I have used ASUS motherboards for my last 4 builds. I previously had tried other brands but I found ASUS to be consistent so I have stuck with the brand. In previous boards I have tried the Strix and ROG boards and they were solid. I know the TUF is not of the same quality as a ROG, but the TUF has more slots exposed than the ROG. More importantly, all of the ASUS motherboards above the TUF now have just an optical audio connector. I still have a nice speaker system that uses the 3 connectors for left, right and subwoofer so the TUF was the board that I had to get or I would have to buy a new sound system. It is a nice looking board and has ARGB lighting on the back side of the board giving it an interesting shadow in the case. I will say that while I like almost everything about ASUS boards, the one thing that I really do not like is the Armoury Crate software that is used to manage the lighting. I use Eset and it flagged the Armoury software as having malware and blocked the installation. After some research online I found that indeed others had found that the software was questionable. All of the other drivers were clean. I also bought a Corsair commander for managing ARGB lighting. It could not manage the motherboard without the Armoury Crate drivers. But fortunately, I found a posting where someone had found that the Aurora DLLs for version 1 could be used to control the ARGB of the motherboard and allow the Corsair commander to manage everything. I didn't install the Aurora package. Rather, I followed the instructions to reference the DLLs and got everything working without installing the ASUS malware. While the ASUS hardware is solid, I wish ASUS would provide a clean set of tools and software that doesn't try to phone home or force me into their marketing/monitoring. Hence I took off a star.

Review for ASUS Tuf Gaming Z890 Plus WiFi board. Purchased Mar 26, 2025. DO NOT buy this unless you have parts that all have Microsoft signed drivers!!!! There is no way to change the BIOS to accept Legacy peripherals using the CSM. I updated the BIOS and ME files to version 1805 released March 25, 2025 - still no CSM page to edit in the BIOS. MOBO would succesfuly enumerate all of my Samsung 850 EVO 250GB drives and an older Blu-Ray optical drive and 64GB of MOBO RAM and the Intel Core Ultra 7 265K CPU. On the same BIOS main page, there were no drives listed in the boot order list. Pressing F8 generated a message " No bootable devices were found" . One of my hard drives has Windows 10 on it and it worked perfectly on the old MOBO. Talked to 2 ASUS folks on different occasions and after failing to help me they both recommended I return the MOBO. ASUS seriously screwed up the BIOS for the whole series of Z890 motherboards if they removed the ability to access the CSM mode to allow access to legacy peripherals. They need to fix it! Read more

Espérant un démarrage Out of the box sans trop de tracas. Révision avis 8 mois plus tard. Tout fonctionne pour moi. Je peux me tromper mais je pense que l’ implémentation des correctifs sur ce nouveau socket fut long a mettre en oeuvre. Plusieurs facteurs, composants et fabricants étant en cause il est difficile et perturbant de naviguer a l’ aveugle quand ca fonctionne pas. Ont ce sens un peu laissé, floué dans un contexte géopolitique mondial tendu et instable. En résumé : ca fonctionnait pas au début, ca fonctionne bien maintenant, je suis pas convaincu pour les prochains mois, année. L’ informatique custom étant ce qu’ elle est aussi Read more
