Review: Note: This is an EATX form factor. It is a large MB that requires a large case. As other reviewers have stated, this board stands alone for tweaking...amazing voltage control, great bio, looks stunning as well. This board also has great heat dissipation. There are thick heat spreaders everywhere. It is also very heavy and will support a large GPU and cooler with no problem. They jam pack the box with every thing you could possibly need for this build. This is a high end board for people that have the money, time and expertise. It comes AI OC'd out of the box. You may need to turn of some of the stock settings for a more stable system. One, odd complaint that I have is the lack of internal USB 2.0 connectors. I needed five to finish my rig so I had to purchase an internal expander. Just weird that they give you way more than you need (including a thunderbolt card and a fan extender card) but not a USB expansion card. I read that some people were having an A2 error, I encountered this as well. Clear your Cmos, if the problem persists use a different bios rev. Sometimes a driver can cause this as well. I really have no major complaints with this board and I highly recommend it for high end builds. Oh, one last thing for Asus...I wish that the error code display could change colors. But again, a very minor thing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by E***H on 16 November 2020*

I have to qualify my review as being based on very limited experience with this board, but I was quite impressed with the board overall. I first ordered this king Asus Z490 motherboards but after delivery noticed that there was no ability to utilize on-board integrated graphics from the CPU (which I desire to use). So back it went. I have to say that the board is just amazing based on my hands-on-only. It feels like it is filled with copper or lead! I wish I could have used this board with the 10gbps NIC and Thunderbolt interface, but that will have to wait. I will note that a competitor to this Asus board (there are 3 in the arena) does plumb/inject the display port output to the Thunderport port - I wish Asus had an option for this on this Extreme board. I had to run out to the local blue and yellow store and buy an Asus Strix to allow me to continue with my build. The Strix seems to be one of the best mid-level boards for more users with more needs (better I/O options, overclocking, etc.). I write software and needs lots of striped M.2 performance and some mild but stable OC. If you need/want use integrated graphics (i.e. 10900K) and not discrete video cards, because you want a semi-workstation-level machine for productivity, then the Asus Strix is probably the best all around board to get. No board, from any vendor seems to provide a HDMI/DP video ports, 10gbps NIC port AND Thunderbolt port on the rear I/O panel - this would be great for power users that are not using discrete video cards. Maybe this will appear with Z590+ boards - I hope so.
