Super Great Value
I bought this for my server after getting a good deal on a much bigger cpu, this board is so nice I almost wanted to swap it for my main PC's board instead of cramming it in the server, such good value for money and I never thought I would say that about a Strix board

WORTH THE MONEY!!
This motherboard has a very premium design filled to the brim with feautures, the bios is clocked with every option and overclocking ability you could need with great rgb software (armoury crate) the vrms cooling is very well designed it supports docp and has rebar for my arc A750 and runs my ryzen 5 5600 very well

Solid Performance and Easy Setup
The motherboard looks amazing and feels solid. It has plenty of ports and slots, more than I expected, and everything just works smoothly. The only thing I wish it had was some RGB lighting on the board itself and built-in Wi-Fi, but other than that, it’s a solid board for the price well worth it.

Easiest transfer MB ever
I love this board, first time I was able to transfer all my components to a new board without driver issues. The board booted up and autodownloaded all relevant drivers making it the first plug and play MB I've installed. Slick design with a great companion app to see the PC specs and drivers in one place.

Love it
I was going to go with a reallllly cheap AM4 socket for my kid's first PC build but "splurged" a bit on what I thought was a really good deal. Totally worth it. This is just a great motherboard in every way. And it's really pretty to boot. I'm a huge Asus fan generally. Totes worth it

Great
Looking great, seeing many saying it doesn't have enough RGB headers, was more than enough, just depends on what you put in it i guess, pump header is a bit awkwardly placed, not sure if its the same on other board, as well as having had to stack the 2 rubber support blocks for the SSD cause just 1 still leaves a big gap between the SSD and support, overall very happy with it.
