The Asus Tuf boards are usually fine mid-range boards without too much extra bling. But yeah X870 ain't cheap. But people should understand that it's just rebadged X670E with the only difference being mandatory USB4.0 support! That is to say this doesn't do anything extra beyond USB 4.0 that an X670E board can do ie it doesn't support newer CPU's, faster RAM or even offer more PCI-e 5.0 lanes! So if you don't need USB 4.0 you can save a bit and get the Asus Tuf X670E-Plus WIFI instead and if you don't need the extra PCI-e 5.0 lanes just get any X670 board and you'll save a lot more! Again, it will support all the same CPU's, same RAM, same GPU performance and same M.2 performance in the top M.2 slot. Average gamer doesn't need the extra PCI-e 5.0 lanes really.
I’m about to be new to the pc gaming world. This is the board I got for my 4080 Super 9800x3d build on the way. I honestly didn’t know if it was a bit too much for a build like that but I wasn’t gunna pay only $50-$100 dollars for a motherboard of that build. Hope I made the right choice. I saw that they had crosshair motherboards for over $700…..good god almighty that’s extremely deep for just a motherboard 😳!!!!
That's a pretty awesome motherboard. I really thought the price was going to be higher with that buildup and the build of the motherboard. Once upon a time I almost bought a $300 MSI Titanium Z170 for no other reason than its aesthetics lol
2 sata ports is just laughable… I returned mine as soon as I opened and noticed I could not add my 3 hard drives, not to mention that you can only have 2 m.2 without capping the PCIE 1 or 2
I bought this MB + 9950X CPU and I kept my rams same Corsair dominator 4x 16gb 6400 but when I overclock rams for some reason my PC freeze and crash etc and I have to reset bios every time I wanna change ram speed again I wonder if it’s the MB can’t handle rams over clocking or what I only can run rams on 4000 speed .
I just did check it , looks like I’m going to run dual supported RAMs instead of the DDR5 ones I pulled from my Intel build , if you have any 2 RAM sticks recommendations will be great too thank you!
I have already bought one and am waiting for it to arrive in the mail when I saw this. Nice video! Makes me even more excited for it to arrive.

Look forward to the review of the b850 version.

The Crosshair board is nice but you’re right. Most people don’t need it and this one will do just fine.
I subbed because my name in Danny and I bought this board. And per usual I bought it and now I’m looking at reviews ❤
buy first check reviews later... i did the same lmao

Nice. Yeh, they are adding more and more to boards these days. It makes the difference between low-end and high-end very drastic.
Question! Do you need to buy a wifi card or is the wifi card built in?
It’s built in
@@DannysTechChannel thank you!

Gotta make sure the ram and speed is listed on the supported section of Asus’ website.

how many fan cant conecting ?
It’s got 4 fan headers
@@DannysTechChannel i think need take this motherboard or wait same model only pro version
I don't understand how anyone could recommend this board when the msi mag x870 tomahawk exists.
Both boards are very similar in specs and price. For me, it would boil down to design and BIOS preference.
@@DannysTechChannelthis boards bios is in hd I believe is quiet exceptional
The comment about stabbing your board while trying to release the gpu is too real. Its either that or accidentally popping the clip out
