Поделитесь своим опытом и помогите другим сделать правильный выбор
Pros:
-solid construction
-tons of options in bios
-software aka "bloatware" is really handy and I like it
-packaging and accessories are a bonus
-lighting
Cons:
-on board leds are dim
-firmware outdated
-AIO blocks ram (need to re-orient cpu heatsink)
-wifi, i dont need it ( or do I? see below)
-Armoury crate has old drivers (check website)
-The extra fan was installed but no clue how that works ...
Suggestions:
-download the software armoury crate, AI suite 3, ez updater
-Go to the website and download the latest drivers, Armoury crate is outdated
- get the 707 firmware and install it using the AI suite3 custom firmware installer
==> download from the site, run the renamer, copy the renamed file onto a clean usb and plug it into the bios port in the back, then browse from AI suite updater and hit update on the bottom right. PC reboots twice be patient and don't touch anything.
-Install the WIFI antenna, YOU need it for Bluetooth. I didn't and couldn't understand why my Bluetooth has zero distance and figured it uses the Wi-Fi antenna. I don't use WIFI but am hard wired and disabled WIFI in device manager.
-Lights staying on after shutdown ? Go into bios>advanced>APM Config> ERP > enable (S4+S5)
ASUS HAS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE!
This is completely unacceptable. These are currently the most expensive Z490 ITX boards, with the least amount of power stages leading to the hottest VRM in the high end. And to add reliability issues on top of that? They should issue a recall and take all of these boards off the shelf until they figure out what the problem is. I was hoping ASUS would bring back high end small form factor to the Zx90 platforms like they have for AMD's X570 in their ROG Crosshair VIII Impact. Now I'm just happy I didn't spend $400+ on unreliable board that is supposed to be the best.
Got a second one to fix the USB issue, only new change to the system and now the PC will randomally shutdown after 20 minutes, no BSOD. Just a hard freeze, and then shut down.
The board look great and had all the features I wanted let's see how the replacement is.
You are able to set some UEFI settings to non values. Like you can set your vCORE to "Q" if you wanted on the BIOS version I was sent.
The VRM fan NEVER turned on. After I contacted support they literally had no answer. VRM fan curve can not be changed. VRM fan is a gimmick on this board [literally none of them work] check other reviews / forum posts.
The manual explains you can use the PUMP fan headers to control a PWM fan at any value. This is not true. It just runs at 100% all the time. The included manual is misleading.
The wifi drivers included from the UEFI are broken. Wifi drivers from their website are broken. Bluetooth never worked. During install of UEFI the motherboard kept setting PCI_M2_1 as primary boot and install drive [This drive goes thru the PCH and is not directly connected to the CPU] No way to set PCI_M2_0 as primary boot drive easily. I had to unplug my PCI_M2_0 to install windows to the correct drive.
Board was scratched, chipped, and dented in a few places due to sloppy screw installs at the factory. Foam packing for the board was good tho.
The cover for the M.2 drives is a giant pain in the butt if you have a GPU or CPU cooler installed.
Go with any other board. Over clocking was a hassle. One of the worst boards I ever had to deal with. And the "AI fan auto tuning" crap seemingly can not be disabled. And caused my fans to constantly ramp up and down. It made "Vroommm. VRoommm. VRooomm" noises.
Everything considered. I'd rather take a tub with a 12 pack of Amazon basics toasters.
My CPU warranty is void and I'm salty about that.
