ROG STRIX Z390-E Gaming

Had this thing for about 5-6 years now? No problems and it’s going strong! Don’t know much about computers a whole lot, not like an enthusiast but I know I needed one good enough to play games with. It’s pretty good, lots of usb ports. I’d say it’s budget friendly at the time and my budget was about $1100.

These are excellent motherboards, my 3rd one in 10 or so years. The only issue that I have is with this motherboard and there are 2. 1) The user's manual is in Chinese. WHY? I live in the USA and I bought this in the USA but the manual is in Chinese. 2) The included DVD, why a DVD I don't understand, but the DVD errors out on installing the drivers. I even tried my internal ASUS DVD burner and an external USB HP DVD drive and they both fail reading from the included DVD. ASUS provides and excellent in gaming motherboards in general except this time they fumbled a bit. Will this atop me from buying ASUS products in the future? NO A bit disconcerting is that upon registering on the ASUS website, this shows up as a Warranty Expired, why is that if I purchased this as brand new?

this is my third time to buy this motherboard because im always doing water cooling and i make a mistake and always burn them out all my fault no more water cooling. I bought another one why because its my favorite motherboard it does everything i need for a advance gaming compute also its quality and the RGB is awesome. I have 11 RGB fans and led lights on this thing and it does it all. For the money you're not going to find a better one with out paying a grand so i love it .

I got one mobo that was DOA. Amazon fixed the issue quickly. The safe locks on the mobo is supporting my heavy video card without a issue. It is beautiful and works well. It only has one RGB addressable port yet three RGB headers so thats a bummer as all my fans are RGB addressable. The aura sync seems to work well. I just run a rainbow. If it breaks I will be sure to say so. Only downside is I had to wait almost two weeks for the DOA one to come in. The replacement was to me in three days.

I haven't built my own PC for quite a few years but decided to do so again. This new board is amazing. There are a ton of detailed technical reviews on-line so I won't go into all of that here, but this board was the best value for the money that I found after hours of extensive research. I'm using the I7-9700K with some Overclock, 3200 DDR, and two Samsung 970 Storage NvMe's. I've also added a GigaByte 2070 Super. When I benchmark my PC it always achieves "UFO" status, and is in the top percentages, and I am not tuning it just for the high benchmarks. It hits this benchmark with extreme stability. The "Automatic OC" Bios setting of this motherboard is a fantastic capability. A few BIOS tweaks, and then using that setting and this board makes everything run at the extreme. It made my PC build a breeze.

Extremely well made mobo! They thought of everything. Well placed fan headers, nice rgb lighting, built in I/O shield is convienent but not necessary. OC my delidded I7 8700k to 5.0ghz with out a sweat. BIOS is well layed out and easy to navigate. Only minor complaint is the size of the I/O front shielding where the RGB is. In can make plugging in the CPU header hard to reach. However if you realize this as your installing you can avoid such a headache. Also comes with a small vmos fan to keep them cool under your awesome OC's you can do with this motherboard. Highly recommend and will be using one on my next build. Good job Asus. Well done.

I purchased one from New Egg and the RAM wouldn't go past 2133MHz. It just refused to POST. I returned it and they took so long to accept the return, they had run out of new motherboards. So I got a refund and purchased is here on Amazon. The product booted well on the first try and had the most up-to-date BIOS. I restarted the PC and used XMP1 to "OverClock" the RAM to 3200MHz and it boots/runs perfectly fine. It's $30 more than the ASUS RoG Strix Z390-F, but comes w/a few features over it. It has Bluetooth/Wi-fi and USB 3.0 Gen 2 connector.

After buying this MB from Amazon, I went out on vacations and on the way back, the new computer was assembled together. At the so waited moment, I pressed the power button and... NOTHING HAPPENED! There was a led showing some kind of problem with the RAM. I borrowed an identical memory bank from my friend to troubleshoot, and again it wouldn't boot. I Contacted Amazon, and since it was slightly over 30 days, they said that a replacement or refund were not possible because 30 days have already passed. They sugested me to call ASUS for the warranty. ASUS was called, a RMA was done, MB sent and received from them. Time to assemble the computer again, and this time it started up! Great! But it didn't last long. The system worked fine for slightly over a month, and suddenly it wouldn't boot again. But this time, no led lights indicating any failures on RAM, GPU, CPU or anything. Troubleshooting done again, memory banks swapped, looking for loose cables and connexions (even though the setup was closed and never touched after the initial startup), but nothing was found that would explain what was wrong. Contacted ASUS technical support and explained everything, more than an hour on that annoying, sarcastic and slow chat (with the guy on the other side clearly trying to blame the GPU, my TV, HDMI, RAM, the Pope, etc), and again another RMA. Reading other reviews here at Amazon, I see some reports on manufacturing quality problems (bent pins, connexions, etc). Two RMAs in such a short time is not acceptable for a brand like ASUS, and this MB will be my last ASUS product since quality control is not important for you guys. What I really want is my money back now. I should have picked another brand.

La verdad es que montar todos los componentes incluyendo el disipador fue de lo mas sencillo, esta muy bien hecha y el diseño esta increible, ahora si pasando a la parte del desempeño solo puedo decir que esta a otro nivel, definitivamente se las recomiendo, tendrian que probarla para saber a lo que me refiero, no duden en adquirirla, no se van ha arrepentir :D

前のマザーボードが壊れて画面に何も出力されなくなりまして、このマザーボードに変えたら出力出来るようになりました。ありがとうございます。問題なく使えています。緊急時はWi-Fiにも繋げられるので便利ですね。

Good motherboard with detailed manual and very good BIOS Looks nice But anyone buying this should ideally visit the official support page and check the product vendor guide (that will tell you what all cpu and ram were tested with the motherboard)

This MB is a beast! and a tough on at that! First time build here and am proud as can be this thing runs smooth and no issues what so ever! Came in good time, all the parts/swag was in the box...it wasn't in a sealed box or a sealed bag which freaked me out at first until I looked online and found out they don't seal their hardware because sometimes they update the bios before shipping. I didn't have to do any updating to get windows to work it was plug and play in that regard. I also installed 2 M2 drives on the board and the was super easy to configure them in RAID0. I would stay clear of the ai suite as the board is superior as far as fan set up and there are far better options for updating the bios and at the end...it is like a virus to try to get rid of :/ I recommend this product and will always buy Asus Mobos!

Perfect motherboard I don’t know what to say. -Well presented -Easy to install -Good price -Useful instructions (that’s rare) -Beautiful look -Well built
