There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Was building a Ryzen 2700x system & initially ordered the Strix x470-f gaming board. System would not POST and the q-led was showing video error- mostly.. Oddly, a couple times the qled gave a DRAM error instead.
It would not provide the audible beep codes, so I bought a 10 pack of system piezo speakers, to be sure the lack of beeps wasn't a sys spkr issue. Still no beeps. Removed from the case to do "breadboard" testing, confirming the case was not causing a short.
This issue was either the Strix x470-f, or the 2700x processor. The next step was finding my old POST test card which would give me an actual error code to reference- Or returning both items (it's generally standard practice to consider both faulty, unless you do have a 2 digit code to go on).
I couldn't find my POST tester, and while looking for a new one, I discovered that the Crosshair Vii has a 2 digit display that gives you those error codes (plus many other excellent features, including other useful tech tools built on to the board).
I returned the Strix and ordered this Crosshair Vii. Installed processor and it was in fact a dead processor. Ordered a new 2700x and everything is perfect.
Love this Crosshair Vii for many reasons. I love the Ryzen 2700x, and the G.SKILL 32gb RAM (each purchased separately).
Everything works well together.
To end your confusion regarding Ryzen and RAM- the issues were on the previous 1xxx Ryzen processors. The 2xxx Ryzen processors are much less annoying, but they are often not very fond of using more than 2 sticks of ram.
I'm using:
G.Skill Ripjaws V
DDR4-3200 16GBx2 CL16-18-18-38
( F4-3200C16D-32GVK )
Which are actually "intended" for Intel motherboards, but that does NOT matter.
This RAM is not even on the Asus QVL (qualified vendor list), there's almost no 32gb kits on that list.
Just keep that in mind when youre spending hours trying to determine what RAM will work for the system. The list is not the only things you have to choose from, it's merely what they've tested and know to work.
I do recommend this G.Skill kit, as well.
(also, if you go with an M.2 NVME SSD, use the lower slot and move the heatsink to it. You can Google the reason, it's not a functional issue at all, either slot works fine of course, it just splits some lines with the GPU. Apparently has no affect on operation, but at least you'll not be physically hiding it with your GPU, in the event you need to get to it.)
Buy this board. It functions flawlessly for me, has many fan headers, many other capabilities, and simply looks excellent.
Good Luck
So, with that said let's move on. The board is solidly built and the BIOS software seems decently laid out but I'm coming from an older Intel board from Asus so I was pretty familiar with how Asus does their BIOS layout anyway. The lighting features are nice, I was worried about the "Hero" logo being too much but it's actually pretty muted (and I think can be turned off individually in the Aura software). Since I'll be going watercooling I was intrigued by the high current pump header but I've realized nobody seems to actually make a 3-4 pin pump connector that can go on a mobo header, they're all Molex or Molex with a 4pin mobo connector for a PWM feed. So I have to wonder if Asus knows something is coming.
One of the big reasons I went with this board over the Gigabyte Master is USB support. They both support the same overall amount of ports, however the Asus board ALL of the USB ports are USB 3.x where Gigabyte 4 of the rear USB are 2.0 still. My case supports 4x USB 3 ports and a type C port so Gigabyte would have won there due to having two USB 3 front panel headers where the Asus only has 1, however Asus has basically put those on the I/O panel. The Hero has 11 ports plus the rear Type C. The Gigabyte board is 9 plus the Type C but 4 are 2.0. I was initially hesitant since I really wanted to enable all 4 front panel ports, but having things in the rear I/O is just cleaner anyway. Perhaps in the future they'll get rid of USB 2 headers entirely and replace with 3.0
The top M.2 slot is a bit finicky to get to since part of the mounting is under the chipset fan shroud, but that's the one you want to use first as it's directly linked to the CPU. The other slot goes through the X570 chipset first, and disables some SATA ports in the process. It would be nice if there were 3 like the other boards, but there are limited resources and it's always a tradeoff. I suspect that ditching USB 2.0 on the rear panel and having a bunch of 5Gbit/s USB superspeed ports didn't allow for a 3rd M.2 slot.
Other thoughts:
My first board with built in I/O shield. This is very nice, and you can't forget it during install now
M.2 built in heatspreaders with thermal pads is a plus. Some PCI 4 drives come with heatsinks but they're big copper blocks and won't blend in if that matters to you. These would eliminate the need to use them.
Asus still needs to refine the BIOS but it's early days still. They're one of the ONLY board manufacturers without the ability to set fan profiles for the chipset fan. It does run pretty quiet. I can't hear it over the stock cpu cooler I'm using for now. However once I go water cooling it's possible it might be noticed.
VRM is more than enough for up through the 3950X at least. Buildzoid didn't have a lot of criticism for it vs Asus Z390 boards.

I've been building computers since 1976 and this is one of the best boards I've had... LOVE IT.
(Using it with Ryzen 3800x (gen 3) and 16gig ram and 2 x M2.0 disk drives.
En cuanto a la funcionalidad, es un producto de muy alta calidad y gran funcionalidad. La actualización fue muy sencilla aunque tardó unos minutos en terminar (Actualizada por pendrive). Las opciones para configuración de la tarjeta son bastante amplias, las cuales tomará (en mi caso) un tiempo estar investigando cada una de ellas. para recocer la velocidad de las memorias RAM , fue necesario modificar el perfil desde la Bios, ya que venía en stock y solo reconocía 2333mhz, al activar el perfil , ya fueron reconocidos los 3600mhz del modelo que instalé.
Para la instalación del SDD M.2 tuve que hacerlo en el slot m.2_2 ya que el disipador del SSD excedía las dimensiones de ancho del slot principal (m.2_1) y estaba muy justo con el puerto PCIEX_16_1.
La cantidad conexiones para ventiladores es amplia, ya que te permite configuraciones para todas las necesidades y gustos.
Para la instalación del procesador (Ryzen 3900x), tiene buen espacio para el disipador stock, en cuanto a distancia con las memorias RAM. Después al recibir el bracket AM4 para mi AIO, la instalación fue aún más sencilla, utilizando el backplate que tiene el socket del CPU.
En cuanto al Software en CD que viene con la tarjeta madre, instalé todo excepto uno de los programas que no lo permitió por que era una versión obsoleta, esto con la intención de instalar los drivers más actuales, posterior a ello pueden desinstalar los programas que no requieran.
En cuanto a audio, tuve que buscar la manera de instalar el Realtek Audio Manager para tener control de los Jacks posteriores y frontales, ahora funciona de maravilla y tengo control de todas y cada una de las funcionalidades que permite esta tarjeta madre.
