Review Summary
2024-04-28T20:00:00
I've recently completed installing this Motherboard and all the components, bells and whistles, you name it and it's even included somewhere inside the case. I was almost daunted by the amount of wiring and cables needed to get everything wired/plugged in for operation, amazing how it all gelled together and became one wonderous, RGB stacked and loaded PC. I have it maxed out as far as I can at present with no obvious issues of power failures/shortages. This is one mean motherboard as far as the abundance of features and tech built into the MB, but it is a Beast when at Zone 5 afterburner or Military Cruse Zones and mine hasn't slowed down since hitting the initial 1st time around operational test and evaluation mode performed. I am quite delighted and super pleased with this Z790-P motherboard that I'm rating it far higher than the above Excellent rating; I give it Supreme Excellence above all others. I encourage all to check into purchasing this Motherboard and enjoy a top end superior MB offered by ASUS. All the warranty, software, BIOS, all that is cutting edge and the Service is quite stellar in itself.

The Prime is a great series and last year's model (790 which i have) is even better than the 690. Guess the 890's are coming out soon - alas, a little behind on the website. i know how that is. i think the board details are taken care of ... i have built using only ASUS since ~2000, used their laptops and routers. Maybe it is the caps?
