    Couldn't overclock above 3200MHz on the RAM, but that's probably a Z170/first gen DDR4 trace layout issue more than this specific board, so won't count it against the board. Had no issues with it otherwise.

    Aesthetically pleasing and I've had no issues with it.

    It's very good motherboard, there are some questions that I had, and couldn't find anywhere on motherboard manual. Also Asus support is not that good at helping when it comes to higher tier questions. Missing RGB.

    "A racehorse." It's a great board but it's annoying as hell to a fault. There are a stupid amount of owners who suffer from the Boot_device_led problem, and I assume that the board just one day decides to read the wrong order of your drives. It's beautiful if it runs, but god is it a pain when it doesn't. Stay away from it, I will recommend ASROCK, MSI, or Gigabyte boards before ASUS now. I've had to open up to service my computer way too many times now, and it's not even because I want to. I've woken up to days where suddenly, my computer doesn't turn on anymore. This is my first product review, and I had to go out of my way to finally get rid of this culprit that's been causing me two years of headaches.

    Good motherboard and price for the features but I'm taking off a star because the USB ports on my board failed after 3 months of usage. I was able to RMA it and get a replacement which has worked flawlessly so far.

    Nice to work with, easy and appealing UEFI BIOS. Glad I went with the Z chipset. The black and white theme is a nice touch.

    Brought over from my previous build. Overall it is a good board, but I do have one gripe with it. Do to some kind of bug with the LAN drivers that for the life of me I couldn't fix, the Ethernet port gave out on me after about 3 months of having it. After I toiled with it for a solid day I gave up trying to fix it and bought a PCIe card.
