I’ve been planning to upgrade my PC since November, when my motherboard started to act, and stopped booting with RAM in two DIMMs.
I knew I wanted Asus motherboard with X570 chip, so I could install the latest AMD CPU.
At first I was looking at the TUF version, which is lower tier than Strix. But then I noticed that there was just a minor price difference between TUF and Strix.
Been using it for a month now.
What I liked so far:
You don’t need to look for a M2 screw for an SSD anymore. This board has a quick latch that fixes SSD in place.
There is a setting for LEDs in the BIOS that is called “Stealth”, I think, which completely disables all LEDs. This is really great, since I’m sleeping in the same room with my PC.
Things I don’t like:
It is still very hard to get to that NVMe SSD. You have to remove the videocard anyway to get to it.
