ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Hero (WiFi 6E) LGA 1700(Intel®13th&12th Gen) ATX Gaming Motherboard(PCIe 5.0,DDR5,20+1power Stages,2.5Gb LAN, Bluetooth V5.2,2X Thunderbolt 4 Ports,5xM.2, Thunderbolt™ 4/USB4)

I upgraded my PC from a Z590 Hero to this Z790 Hero, and I couldnt be more pleased... except for the lack of broad DDR 5 memory support. I tried a 4-stick 128GB Kingston DDR 5 Kit that was supposedly supported but found it very unstable. I fell back to a 2-stick 64GB Corsair kit that has been rock-solid.

Have had this board in my rig for a few months now running a 13900k with 128GB of DDR5 Dominator 5600 RAM and a 3080Ti (I know, graphics cards arent cheap nor in ample supply). For the first few weeks I didnt have many issues only for the occasional BSOD. Updated the BIOS the first time and then my system became even more unstable. Updated to the latest 813 BIOS and I wasnt able to go 5 minutes without a BSOD. I first thought maybe it was windows 11 not liking something so I downgraded to win 10 and even had added an extra NVME drive to install Ubuntu. Both crashed as well. So I went searching the web and found a forum that hinted at the issue of this board not being stable with 128 GB of RAM. So I tested it and took the a1 and b1 sticks off the board. Not a single crash since. I hope they fix this soon.

This board cant support 128 Gb RAM .I used 4 of 32GB 6000 MHZ , shows error 55

First motherboard where I cant put the memory on XMP and forget about it. The memory is unstable on XMP. I tried adding the timings in manually and that didnt work either. Great board if youre an advanced over clocker, but Im not. Yes the newest bios is in. I think its 8.13

This POS motherboard destroyed 2 sets of ram I purchased and another set of ram i borrowed from a friend. there was some serious voltage instability. i was able to get it running after limiting my ddr5 ram to 4800 from the 5600 i borrowed. but just today it became unstable again. however it will still pass memtest86 now so it is 100% a MB issue. ASUS has gaslit me over the past month and i will never purchase another MB from them again. its just not worth the trouble.

Es una motherboard de mucha calidad! Su instalación fue sencilla, los tips que puedo darles es al momento de instalarla tengan listo ya en un usb la última actualización de la bios que la pueden obtener de la página y también las actualizaciones del wifi y lan cuando instalen windows y con eso no tendrán problemas, excelente motherboard !!!

great board overall but Im having issues with the onboard usbs mine are failing and ASUS has no inventory for advance RMA. Ive been on hold with Asurion for about 30 minutes at this point trying for a viable solution. I will say overall ASUS is a great MB provider. Asurion warranty Ill have to update on later.

Excelente producto, hasta ahorita funciona perfectamente.

Once installed works amazing, but the manual and instructions are not intuitive at all. Was unable to get the computer to post to find out that every power connector needs to be plugged into the motherboard from the psu, however this is not mentioned anywhere in the manual. Once that was figured out, the motherboard has been performing excellent.

I just built a new rig with an intel raptor with Corsair Dominator 128 gigs of 5600, an Evga supernova 1600 watts PSU, and it blue-screen-of-death when I overclock to xmp1/2. All drivers are up to date and firmware. I remember why I left Asus for Gigabytes.
