Exactly what I wanted esthetics with useability no complaints gonna enjoy

Very happy with this motherboard. Has been rock solid so far with everything I have thrown at it.Lots of sata ports, if you like lots of drives.Previously used Asus, but I think I prefer this one now.

AsRock makes the prettiest motherboards. I used to have the AsRock z590 Pro and I had to upgrade to z790 for 13th gen and I wasn't sure if Asrock Had the same model for this new generation, and luckily they do, and it looks even better now with the closed IO Shield already attached to the motherboard, the RGB, the Silver-White finishes it has. It's simply the most beautiful motherboard design in my opinion, only thing that could make it even prettier would be more heatsinks for the rest of the PCI-E connections such as the rest of the M.2. and stuff. But appart from that I hope they keep bringing this model for the new mobo generations because I will keep buying it because I love their taste in design.I was unable to set xmp to the ram's native speed of 7800mhz, even with the i9 13900ks, which is pretty much an i9 14900k LOL. But it works perfectly at 7200mhz, which is what the motherboard promises. Massive improvement from the 10th gen set up I was using before. I play PUBG and I'm getting at least 100 more frames than before with 10th gen DDR4.

Just bought it, assembled my entire build and just waited for my gpu. finally got it slotted it in and no signal, I tried everything from DDU and updating and cleaning resetting drives, swapping gpu's, swapping power cables and still doesn't register the gpu but the gpu still lights up and spins on booting but doesn't work, the device manager doesn't register the gpu at all and cant detect it and cant download AMD drives as it doesn't detect it so it refuses to download, and there are no new bios updates, and now I cant even return it as I've already unboxed itCPU: i7 14700kGPU RX 7800xtPSU:850 fully modularRAM: DDR5 Crucial 32gb

It's not the cheapest, it's not the most expensive. I've used ASRock before in NAS builds, but this one is in a desktop. This one doesn't disappoint.Four NVME PCI4 (one direct to CPU), the others via the Z790 chipset. 8 further Sata that can all be used even with the four NVME so excellent for content creators.m2 slot for wifi/Bluetooth and holes pre-cut for external antenna.Excellent BIOS with auto recovery and every tweak you could desire if that's your thing.3 usb 3.14 usb 2.01 usb c 3.2 on the rearhdmi and DisplayPortThunderbolt header.With the right case a further 2 usb3.1 and 1 usb c 3.2 on the front.Built-in ARGB, two 5v ARGB headers, two 12v RGB headers, dual CPU fan, and four further fan connectors.Rock solid and fast.Managing 5100 on 128mb which is better than advertised so very happy.Update 20/07/23.With the latest bios now have 5600 memory stable at 5600. (which incidentally is 2 packs of 2x32gb kingston fury beast - i notice the website doesn't approve of mixing different batches but the 4x pack is a massive premium)
