It's a good motherboard, however ASUS needs to look at the wifi driver. Lucky for me someone else was able to research and find the right driver, it's realtek not mediatek!

It seems to be a rock solid board, I did try a Asrock 450 and was surprised by it's lack of audio processing, where every Asus board I've bought has Never had cheap audio, the Asus audio is full fidelity and much appreciated. This board makes use of the fastest NVME technology PCIe 4.0 so the Samsung 990 is smoking at 7100btps read and 6800 writes.

Easy installation and works great. Only issue was I had to connect my old wireless card so the motherboard could add in the new wireless card that comes on the motherboard. Otherwise, flawless.
