ASUS ROG Strix Z890-E Gaming WiFi Intel Z890 ATX Motherboard with AI, 7X M.2, WiFi 7

I've owned many MB's... Mostly stuck with Asus, and this one is by far the best one of all the builds I've done. All the bells and whistles...setup was a breeze... And so easy to update. Glad I splurged and spent the extra money on this board.

My z890 gaming e died on me after 3 months, maybe I got a bad unit? I loved the features and ascetics of the board but I would recommend going with other options.

Fantastic. Easy to install. Lots of heat sinks. Potential for future upgrades.

ROG STRIX Z890-E Gaming WIFI Motherboard is the latest in a great line of motherboards, but it leaves you flat when you are looking for PCI-e slots for peripherals - only has 2. One is PCI-e 5.0 x 16, and the other is PCI-e 4.0x16, leaving you to figure out how to add anything else outside of the NVME SDDs they give you 7 slots for. 3 for 5.0 x 4, and 4 for 4.0 x 4 NVME SDDs. The problem here is 2 of the 5.0 slots are sharing resources with the PCI-e 5.0 x 16 meant for a high-end video card, so you end up having to throttle back your video to use the latest SDDs or use a lesser set of SDDs on the other 4 slots. I should have read the fine print before purchasing this one, but I have it now, and outside of throttling my new video card, it is a nice motherboard. It has the latest Wi-Fi 7 standard, and has ample room for DDR-5 RAM, but you really have to pay attention to the manufacturer, type and speed of the RAM before you plunk down some cash on this. It states up to 256 Gigabytes of RAM, but the QVL list only has a few options at the 96 Gigabyte level. One with Corsair with 4- 24 Gigabyte sticks, and the rest require one or two slots only. Yes there are plenty of vendors and RAM speeds available in the QVL list, but when you look for an option, there are few available to be purchased. I went with 2 G Skill sticks of 48 Gigabyte RAM at 6400 MT/s, thinking that maybe they will add this particular set for upgrading in a later BIOS update to allow me to up the ante to 192 Gigabytes by filling the other 2 slots left on the motherboard. With AI being the main reason for getting this latest iteration with an Intel i-9 Ultra (2nd Gen) 65 Watt CPU, I also had to pay attention to what RAM can be used with this CPU, a first for me to have to worry about, and I am sure any of you amateur computer builders out there like me will read the fine print on that one. So, no I could not get the highest speed RAM, nor is the new STRIX Z890-E able to actually use 256 Gigabytes of RAM based on the limitations set by both their own BIOS limitations as well as the latest Intel CPUs when comparison shopping for compatible RAM. All in all, it is a pretty good motherboard barring all the limitations noted above. Maybe a ROG Hero would be a better option?

Works perfectly and easy to use and came packaged perfectly with everything you need

This motherboard is packed with features: PCIe Gen 5 support, fast DDR5 compatibility, and rock-solid build quality. The BIOS is user-friendly, and connectivity is excellent with WiFi 7 and multiple USB ports. Perfect for overclockers and gamers looking for stability and high performance.

Solid board packed full of features. Very happy with my purchase

Great motherboard. Lots of features and easy to install.

Z890 is a premium board with top-tier features, excellent build quality, and eye-catching design, the ASUS ROG Strix Z890-E is an excellent choice. Whether for high-end gaming, overclocking, or future-proofing your rig, this board delivers.

Motherboard is fast. Was easy to set up, I'd always stick with asus as I found the quality of their electronics is top tier.

Upgraded from Strix z370 e-gaming. The motherboard is of excellent quality as expected from Asus. I have an Intel core ultra 265K with G.Skill 6800 O.C memory and it is completely stable. The motherboard has tons of features and all the overclocking and tweaking options ever needed in the BIOS, improved aesthetics from my previous build. It has ample USB and M2 ports and I like that it has an HDMI and DisplayPort connection along with 2 thunderbolt 4s. With support for the latest technologies like DDR5, Wi-Fi 7, Thunderbolt™ 4 and an advanced cooling system, this board will give you maximum performance and stability. If you’re building your first p.c or upgrading an existing one, Strix Z890-E gaming will meet all your needs. Highly recommend this board for stability, features, reliability and aesthetics.

This motherboard demonstrates exceptional speed and efficiency, making it a highly desirable component. Based on my experience, this board is well-suited for single-PC streaming and 3D design applications. When paired with an Intel Ultra 7 processor, it represents a sound investment. While the AI overclocking feature presented some initial challenges, particularly with gaming and streaming performance, the overall efficiency surpasses that of my previous Z790 motherboard. Despite this minor issue, I highly recommend this motherboard. For those considering an Intel processor, the price-to-performance ratio makes it a worthwhile purchase. Please note that compatibility is limited to (Gen 2) Ultra processors; Gen 1 processors may not be supported.

Awesome motherboard that I can count on. Running perfectly

This motherboard is highly recommended, it is nice, functional, and has more connections than anyone would need.

Great board so far. Good stability and performance w/ nice aesthetics.

Once again ASUS hits a homerun with there motherboard. It stands out in quality

I have been using Asus products since 2004, My first pre-built PC was an Hp Pavilion with a Asus motherboard with an SIS-Intel chipset. I did my research on Asus and found nothing but good things about their products. All the PC's I personally built for myself after that had Asus motherboards. I have had a Asus P5B, a Asus X58 Sabertooth, a Asus ROG Rampage III, a Asus P6T, a Asus P6X58D, a Asus X99-A a Asus ROG STRIX Z590-E and now a Asus ROG STRIX Z890-E. As you can see I have had multiple Asus boards and I have built many PC's for customers that used Asus motherboards. I will use them until I can;t use a PC anymore. I love their quality and features.

Motherboard does everything you could ever need. My 3rd one, Z590, Z790, Z890. Top quality, extensive consistent bios.

Very easy install and setup. (Update BIOS immediately) Running very stable with Intel Ultra 9 Processor 285, 96gb 6800 ram (XMP II) and ASUS TUF 4090.

It has been great so far. The fact it has seven onboard M.2 slots is wild!
