Reviews around build (5.00 of 5)

  • If you are only going to check your mail, surf the web, and use Microsoft Office programs, then this motherboard is overkill: you would be much better off buying an inexpensive, ready-built laptop
  • Assembling a computer from parts is more expensive than buying a ready-built machine; but I keep building my own computers simply because computer manufacturers are not building machines with the features or with the quality that I want

Reviews around standoff (5.00 of 5)

  • There was one tiny setback, where my top standoff screws wouldn't align, even with the I/O shield solidly in place
  • I did have trouble getting top standoff screws to line up to holes but was able to do it but was very tight

  • Unique features - what sets this aside from top tier boards from Asrock, MSI, Gigabyte, EVGA?- ASUS is the UEFI king.

Reviews around asus support (5.00 of 5)

  • I called Asus support on
  • When I asked Asus support for new screws they told me I had to either RMA, (Meaning you pay to ship motherboard back to them for $20-$30 and do without motherboard for 2-3 weeks or longer) or I could buy my own screws because they would not send me new ones

Reviews around screw (3.86 of 5)

  • In this day and age where everyone has windowed cases who wants to look in and see marred/scratched up screws
  • I have an Asus Strix Z270-E board as well and wasn't sure if I should take the Z390E or the Maximus Hero
  • To test, I then switched them around and it appears the bottom right screw slot of the M.2 drive takes way much more torque than with the others -to the point that you have to really dig in
  • I did have trouble getting top standoff screws to line up to holes but was able to do it but was very tight
  • There was one tiny setback, where my top standoff screws wouldn't align, even with the I/O shield solidly in place
