ASRock MB ASROCK | Z790M-ITX WiFi Motherboard

Board does what its suppose to, handles my 12600k perfectly fine with XMP but polychrome is a joke, updated bios and rgb firmware but cannot for the life of me get it to work in the bios. I wish asrock would put more time/effort into fixing this on all their boards.

Build my water cooled pc before testing it. It won't POST. They do not have a diagnostic light and they removed the speaker header, so if it doesn't work, you'll have absolutely no idea why. The only way to troubleshoot is to remove and replace every component.The motherboard is listed as supporting the Intel i7-14700kf. However, it shipped with a BIOS version older than the 14th gen. Maybe that's why it doesn't work.Regardless, I later found out that it has a maximum power draw of 150W for the CPU, meaning any i7 and possibly even i5s will be SEVERELY performance limited. It disgusts me that they list the processor as compatible without mentioning the possibly required BIOS update (of which you need an old processor to do) and the fact that your processor will suck with this motherboard anyway.Removing diagnostic abilities is pretty inexcusable too. Returning and buying a different brand. Don't cheap out like me.

A good ITX z790 board at a good price compared to others. I paired it with a 14700K.The power limit is not the best, as it cannot sustain 253W, limited to 150W PL1.It also doesn't support Intel Extreme tuning app, says overclocking isn't enabled. I don't want to overclock, I wanted to use it to tune my undervolt. Oh well.ASRock does keep the bios updated and I usually update it within 2 weeks of them releasing an update, wish it didn't reset all my settings though.

Using a 13th gen chip with 6000hz 32gb ram. Having no issues so far and I love the simple IO on the back. Really easy to use ssd heatsink as well. Uefi is a bit clunky but that comes with most modern bios’.

the delivery went well and arrived on time. the product conforms and meets my needs.

I love the board, has pretty good I/O and overall the size/price with what you get is pretty good. My biggest complaint is that there is only one port for CPU/WP controls, so I did not get to set up my AIO how I wanted.Word of caution: I did get a board with a dead RAM slot, but they were kind enough to send me replacement. The new board works perfectly, with no issues. Just something to keep in mind.

DOA. Had to wait until after the return period was up to complete my build. I read many reviews on this board, several of which pointed out DOA failures. I should have paid heed. Never have I had a board fail until now. In the past (10 years) I have always used ASUS or MSI boards with zero problems. I stayed away from ASRock because I had the impression (after reading many reviews) that their products were substandard. I told myself that I may have been mistaken and went ahead and got this for my gaming build. Turned out I was right. My advice - stay away from this board, probably stay away from ASRock products.

After setting the motherboard up, I was forced to pull out my former desktop to download drivers for the PC, as neither the WiFi nor the ethernet worked without them. Just a heads up, you may need two usb flash drives to be able to use it (one for windows, the other for the drivers.) Other than that though, the motherboard works perfectly fine.
