I agree that this is way too expensive, but it is, indeed, very interesting what goes into a $1000 board.
Yeah, you get a $300 motherboard with $50 in LEDs and $650 in cables and packaging they spent $20 on.
I wonder whether the overclocking buttons are just increasing the price or whether they're are actually useful. I can't imagine an overclocker using the buttons.
@@jacobsvideochannel5998 usually the important part about overclocking motherboards is the hardware and build quality, it focuses on stuff like high quality power delivery and system stability
You must enjoy using commas, when leaving, comments, for us to read.
@@spankbuda5760 It is, indeed, a language habit, since english uses little to none commas, it can truly be hard for native speakers to read something that someone with other language base wrote.
We wait for 2 years with GPU prices through the roof, then as soon as they come down to a reasonable price, the manufacturers are like... "Heh... those fools paid stupid prices for the video cards for years... Let's see if they'll do it for the rest of the components now!"
True bro, they milking us at this point
Atleast ram and storage is cheap
Copium
@@markojovanovic9651 Only if the memory is DDR4. DDR5 is still at least double in price what DDR4 is. A shame you can't run a computer on just RAM and storage. A budget build is now at least £1000 to £1500(CPU graphics vs GPU).
@Davinia Robbins uhhh no. it's more like $600
Pcie 4.0 SSDs are getting cheaper.
They likely didn't want to push the RAM further out to preserve maximum signal integrity.
The one time I spent more than 400 on a MB it died on me in like 3 months. Since then I like to stay in the 200-300 range and have never had a problem with them when it comes to OCing the CPU and RAM. Though I never go to the extremes either.
@Don tbf I don't think they're gonna spend another 400 for the sake of "sample rate" after an experience like that
nobody should spend more than 100 dollars on a motherboard
200-300? Im no expert on mobos, but i am a gamer, a coder and an engineer, i do a lot with my machine....I've always had everything i need in the 80-150 range. Usually i spend 100-120.
What does that 2x+ you spend give you? Genuinely curious.
@@NoName-to5xl bells and whistles + MORE RGB 🤑🤑🤑🤑
I have gone 3 of these exact Motherboards, I bought from Amazon. My issue was the usb ports at the back were loose and kept disconnecting my devices every time j moved or touched geb cable. Because I was so adamant in owning this board my 4th board was ok.
Put all of those temp probes on the 4090 power connector just to make sure.
Idk. I desperately want to see a new custom waterloop from you, Jay. I just feel like we haven't seen an interesting watercooling build from you in years. The Singularity case had like, 4 pipes and you can only even 2 of them and it looks nearly identical to every other Singularity case which is like, the least J2C thing I can think of.
Am4 is still great value! I bought a returned Asus Crosshair Dark Hero for 220 USD. Most of the value and luxury for 1/4 the price.
Yeah, but for people like me, upgrading every 6 years, really gotta choose carefully. Im gonna skip Nvidia 3000 series. Maybe even 4000.
@@fynkozari9271 Im staying on 3000 series till probably 5000. Everything is too expensive now
Dark Hero for 220 is great value. but it was not launched at that price.
Most, not all.
The Zenith II Extreme was 800€, the ASUS ROG X670E Crosshair Extreme is 1050€, wich is way to expensive compared.
The Zenith II Extreme has 8 Dimm Slots for ram, a way bigger socket and way more PciE Lanes.
So why is the platform with a consumer socket (wich is much smaler so cheaper to manufacture) way way more expensive than a high end platform wich sells less units?
I would say put your main NVME m.2 on the board not the GEN-Z.2 due to it using the CPU PCIe lanes vs chipset lanes. Specifically the left m.2 slot which is the one that uses the 4x lanes AMD AM5 has for m.2 use(the other 4x General purposes CPU PCIe lanes seem to be used for the Intel JHL8540 USB4 controller(yes this does allow Thunderbolt even though it isn't mentioned).
Using the right m.2 slot will cut your main PCIe5 slot to 8x and your second PCIe5 slot to 4x. This is also why the PCIe adapter only has one slot I assume as using it also cuts your main PCIe5 slot to 8x. So 4x for this and 4x second board m.2 slot(right one). AMD AM5 only has 28 PCIe 5 lanes: 16 lanes for PCIe5 slots and 8x General Purpose lanes(4x used here for the primary m.2 and 4x for the USB4/Thunderbolt chip(i think), 4x to link to the chipset. The GEN-Z.m is chipset as far as I know so is not as fast.
The main reason I got this board was for the RAID so I did a lot of benchmarks. It's RAID sucks for SATA HDD. I tried 2 Exos and then 2 IronWolf Pro 18 TB. RAIDxpert 2 drops the RAID on waking from sleep for Windows 11. Did a ton of trouble shooting with no luck. The NVME m.2 RAID is pretty fast though. Even on the chipset slots VS the CPU slots.
2x 2TB Kingston FURY Renegades gen4 in RAID 0 get 14135MB/s(SEQ1M Q8T1) on CPU lanes and 10722MB/s (SEQ1M Q8T1) on the ROG GEN-Z.2 adapter. I did a lot of benchmarks of these and Terramaster D8-332 RAID Thunderbolt enclosure with 8 Seagate Exos 18TB in RAID 0 and 1/0.
Also on the GEN-Z.2 adapter one side is NVME Gen 5 and one is Gen 4. I assume they expect the Gen5 NVME to be hotter hence the pipe only on one side.
I was thinking the same thing and was confused when he said he would put his main M.2 in the GEN-Z.2 slot.
Thanks for this video. Spent last week in the hospital and had a weeks worth of your videos stacked up, and now this unboxing makes for a great Christmas gift. This motherboard is way out of my range but it was still nice to see.
I thought I shot for the moon with my $352 Asus X570 board. I don't think I'll ever spend that much on a motherboard again.
I have the previous gen previous model of this board the Hero VIII am4 x570 and I have nothing but praise for them, they are very very good especially for connectivity and options in the bios the build quality and all
I was building a new PC this month. I was sock, when I'm seeing the price for AM5 motherboard. I have now a ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming WIFI for €340. I'm happy with that.
BACK IN MY DAY . . . . we built computer that sat horizontal. GPU weight is irrelevant in this configuration; just monitor weight.
$1600 in Australia... And the MSI MEG Godlike is $2350...
I know what I got for $500 with my Proart X670e Creator, everything you expect; 4 SATA cables, a wifi antenna, the unified front panel wire adapter, and as a premium item, a small ruler
But I will say, it is an extremely well designed motherboard, if you have a 1 to 2 slot graphics card, you don't even have to remove it to get to all the m.2
I bought this on release day. Love it and hate it at the same time. It's wide enough that it blocked my grommets, so I decided to upgrade my case to accommodate. The PCI-e riser card is pointlessly large, and should half been half height. Beautiful board, but hurt the pocketbook.
A Strong-Bad reference? I'm totally here for that!
Thanks for showing, feels bit like getting for 500 DM a CO processor for the Amiga 500
I bought the Hero version of this board. One of the best boards I have ever owned.
Actually just bought this board yesterday Jan 11th. glad i saw this vid.
My entire self built system was less than this Mobo....I7700k, 32 GB Corsair LP 16 cl, EVGA 1070 SC, Kingston M.2 1tb, Evo 970 SSD and a couple of Hdd's recently added another 16 GB of Ram but overall the system cost less than this Mobo. Still cool to see High End premium tech even though I cannot and will not ever buy it. Merry Christmas to you all.
Please make a video building on this moon. It’s been a minute since we got a spectacular build video jay!
My daily driver/gaming PC in 2022 😎
ASUS ROG Rampage IV Extreme
i7 3930K 3.2gHz (OC to 4.25gHz)
64gb Patriot 1866 DDR3 (quad channel)
ASUS ROG Strix RX580 8gb
ASUS ROG 32" curved monitor @ 1440p
Haven't run into a game that wasn't comfortably playable at high - ultra high settings, including Warzone, Green Hell, Star Citizen, etc
If today's Extreme series is anything like they were a decade ago - $1k is totally worth it
This is why I'm sticking with AM4 and an in socket upgrade for now. (Rog Crosshair VIII Dark Hero with a 5800X3D.) It isn't because of the ram, although I already have a really good Samsung B-die kit.(G Skillz 3600mhz with cl14-14-14-35 timing.)
Mad respect for the Homestar runner reference
The homestar reference had my rollin'
the reason they didnt space it out more is due to trace length (and he knows this had he thought more about it) expensive board is meant to be more then just expensive, meaning top performance, and longer traces, result is worse overclocking for the memory among other things people do with 1000+ hardware.
Always on a 3rd world budget, I game on a B550 motherboard and I considered going to A520 in next build. Not gonna happen because I'd rather wait for a cheap DDR5 version.
I save in features and I know the compromises, but I never save on reliability (which is usually brand related).
feels weird that in 30 years this is going to be worth scraps
This is the board you buy used off someone in 8 months for 250-300 usd, I love buying used parts!
Basically it’s the same tier as a $300 motherboard from about 2 years ago but now it’s $1000
Oh c'mon. Back in late 80's, early 90's when I started building computers, a decent 80286 mobo set you back $945 -- which I promptly staticted out.
and i now proceed to drool over something i'll never afford
Motherboard prices are getting out of hand this year.
i got one on a great open box deal, and my buddy got an even better open box deal on his from microcenter. The board IS weighty. Pairing this with a Ryzen 9 7950X and a 7900 XTX (we both are) and doing hard line tubing in the ThermalTake Level 20 HT Snow. Planning on painting those heat sinks, too, like Declassified Systems does. Mine will be up on an old Nanocube Aquarium pedestal I have.
Give it a break - The sad thing is everything gets outed really fast. Just think the technology in 1 - 2 years may bypass your test motherboard for half the cost. Happy New Year's 2023.
I thought that my tuf x670e-plus was way too expensive. I can't imagine paying anywhere near this much for a mobo.
This board looks sick, I love overkill stuff. Also, I think there's another m.2 slot right underneath the CPU that you missed, so it looks like you can fit 6 m.2 drives, which is just insane. Killer video as usual, Jay; can't wait to see the personal rig update.
And those who put 6 2TB M.2s on the MB will soon replace them with 6 4TB ones. An't money nice to have and even better to spend.
I was watching this and half laughing, I saved up for 6 months so I could get the $2,000 Glacial, you think that one was heavy, man the Glacial will throw out your back LOL. Very happy with it, glad I saved up since it water cools everthing with one set of fittings.
The last ROG Extreme board I bought was a p67 Maximus IV Extreme, it wasn't exactly cheap but this is nuts.
Consider... back when computing was booting up... $2000 would get you a complete 386 or 486 system... which you can basically get on a single card these days for practically nothing. So this MB costing $1K could be justified quite easily, considering inflation. Just how much you got, how much you want to take your computing up the ladder will determine if you pop for this MB. Overall though, I like Asus products.
I hope you make a build into a case (or even 2 cases, 2 videos?), because what todays high end machine is, it's tomorrows average one, so what is about the case? :)
You missed one m.2 slot on the mb. There is one more under the display thing.
where can i get a mobo that looks this sleek and is just as organized, but without all the crazy overclocking features? $300 would be ideal
Same story for my personal computer... But instead I moved from an 8350 to a r5 3600.
My last at home AMD system was a 1090t back in 2011 so I feel you
Merry Christmas Jay!
im going to buy this as a gift for my boyfriend, he is one of those plug and play types who likes to pawn kids in valorant, i cant wait to see how much more fps he will get with all these RGB's this motherboard got
Prices are getting out of hand...GPU getting way too expensive, but that's because there's only 2 competing. CPU a bit of the same, motherboards just for a little extra you pay loads of money more. Power supplies growing in watt and the price too. Iused to upgrade something every 3-6 months...now it's more like every 2-3 years.
If you buying a motherboard this expensive, you should be installing the top tier AMD CPU that should rock for many years to come. Like build new PC every 4 to maybe a stretch to 5 years. At least that's what I've been doing and see a solid difference in technology etc.
Thanks for the video. I ended getting the Intel Asus Maximus Hero with DDR 57800 to mate to a 13900k. Can't wait to have it up soon.
Thanks for the unboxing and hopefully see some benchmarks soon. Cheers!
now the CROSSHAIR VIII X570 EXTREME now just $500
I do not understand why people believe they are entitled to an xx70/80/90 just because the msrp was a certain number in the past. You are ultimately competing in a limited market with few suppliers but you are equally competing with other people that demand the product.
Happy with my Asus TUF Gaming B550M-PLUS Wi-Fi II that was already expensive enough 😆
I just want round braided sata cables - those flat ones suck so bad when it comes to cable management !!
All this cool stuff would be so much cooler if Armoury Crate didn't suck.
Once you plug that M2 expansion card into the main board your graphics goes from 16x to 8x
My top mobo ever was like $300 I can't really stomach more than that still.
My setup cost was 998.74 usd and it delivers 144fps on modern titles
i feel as though if that board was to say come down to the 400-500 mark it would be a much better value. yes it comes with alot of stuff, yes the board looks high end, but honestly so does the asrock x670e taichi carrara at $520, which is already overkill anyway. I'm doubting very much the x670e extreme crosshair is another 479 better then that board anyway. i kept my purchase when i first signed on on launch day with am5 to a more reasonable which really wasn't very reasonable 1300 out the door. i bought a ryzen 9 7900x, an asrock x670e steel legend, 32 gb of g skill trident z neo ddr5-6000 expo ram kit and a samsung 980 pro 1tb ssd. that honestly wasn't cheap at all. and i did get 20 off the board out the door at microcenter. i get plenty of performance out of my system i feel and i dont feel like im sacrificing ANYTHING really on performance. and yes i absolutely understand the allure of epeen. im running an rtx 3090 ftw3 ultra still almost 2 years after purchase from microcenter when cards where obtusely expensive. im sure asus probably handed you that board jay and i fully understand, if you've got it flaunt it. but even you admit, its kind of ridiculous.
Aye, and I thought Asrock's flagship Taichi motherboard was expensive. Makes it seem like a great deal. Though still pricey for my blood. I'll be sticking the the $300 (CAD) Asrock B650E PG Riptide. The IOs in the back kinda suck, yeah, but the rest is pretty decent and good enough for me.
They need to make mechanical drives that are much faster than Sata and finally retire sata. Lets face it because at this point ssds while cheaper than they once were are still over priced if you want anything above a tb.
they forgot to include PCI-E slots though... only 3 at that price...
Most expensive board I've ever bought was the Gigabyte TRX40 Designaire
Low key hoping you decide to use the lian li v3000 plus
So Jay....you got enough width :P . I think I would be ditching my current case if it couldn't accommodate that bad boy :)
This will pair nice with my XFX RX 7900XTX THIXX Version X graphics card.
For 1k I’d expect some plx chips and more x16 slots.
“We are getting less and less sata connectors these days” dude I have 4 sata connectors and my motherboard is from 2014, but who’s out here using 6 sata drives on a $1000 motherboard though?
If I wouldn't spend $1000 usd on a GPU, I sure as heck wouldn't spend that much on a motherboard.
But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't impressed with what this motherboard was doing, for the most part. That said, I really wish there was something better going on for audio. That sticks out in all the wrong ways for me.
I went with a x670e-plus instead, way better pricing and still 3 m.2's, only downside is only 4 sata's (still have a bunch of ssd's from all the years).
I aint paying 1k for a mobo...
Please tell me I'm not the only one that caught the Strongbad reference.
I am thinking to the same, using AMD, i have never done that. I have a tower that kan use all motherboard, so whatever i get kan be set in that, and i kan use watercool aswell for it. At the moment i have a extended motherboard there from Asus, but an older one.
Anything over $300 for a mobo is outrageous to me!
I didn't think this was an unboxing video. I wished to extract useful information about the board-I already know it’s a grand.
I’m on the fence about buying it. I’m curious whether slotting the m.2 in the 2nd pcie lane will half the bandwidth from 16x down to 8x on the main lane. I suspect it does, in which case this board effectively only has 4 m.2 slots not 5 because no sensible human being will amputate the legs on a $2,000 gpu in order to make use of an m.2 ssd.
the only thing i liked is the USB stick included instead of a CD
Models like this should speak for themselves in sophistication.
Brands that place their name in imposing positions OR the model name in the same (like this one)... generally displease their buyer base. It's the entire point that exclusivity equates to sophistication - not a bogan advertising opportunity.
More stuff you add, more complicated it gets, the more failure points it has.
Imagine not using your M.2 slots for network adapters
Are we sure this isn't a 600$ Motherboard with 400$ of accessories.
If it can do two x16 slots (and not slowing down to x8 when used simultaneously) maybe it's useful?
Edit: nope, it's still x8+x8
you can make an entire PC with that kind of money 💀
If your motherboard covers the basic chipset spec then it does all of what you need and most of what you want. Anything else should be covered by an extra 50-100 dollers. Everything else is absurdly superfluous.
The difficulty I have with these products is that they're pushing pc gaming into luxury territory (and pricing), when there's no need.
Looks just like my z690 extreme that cost 200 dollars.
Wow homestar reference, that’s an oldie! Lmao!
ASUS wants a GRAND for a motherboard? Get the hell out of here!
When that motherboard costs as much as your pc
Probably has " extreme profile" in the bios to😂
I thought 240 was high for my upgraded motherboard. My whole pc cost 1,000 altogether f a 1000 for just one component
All the RGB headers are fine, until you realize it’s not compatible with Corsair iCUE…
Looked at a builder spend 10k building this mod....3.5k on the case alone.
pfft n00b, Athlon 64 was awesome back in the olden days :-P
I told myself I would never pay more than 200 for a motherboard and spent 500 on my X570 Proart ... LoL !!!
Then you get to install Armory Crate and AI suite that will take 25% of you CPU and RAM usage
When you need to put your NVIDIA 4090 founders edition in a motherboard
I'm happy with my $80 motherboard.
If you are using rtx 3090, you still can get at the m.2's on the motherboard with the video card installed. The panel under the video card is a led panel.
I am running this board because I wanted the 10gb cause my home is set up for 10g for my NAS.
I had issues with the first board i got, but it may have been a bios issue. By the time I got a new board, a new bios came out, and it's been fine since.
No free little black cable ties?
Guys I must tell you that this dude back in the days was a good athlete, had a great physical form.
Who knows what happened back then...
i dont like how they are trying to make some pc parts so expensive it will be out of reach except for the really rich. its actually going to eventually get to a point its the same as when you see people in the Lamborghini and you gotta be happy with the corolla because they aimed for the money
