This is an amazing motherboard. It has all the features one might need, with nothing superfluous. The design is great, the performance is great but…
Trying to find RAM for this motherboard is hard. I run lots of VMs so I need lots of RAM. I picked two sets of 2x42gb RAM.
The first set, from Crucial, was not on Asus’ QVL so I could get no supports.
Changed the RAM for sets of Corsair, which are on Asus’ QVL, but running above 4200 leads to POST errors.
Trying to get support from Asus is a nightmare where they spend more time trying to find ways not to help than otherwise.
They have, so far, tried everything to find a reason why they would not help, not a single suggestion has been made.
Even curiouser, Corsair told me this set of DDR5 is not supported on their side on AM5 motherboards, although Asus lists it on their QVL!!!
I am able to run the RAM at 4200, quite disappointing since it is rated for 6000. It’s been several days, still waiting for Asus to suggest a single troubleshooting/configuration step.
I will gladly update this review if anything ever gets provided by Asus support (but I’m not holding my breath).
Other issues encountered:
-Armoury Crate crashes when I access the Fan panel, which would be useful to control fan speed…
-Most NVMEs will not fit with the motherbord heat spreader. Since it covers all lower NVMe ports, you will have to do without and, if necessary, use individual heat sinks for each NVMe drive
TLDR: If you want lots of RAM, this is not the motherboard for you. If you run into issues and expect support from the vendor, this is not the brand for you.

This is one of those cases where you pick up a motherboard and just feel good. I’ve had a z68 before and I’ve learned to appreciate how high-end Asus mobos just have your back years down the road. They don’t limit you, they have enough slots and connects for everything. This one just looks and feel solid and, as usual, their users manual is clearly written and has answers about all the tech details eg. about shared PCIe lanes so you know where you need to plug in your SSDs. Also, it allows you to flush new bios without installing a CPU; This will be useful when your CPU is so new that it’s not even supported w/o an update. Anyway, if you want an experience and a good feeling to go along with great functionality, this is definitely your choice.
Now, some issues that you might need to consider:
– The biggest bummer was the lack of hardware POWER button. That means I wasn’t able to just turn on the tentative build on my desk w/o connecting it to the power button inside the case. I had to literally drag my old box, disconnect the power button, and plug it to the motherboard while its laying flat on the table.
– I was a bit worried that there are only 3 PCIe slots, but since it has NVME ports and a built-in WIFI, that saves 2 for me right there.
– One negative is the distance between the first and the second PCIe slots (fits 3-slot card w/o covering the next slot). If you plug in a 3.5-slot 4090, you’ll cover 2 slots and are only left with one that’s not even enabled by default.
I was also slightly bummed about the “ProArt” logo on it (didn’t like the design) and was wondering if I can unscrew it somehow, but then my graphics card just covered it so I didn’t bother.
One other thing that you might bump into: the first thing I tried booting the new build, it would get stuck for a long time (minutes?) with DRAM LED on on the motherboard. I even had time to look up what this LED means and thought my RAM was defective. And then it just booted. Weird. Also, bios update from a usb stick takes a while (10 minutes?) so be patient.
But yea, other than that, great experience so far with this! Looks great, works great, lots of connectors for fans, LEDs, hard drives, everything.

For most cases most of the features will be overkill for any standard buyer. For the price it is its way better and cheaper than other motherboards with a similar feature set. There are a few incompatibilities and i suggest checking the ASUS website to see what will work with it before buying so you can ensure compatibility. Its also beautiful design is also great for themed builds its looking great with my black, copper and wood theme and I’ve been loving the new ASUS Pro Art line and i hope to see more products like this.

I used this board to build a machine with AMD Ryzen 9 7950X CPU, G.Skill Flare X5 64 Gb of 6000 MHz RAM, and KC3000 2Tb SSD to start with. Everything worked out of the box, including CPU and RAM AI overclocking. With a 360 mm AIO, the CPU can boost the cores to 5.85 GHz but I saw all cores compiling a kernel module running at 5.4 GHz. With Linux 22.04, all Ethernet and WiFi modules are recognized and working out of the box.
I chose this to run a two GPU setup; however, that is the only disadvantage of these PCIe Gen 5 board:
The two PCIe Gen 5.0 slots run at 8x in Gen 5 OR also 8x in Gen 4 mode. Despite the fact that the 8x Gen 5 = 16x Gen4 in terms of bandwidth, the GPUs do not get 16x Gen 4 because the bifurcation only splits 16x into two 8x in terms of available physical lines. It does not turn 8x Gen 5 into 16x Gen 4 PCIe slot. Fortunately, for most GPUs, 16x or 8x Gen 4 does not make much difference (1% or so slower for 8x).

Price paid: 405$
Version: Asus x670e proart creator
Where do I start? I wanted to maximize my use case for this board so I had many expectations to fill.
My use case
—————
I currently plan on using this board for linux gaming, steam in home game streaming, full stack development, experimenting with homelabbing, development vms (macos / windows / linux), etc.
Future use cases include: a secondary truenas server running along side desktop use, a full blown server, a handbrake server, 3D game development, etc. etc. etc.
Since I am going to be d!icking around a lot, I didn’t want a motherboard that would limit my creativity (pun not intended)
Motherboard goals:
– VFIO for GPU passthrough to VMs – (development, steam streaming)
– Server instances
– Future homelab server
– Longevity: Plan on using this thing for 10 years
– Ego fullfillment
The Market
————–
From all the research I could gather, my options were: Asus Proart Creator b650, this board, Asrock x670e taichi, MSI Carbon. Focusing on the x670e boards, they all have more or less the same features. Each brand used a small portion of the chipset bandwidth for something else.
– Taichi (~490$): 8 sata ports, 8 usb, 2 thunderbolt, 1 nic (2.5), 2 pcie slots (x16/x0 or x8/x8), optical out, q-code led matrix
– Carbon (~440$): 6 sata ports, 8 usb, NO thunderbolt, 1 nic (2.5), 3 pcie slots (x16/x0/x4 or x8/x8/x4), optical out, q-code led matrix
– Proart (~405$): 4 sata ports, 8 usb, 2 thunderbolt, 2 nic (2.5/10), 3 pcie slots (x16/x0/x2* or x8/x8/x2*), NO optical out, NO q-code led matrix
Of course, there are more nuances, but these were the feature differences that stuck out to me the most. If you want the cheapest VFIO board, get the b650 pro-art. If you want something balls to the walls, the MSI ACE could be a consideration for you. Personally, I did not see a future of emotional fulfillment in either of these boards.
VFIO
——-
IOMMU groupings can be found on the level1tech forums. Passthrough seems to work for some users. However, the groupings on any board aren’t the most atomic. It is the desire of the community for AMD to release an AGESA update that allows for better IOMMU groupings via a bios option. My understanding is this has occurred on last gen (x570) boards. Please take this into account if you are going to do hardcore VFIO stuff. It is not guaranteed that Asus will even support the newer AGESA options, if it even comes out.
Anyways, I originally bought this motherboard in order to allow for two GPUs to be used at the same time. One GPU would be for my linux host, while the other would be given to a windows vm for gaming, card work, development, etc. But I’ll be honest, I haven’t gotten around to setting this feature up. I mainly wanted a windows vm to allow steam game streaming to occur at the same time as I do development work. But, I found a different solution.
I run steam in gamescope on a separate display (TV). This containerizes games so my usage of the desktop doesn’t interfere with someone else streaming a game (if the person streaming uses a controller, not kbm).
My experience with this board
———————————–
So far, everything has mostly run great. I love the quality of the board and aesthetics. The antenna is under-rated too! It looks cool magnetically attached off the back of my hyte y60 case. I haven’t had any issues with drivers on linux (audio, bluetooth, thunderbolt, 2.5gb nic worked great). Also didn’t have any ram issues. Running 6400mhz 2x32gb Teamgroup t-create ram.
Issues I ran into:
– I haven’t actually tested the 10gb nic. Some people claim to have issues with it.
– Couldn’t find the eco mode for my 7900x in the bios. Don’t know if I’m an idiot, or it doesn’t exist.
– No q-code is a joke on this board. I have issues where my gpu will hang the pc on boot. I have no idea why this is happening. My last asus board from 2013 gave a b6 code or something. Why would a mission critical feature like this be missing on a board like this?
– Bios update was looping when I flashed using bios flashback. Kept getting hung updating the thunderbolt firmware. Fixed when I finally unplugged the thunderbolt plug when it did its millionth reboot.
– having 2 more sata ports would have been nice, but the bandwidth is already maxed out.
– Recent Asus controversy was not confidence inspiring.
Conclusion
————–
Everything has been running rock-solid on Manjaro 22.1.3. Wayland is working fine with my 5700xt. Did notice my monitor struggles to sleep/dim. Also, sleep causes a shutdown sometimes when I have certain apps opening. But yeah, considering the software and hardware is cutting edge, I laid a brick with how smooth everything has been running.
Ultimately it has been hard to not recommend this board. Literally everything works out of the box. Didn’t really have any teething issue either. Absolutely ecstatic and hope that this board last 10+ years like my current, but old, Maximus vi gene. For the central core of my PC, I have great piece of mind that future upgrade-ability will not limit me. Are there other boards out there? Sure. But this seems to be the best bang for the buck on the market.

Good all round board with little or no LED crap. The 10G Ethernet is a huge advantage. AURA support for peripherals and memory is all there. Easy to install and get running for experienced builder. The CPU is fast, the I/O is faster, no twiddling of thumbs, medium size files are just there! I initially thought something was wrong, and they were not actually transferring (move/copy/paste), but they went perfectly with MS x-fer or Teracopy. Not as starkly bare-bones as the ASUS TUF boards.
