Keeping it brief, It's important to use memory slot 2 and 4 (from left to right) if you're using 2 sticks of ram. Otherwise, you'll not have a good time trying to get the rated speed from your ram. I came from a z690 Apex, and it was a worthwhile upgrade to get the increased memory speeds. It could only do 5600 MHz with a 14900KF. (My previous 13900KF degraded, since I modified the chip, no warranty) I'm still exploring the limits of this board since it's only been installed for a day but going great so far. I'm running Hynx M-die 8000, currently at 7400 working towards it. 8000 will get into windows, however it's unstable without hours of tweaking ahead. The software and BIOS are far less frustrating to navigate, it felt easy compared to the Asus bios. Glad I picked one up before they were unavailable.

Gen 5.0のM.2あるので　買いました、動作安定してて　良いマザー

Nice looking and very good equipped MBO.PC built on top of it is very stable.The excellent thing is that the MBO comes equipped with 2 front USB3 headers what means that if you have a PC case with 4 front USB ports you can use them all without the need to buy an additional PCI-e card with USB3 header. The most of the MBOs today come only with 1 front USB3 header.But there are 2 things which I found problematic and might be a reason why not to buy this MBO:1. BIOS is missing USB flashback button, means if your BIOS update fails for some reason like power outage you won't be able to re-flash it as the system won't be able to boot into BIOS and all you can do will be to send MBO for a repair or throw it to the nearest e-waste recycle depot. It's a shame that so well equipped MBO priced in this price range doesn't have that feature and other even very cheap MBOs have it.2. Maybe not important for the 99% of the buyers, but the locking mechanism for the SSD in the slot 1 can't be removed and replaced with the classic screw mechanism. This results with the inability to use SSD cooler other than the passive cooler which comes with MBO preinstalled on that SSD slot.

For this price, it’s unbeatable. It boasts a high quality build, good aesthetics, all the high-end features, and can run 7600mhz 24-hour stable with DDR5 tuning. It might even be able to run 7800mhz (depending on the CPU silicon), but it passes its efficiency curve with high voltage, which I personally wouldn’t consider safe. This outperforms all rip-off prices and poor-quality control ASUS’s 4 DIMM Z790 by default, good luck finding an ASUS mobo that can run 7200mhz 24-hour stable, even with their £600+ Maximus boards. I had ASUS z790 Apex boards that will cap out at 7800mhz with a 14900k that’s validated at 8200mhz.. save your time and money gents. I hope Asrock continue this way for all your platforms. One thing I can criticize about Asrock is that their BIOS menu could be improved and flush out the glitches. For the love of God, please provide a description of the changes you make in your BIOS updates.

Jag är helt nöjd.Många anslutningar.8 st. för fläktar.6 st. för M.2-enheter. Med snabb-fäste för M.2-enheten, man slipper att pilla med dessa små plottriga skruvar.Men bara 4 st. för SATA-enheter, men dessa är väl på väg bort.2 st. PCIe-x16 och 1 st. PCIe-x1.
