDR five and 1000 W power supply. The machine works killer Very impressed.

Great price, good board.

-aesthetically pleasing -ease of install due to plugs being on backside -everything is in its usual spot just relocated to the back
