Review: awesome motherboard slacking on ddr5 support - this motherboard has everything that you would need on a high end motherboard but my only issue is the price and the support for ddr5, when using 4 sticks of ddr5 it became unstable and thats with default high end corsair platinum ram at 5600mhz ddr5 2x16 didnt work for long before blue screening. the motherboard looks amazing and built well. just the ram issues put me off.
Review: I love this ASUS Motherboard because it is nice to look at, and all the features is new. Kevin

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by E***A on 26 October 2024*

Si, es muy bonita y tiene infinidad de características que necesitas si optas por un procesador de alta gama de Intel. Pero es a la vez no tan necesaria en mi experiencia y tiene varias cosas que amé, y varias que odié. Por ejemplo, amo la personalización dentro de UEFI, amo los heatsinks integrados, la nueva ranura PCIe, los botones para CMOs y los puertos usbc y thunderbolt. Pero odio con todo mi ser los RGB que tiene de ROG y la app de Armoury Crate que no se desinstala con nada. Fuera de eso, es una experiencia premium hacerle unboxing a esta placa, viene con muchos accesorios y demás cosas que hacen que valga la pena. Además como ya mencioné, es una placa de alta gama, nunca puedes fallar con una de estas. Se ve mucho mejor con los RGB apagados, así parece que tiene un espejo.
