ASRock MB Z790 PG Riptide R

Saved some cash on used, the item doesnt look used so not sure why returned. Works great out of box, not using for overclocking or anything but the XMP worked fine with my DDR5 6000. Put in a 14700k also which worked great. Kudos to Amazon for offering used electronics at discount.

Era lo que esperaba buena maquina

Scheda madre completa, senza WI-FI, ma con una scheda di rete molto performante (Killer E3100G) Ottimo rapporto prezzo/prestazioni. (Pagata meno di 250 euro) Chipset Intel Z790 stabile e performante ! 1 x Blazing socket M.2 (M2_5, Key M), Supporta type 2280 PCIe Gen5x4 (128 Gb/s) sicuramente il punto di forza Giudizio più che positivo!

---Intro--- The board is clean. Enough room to get your fingers in there and install everything you need. The post codes aren't in depth, but I wonder if that's confidence it'll work 🤔 Good luck trying to find advice out there without contacting support. ---Build Quality--- The IO shield and USB3 headers are a little flimsy but they work just fine. The header thing itself isn't flimsy, but my USB3 wire from Lian Li wiggles in it, so it could just be a size difference. The ports are well placed and gives you everything you need. I haven't tested every single header, but I'm impressed so far. ---RAM Compatibility--- Asrock has a list of compatible DRAMs. This isn't on the list but is compatible (Teamgroup 2x16 DDR5). XMP worked just fine. https://a.co/d/iqWxWGA ---Clean install--- I may just be rusty to building, but I didn't realize my NVMe wouldn't be recognized as a boot drive despite the BIOS stating it's supposed. Flash Windows ISO with a USB and install Windows on the NVMe. (I was using the Hyper M2 slot, not the blazing) ---BIOS--- I'm used to EVGAs BIOS from an old z370. In comparison; this BIOS is more bland/simple. But it 100% works well, and it's straight to the point. Having checked out its "Fan-tastic tuning" yet. I have not OC'd and likely won't be. You won't see that in this review. Haven't tested PCIE yet. Will come back and edit review.

Veramente un'ottima scheda madre!
