Got this as a Christmas gift from my son, he is a hardcore gamer and knew I wanted something fast and powerful enough for me to run fight simulator. He did his research and decided on this model. Built the system on Boxing Day without issues and am now able to run any demanding sim without any problems. Very happy with my gift and strongly recommend this product.

This review is given to receive a warranty extension from ASUS for your feedback. As a computer tech, I have to say how please I am with this product. It was very easy to install. The instructions are so clear and pictures great, that even a beginner can install this no problem. Fit perfect and was able to easily connect all connectors in no time.

I wanted to upgrade from i7 4770K and ROG Hero VI. So decided to go with this board and DDR5 Ram. TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI DDR5. Used a i7 13700kf and DDR5 6000. No lag in the OS and easy setup. Paired it with 3070 ti and Samsung NVme drives. Super stable and fast.

This motherboard gives you so many different configurations options that any level of builders would love! Together with my son and I we built our first computer ever with this motherboard and so far it has been great. Would definitely get another Asus motherboard for my next build.

I knew nothing about motherboards as I was building my first PC. After purchasing the board, the instal was pretty straight forward. It works as I wanted it to. Now I just need to play more games.

Needed bios update for lga 1700 13600 series cpu. free update, very fast turn around time less than 2 weeks.

Very easy to work with and excellent build quality. Plenty of extension options including 4 m2 slots and 6 fan headers. Bulit-in rgb headers (both 12v and 5v!) Armoury Crate can be used to download all the needed drivers. Only problem I had was not with the board itself but the manual. One of the m4 slot is supposed to support both sata and nvme, but the manual has conflicting information (one place says the 2nd slot and the other says 4th slot). Hope it can get fixed.

I brought this mother about last month on at Black Friday deal. I choose to buy this motherboard for the first piece of my building list. when It alive it look a lot better than I was expecting. For someone like me, who didn't like to have a lot of the RGB light. love the WIFI antenna.

TUF Gaming Alliance
Build with Confidence
TUF GAMING Alliance is a collaboration between ASUS and trusted PC component brands to ensure compatibility across a wide range of parts, such as PC cases, power supplies, CPU coolers, memory kits and more. With new partnerships and components being added regularly, the TUF Gaming Alliance will continue to grow even stronger.
TUF Protection
SafeSlot & SafeDIMM
PCIe 5.0 is 2x faster than PCIe 4.0, so we adapted our SMT manufacturing process for the faster SafeSlot, to ensure the highest data speeds. SafeSlot is a reinforced metal sheath added to a PCIe slot to keep a card firmly installed. Meanwhile, strong ASUS SafeDIMM sheathes support and protect memory modules on select ASUS motherboards, empowering you to insert your modules with speed, accuracy and confidence.
ESD Guards
ESD Guards prolong the life of components while preventing damage from electrostatic discharge, providing protection for up to +/- 10 kV of air discharge and +/- 6 kV of contact discharge - greatly surpassing the respective industry standards of +/- 6 kV and +/- 4 kV. Surface-mounted TVS diodes in a dual in-line package help protect your PC from voltage spikes.
TUF LANGuard
TUF LANGuard is a military-grade innovation that integrates advanced signal-coupling technology and premium surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput, protecting the motherboard from lightning strikes and static electricity.
DRAM Overvoltage Protection
Onboard resettable fuses prevent overcurrent and short-circuit damage. This extends beyond I/O ports to DRAM to safeguard the lifespan of your system and connected devices.
Stainless Steel Back I/O Panel
TUF GAMING motherboards have a corrosion-resistant stainless steel back I/O panel bonded with chromium oxide to provide a lifespan that's three times longer than traditional panels. With this protective feature, TUF GAMING motherboards passed 72-hour salt fog testing, while other brands only passed 24-hour testing.
Immersive Gaming
TUF GAMING Z690 motherboards provide a high-performance gaming package with a long list of features to improve your experiences, including ultrafast networking for smoother online gameplay, pristine audio with positional cues for FPS gaming, and onboard RGB lighting that syncs with attached accessories to help you create a personalized gaming atmosphere.
Networking
Intel WiFi 6
The Intel WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 2.4 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6. The WiFi antenna designs with four-way positioning that enables better signal reception, and a magnetic base to secure the antenna on the top or side of the PC case.
Intel 2.5 Gb Ethernet
Onboard 2.5 Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost with speeds that are up to 2.5x faster than standard Ethernet connections. This translates to incredibly fast file transfers, low-lag online gaming, and high-res video streaming.
Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation
This powerful ASUS-exclusive utility leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone* and incoming audio while preserving voices. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks and other ambient noises are removed so you can hear and be heard with perfect clarity while gaming or during calls.
