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.

Prime Z790-P WiFi D4 in it's own class

I purchased this Motherboard about 3 weeks ago and it has performed superbly. It was easy to install in my new computer and has exceeded my expectations.

This motherboard is a great board.

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?

I would write a review for the Z790-P wifi if

I bought this in March 2024 and so far no issues and I over locked it. Love it no issues so far. a+++

Great motherboard for my first build.

Installed a month ago...excellent, fast response, used for extreme photoshop editing. manipulation, compositing

Superb

Just completed my new build and everything went great. Uses DDR4 Memory which is much cheaper. Has all the latest connections, and room for 4ea M2 Drives. I have 3ea 980 PRO's Raided.
