Idk what's going on, but YT won't let me comment on the video...
@@x8jason8x I've seen the last two comments and now I see they are gone.. let me see if they were flagged for some reason.
Ok I just checked held comments. You have a lot of comments held for review for some reason. I just approved them all. However, the two comments you left on this video were not held for review. CZcams simply ate them.@@x8jason8x
@@ErockOnTech Man... I don't know what's up with YT these days... lol
@@x8jason8xlol me neither man.
This is seriously one of the best Erock videos I have watched in a while. I was engaged the whole time. Love the features of this board! Can’t wait to upgrade my pc and get some of these for sure
Thank you man! I really appreciate it!
Got the ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI a couple months back. Running it with a 14700k, 32GB 6000Mhz and 3080ti.
Boards solid as.. Never under stood paying top dollar for boards.
Even back when i'd run flagship GPUs in SLI and 3090k or 2600k with mid range boards always ran fine. Came from a 9900k and mid range board and they never miss a beat.
High end boards have a load of shit I just don't need.
Having currently own an ASUS Z690-A D4, I see a lot of these features that I really appreciate (especially the GPU release, access to lower m.2 drives) that are now more accessible to what I think of as a mainstream product. It really feels like ASUS is stepping forward with things that should really be standardized amongst more boards. Still wish we could all get a LCD readout instead of debug lights even at this tier and higher but this is a step in the right direction.
I agree 100%! I would love to see a LCD readout on all boards. But I also understand that probably adds additional costs.
Great video mate!
Thank you 🙏
Great video Erock. Good stuff
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Thanks for the video! I'm building a new rig for the first time in 6 years and there was some helpful info for someone like me, that only builds a PC once every 5-6 years. Ram and GPU arrive tomorrow, cant wait to try it out.
Hey I’m happy to hear it was helpful! Thank you for letting me know! Best of luck on your new PC! Happy gaming!
quick question. do we plug the tkg cable into the aio pump?
Great product review. MB seems like a good value for any level of pc enthusiasts
Thank you. I appreciate it!
Being sent free products is hardly any different to being sponsored. If you give a negative review, you no longer receive free products. Objectivity is objectively lost.
So what’s your suggestion? Don’t take any products from any companies ever?
@@ErockOnTech No, I don't see it as a problem as it allows more reviews, but the catch is that it cannot be completely objective, that is human nature, no actual fault of your own. Your statement about it not being a paid advert may be correct, but very few youtube channels can legitimately claim objectivity.
@@Skobeloff...Well I did have some gripes about it in the final thoughts section. I do legitimately think the board is decent and Asus has done a great job offering innovative solutions for PC building and PC maintenance. I love the GPU Q release button and the Dimm detect feature. That is 100% my genuine thoughts. But I don’t like how there is no bios flashback. However, I completely hear what you’re saying.
@@ErockOnTech A lot of things should be standard on mobo's by now, the quick release should be obvious, as well as bios flashback, and debug readouts. Multiple usb-c front panel headers should also be common, and cases should reflect that. I am also surprised that we are only just starting to see motherboards with rear connectors.
I am not personally doubting your own credibility, but going out of your way to suggest the review is objective because you were given the product by the manufacturer, doesn't really add up.
@@Skobeloff...It’s what many other reviewers do. If I received money, then I am obligated to disclose it. But if I didn’t receive money and I give a favorable review, then it may come across as sponsored. Then I would get comments such as “This is a sponsored video. Asus paid him to say this. He is a fanboy.”
Also, I agree that many features should just be standard on all motherboards. That’s why I titled the video this way. I like the features this board offers. And I want to see these features, and more, as standard on all boards.
Hello,how do i record games in HDR mode but keep the viewing experience the same for SDR viewers? does youtube automatically re-colors HDR videos for those that dont have hdr enabled?
Oh wow that is a can of worms there. I’m not exactly sure what CZcams does. Obviously, the viewer needs a HDR monitor to view HDR content. If they don’t have it, then I imagine it would be presented in SDR. As for recording HDR, you need a capture card that can record in HDR. Asus offers these capture cards.
Good video i have a Asus Z690 prime wifi with a i9 12900ks in it great motherboard.
Thank you! And that’s awesome to hear!
let me tell you brother before watching your review. i bought the i7 12700 non k + Asus tuf z690 plus wifi d4 combo at the cost of of single i9 12900k during launch in jan 2022 . Its been 2 years and its working fine. this board rank 1 in best performance to price ratio
That’s amazing! Then you’ll likely love this board as well!
@@ErockOnTech they have added the gpu button which was earlier available in strix, makes it almost a perfect board. beyond this board one is just wasting dollars
Is anything you mention Windoze only?
Are you a Linux user? Anything I mentioned about the hardware is on the motherboard itself. It will work regardless of your OS. Anything in the bios, like shortcut keys, will work regardless of your OS as well. However, anything I mentioned in the armory crate app is likely windows only. To my knowledge, armory crate is not available on Linux.
Thanx. Yes Linux mint. Is there an AM4 or AM5 equivalent mobo?
@@skipguenter3711Yes. The closest for AM5 is ASUS TUF Gaming X670E-PLUS WiF. It’s the same price. But it doesn’t have the GPU release button.
Do you use Intel now for your privat rig?
Yes but I’m about to switch back. I’ve been on intel now for a few months. But it hasn’t been flawless.
This has a lot of great features. I don't think it would be for me though. After using a MSI MEG, if my motherboard doesn't have an 9 segment LED BIOS readout and physical power and reset buttons on the motherboard, it would be hard to choose it.
Haha yeah I get it. But those are different classes of motherboards altogether. But yeah I prefer higher end as well.
dos this board have bluetooth?
#ErockOnTech - If you have a moment: - Should we buy an Nvidia RTX 4070 Super while we can? Or should we wait for a better graphics card in two to three years? - Just based on this question; no other details, I'd appreciate your opinion, if you have a second. - And THANK YOU for the wonderful vids. -
Thank you for the kind words! It depends on what GPU you currently have. The 4070 Super is a decent GPU. But it really depends on your GPU situation currently. New Nvidia GPUs are expected to launch early 2025.
@@ErockOnTech Ah. I had heard that Nvidia was exiting the Video card market very soon, due to their A.I. investments. - Any truth to this statement? - (I have an i7 - 8700 from 5 years ago, and the RTX 2070 Super from then as well.)
@@j.a.velarde5901No. That’s not true. At least not now anyway. The 50 series is coming soon.
@@ErockOnTech Thanks for continuing the conversation. - So, in conclusion, based on my graphics card, do you suggest that computer gamers like me, with a 5yr old graphics card, purchase something new now? Or wait for something else?
@@j.a.velarde5901It just depends. Are you able to play your current games at a frame rate you’re happy with? If not, then definitely upgrade. I would probably upgrade personally now.
All motherboards should have as a standard:
* #1 Dual BIOS
* 6 USB ports
* WIFI adapter which gets used for blutooth as well
* POST code LED
Dual BIOS is a _standard_ *not* as feature.
Not a bad list. I definitely agree that all motherboards should have post code LEDs and Bluetooth and wifi built. The number of usb ports seems a bit arbitrary. Why 6 specifically? I’ve never needed a dual bios personally. What would you use the second bios for
@@ErockOnTech For when updating BIOS if the install goes bad or you lose power.
With only 1 your board is bricked. With 2 you can get back into the BIOS reset the first one and try again.
@@andrewvirtue5048That’s what BIOs flashback is for. Sadly, this board lacks that.
I bought the Tuf X670E and because it has no quick GPU release I had to use my finger in the very tight place between my SSD heat sink and GPU to press the latch down, the latch completely shattered as well as part of the arms that hold the latch, so I could not just simply replace the latch.
ASUS claimed it was a human error and charged me to replace the entire PCIE slot for my GPU, that plastic on the slot is very unforgiving and will shatter sometimes from just regular use like me, and know that ASUS will not help you here so be very careful when uninstalling a GPU guys,
I’m sorry to hear that! And I thought that board had a GPU Q release. Very interesting.. hmm 🤔
@@ErockOnTech does it?! I would love to be wrong, but I did not see one (it’s currently getting repaired so I can’t check)
Edit: internet says q release function is not on the AMD Tuf motherboards, bummer
@@George-um2vcI did not know that. Wow. Interesting. Thank you for this information.
I'd rather have a cheaper board without wifi. Why do you even need wifi on a desktop when wired network is much better (much cheaper, more reliable, actually reaches the claimed speeds) and it's not like you're going to be moving the computer during use.
and still no 8 segment display
Do you mean the lcd display? Yeah sadly, you’re not getting that on lower end boards. I wish. Trust me I wish.
It’s a pass. I always have to buy motherboards with thunderbolt support. Unless you can find a compatible thunderbolt card to go with it.
This does have a thunderbolt header. I said that in the video.
ASUS motherboards are full of SHIT now. I was a loyal customer of Asus from last 25 years. But now i have left this SHIT AND GREEDY company. Their cpu socket pins, usb socket pins, etc etc bend very easily and too much expensive motherboard, gone to bin. Even if it is in warranty, ASUS dont care about it. Ask all the customers about their experiences. So, i will never go back to Asus for sure. My all systems are and will be definitely, of either Gigabyte or MSI. They have really used awesome quality of material in every product. Hats off to you GIGABYTE and MSI.
I’m just curious. What bad customer service experience have you personally experienced? What happened? Asus will read these comments. This is a good opportunity to have a wrong corrected if possible.
It's not *have ran* , it's *have run* . Don't schools teach English anymore?
I just bought the asus tuf x670e. Damn good mobo for $280.
Yes it is!
