TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI, Intel Z790, 1700, ATX, 4 DDR5, HDMI, DP, Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5G LAN, PCIe5, RGB, 4x M.2

I bought this to replace my old Gigabyte MB that was 12th gen with DDR4 memory (although was reliable as sin from day one). For me the natural route was to upgrade to a 14th gen (backward compatible) DDR5 board to upgrade the CPU at a later date. The install was fine, some nice extras and also Wi-Fi if needed that works well. However not long after completing the build I started having random BSOD's and total system shutdowns for no reason. It carried on right up until I decided to try and see how it performs with a 14th gen CPU. I also had to run an older BIOS as the current one just would not work, so trying the older BIOS I got it to run. Changing the CPU was the trick, now using a 14th gen i9 I have not had one BSOD, nor system shutdown/failure. It is as solid as a rock. Not keen on the gimmicky software supplied but I can live with it, why it needs to constantly download every option beats me but other than that it is a good board, works well, is reliable and looks good if you have a glass sided case.

I always buy Asus Tuf motherboards because I want reliability. Looks great in a glass case setup and I have used them on my last three builds. I've paired this one with a gen14 i9 and DDR5 ram and it has worked without any problems as expected. I use it for both gaming and game creation and I honestly wouldn't look anywhere else. If you want a solid product that will last, I would highly recommend this brand.

Excelent motherboard. I have to change my original b760 wifi plus, and got this one and its such an improvement, machine works supper estable now, ram at full speed (DDR5 6400 mbts xmp II), connected with an i9 14900ks, it great, has loads to room for expansion if needed so it will stay with me for a long time. I dont use the PC for work, just 3D and illustration, and its flawless.

So far I'm impressed with this motherboard. Has plenty of space for components. Boasts 3 SSD slots, Wifi on it or my reception is poor not sure which. But other than that flawless so far. Performance wise doesn't miss a beat! Speed high performance, plenty of room for cooling and option for that! Overall impressed.

MB installed fine, all necessary hardware included. Manual was clear and easy to follow, performance is as expected - good. ASUS has a bad reputation currently for customer support, dodgy BIOS updates and frying AMD chips, that being said I have no issues with this MB, though you may want to consider MSI or anyone else until ASUS fix their internal issues.

Nicely designed motherboard, not over the top with RGB, quite understated design. Running 13th gen i5 and DDR5. Easy to use Bios. Four PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots give good storage upgrade potential. PCIE 5.0 with the safeslot and quick release gives greater confidence when using the larger modern graphics cards.

highly recommend

All working fine for just about 2 months, then looking like MB has failed. Still waiting on ASUS support regarding my query. Asus tells me to contact seller (Amazon) and Amazon tells me to contact manufacturer (Asus) absolutely useless service.

اشتريت مذربورد من ASUS من هذا المتجر وكانت تجربة ممتازة جداً. التغليف كان ممتاز ومحمي بشكل احترافي، والمنتج وصل بحالة جديدة ومختوم. الشحن كان سريع والتواصل رائع. المذربورد تعمل بكفاءة عالية بدون أي مشاكل، والمتجر كان صادق في الوصف والمواصفات. أنصح بالتعامل معهم وبكل تأكيد سأشتري منهم مرة أخرى.

Entrega rápida e placa muito boa

MOBO działa bezbłędnie, jednak: 1) pierwsze uruchomienie działało tylko na jednej kości DIMM, w tej konfiguracji aktualizacja BIOS i dopiero wtedy jest możliwe dołożenie drugiej kości. W innym przypadku płyta po prostu nie startowała. 2) BIOS jest... nieprzewidywalny. Przykładowo dopiero włączenie CSM pozwoliło mi na uruchomienie karty RAID, rzecz w tym, że ta karta jest w 100% zgodna z uEFI (i w tym trybie działała na poprzedniej płycie bezbłędnie). MOBO jest dobre, działa bezbłędnie z Windows 10 i systemami Linuxa ale powyższe błędy nie powinny mieć miejsca przy produkcie z półki średnia-wyższa. Na marginesie: czytając negatywne recenzje tej płyty, po raz kolejny utwierdzam się w poglądzie, że osoby bez wiedzy komputerowej nie powinny samodzielnie budować komputera.

I installed this about 3 weeks ago and it was pretty smooth sailing. There are lots of plastic film covers on various parts to keep it from scratching during install/shipping. Remember to peel them off as you are installing. It has some LED lights that can be turned on or off in the BIOS. Speaking of BIOS, Asus motherboards always have nice, clear and easy to use BIOS software. This one is no different. One feature that I likes (but also hated) was that the screws in the M.2 SSD heatsinks were attached to the heatsink. It makes it easier for those with bigger hands to get the screw in place. In the other hand, it also made it difficult to line the screw up with the hole. I feel like there could be a happy medium there. Finding the Windows drivers was pretty simple, but on first boot, you are prompted to install the Asus Armoury Crate software. It let's you control/view the fan speeds, LED lights, see the temperatures, install latest drivers and more. It's actually a really slick idea, but the software itself is awful. It takes up a lot of memory and it crashes all the time. I suggest installing it to get the fastest drivers, then uninstall it right away. NOTE: You will need to use Asus' Armoury Crate Uninstaller tool available on their website to completely rid yourself of it. So far, I haven't had any issues with the motherboard itself. Hopefully it stays that way for a long time.

Cut the cost in half buying through Amazon's Used option. Inside a generic brown box, it was carefully and safely packaged for shipping. It arrived in two days! The board works flawless with all of the features that I was looking for and expected at half of the price if buying it new. There are a lot of people that ship items back without ever even using them, and I highly recommend this option and this motherboard. If someone were to choose to buy this at it's current new price, this model is still a great choice. I'm just not sure for the full price that I personally would have went this route, because other models with the same options are available. It is a fantastic board, looks great with it's sleek all black military tough vibes going on. It has a very subtle RGB lighting effect on the top right corner. The setup is very simple and easy, but I've been putting computer builds together for over 25 years. Also my Lian Li Dynamic XL RGB case I've installed this board into is quite massive and would make almost any build super easy to assemble. So the ease of assembly really depends on not just skill but the case it is being installed in as well. This is a full sized board, and not a small mATX. My experience with the bios of this board and all of the features are as expected. I've definitely favored Asus for years now. This board has had no issues with my 13600k processor, or my two sticks of DDR5 6000 memory. I've easily enabled the xmp memory profile, and overclocking features to test and they all work as they should with my 13600k P-Cores hit an astonishing 5.7Ghz. After the test I've set the board back to it's default settings. Then adjusted the thermal limit and CPU voltage, setting limits, as well as making other various adjustments to ensure a very long lifespan. It is not required, but my preference. I very highly recommend this board, and am really glad that I chose to buy it used in good condition through Amazon. While I can definitely understand that this decision on such an important component for a computer seems like a very high risk, for me it was definitely worth it, costing me only half when comparing the price of new. Overall I'm left with no regrets and big savings on a high quality, top shelf, stellar product.
