This board has the best DRMs at this price point, runs cooler than even the Aorus Elite during full workload, and can easily handle the 3900X and lots of fast RAM. Most people have no need for 2.5 GbE ethernet for example. Solid features don't mean all the bells and whistles you'd personally like to have. Maybe you're comparing to X470 or lower boards' specs. Where do you see another X570 chipset motherboard that has your list of "should haves" at this price point? Nowhere, that's where. It's $200 in the US and that's where this site calls home. For $240 it should have USB 3.1 header, ALC1220-VB audio, two ethernet adapters 1 GbE + 2.5 GbE, BIOS Flashback, built-in I/O panel shield and many more features. At the bottom of the page, we find Q-Fan configuration and is where to adjust fan speeds and profiles at the BIOS level.
Inside the Monitoring section, we find information on the CPU temperatures (package and core) and motherboard temperature as well as fan speeds and voltages for the CPU and the major rails from the power supply. Inside of this section is where users can change PBO, voltages, and the DDR/Infinity fabric frequency and timings as well. Both the Gigabyte X570 BIOS and the Asus BIOS had the same section and the same disclaimer about doing damage to the PC, making me wonder if this is something AMD had board partners add in the BIOS. Also within this section is the redundant part of Ai Tweaker with AMD Overclocking.
The Advanced heading is where we find CPU, SATA, Onboard device, USB, and NVMe configuration options. Inside this section are sub-headings for Precision Boost Overdrive, DRAM Timing control, as well as Digi+ VRM for managing power and load line calibration functions. Within the section, the main page gives easy access to the CPU and BCLK ratios along with the major voltage options used in overclocking. While there is a bit of redundancy on some items throughout the BIOS, Asus does a good job of putting the more commonly used options in one place. Additionally, this is where users are able to set the system language, date and time.Īi Tweaker is where the fun starts and the overclocking options are found. The Main section is informational for the most part, displaying details about the BIOS and CPU.
Many, especially overclockers who tend to manipulate the most options, will populate this area with the most frequently used options in the BIOS so the most common functions are on one screen. By default, it comes populated with memory frequency, voltage options, SATA and Onboard device configuration as well as boot options. My Favorites section is a place where you can customize what’s on the page with your own options. The headings are My Favorites, Main, Ai Tweaker, Advanced, Monitor, Boot, Tool, and Exit. In Advanced mode, we’re greeted by the familiar setup of headings across the top, along with some monitoring on the right side.
