This board preforms great. The cpu cooling... options to use either an older am3 cooler or an am4 is a slick feature for those who have a great cooler and don't see the need in upgrading. Back brackets for mounting are sold separately. 2 RGB 12v controllers built in ad a nice feature with Aura sync for lots of customizable options with lighting. The only downside I see with this board is installing it in a case with multiple front USBs. Options are limited but are easily addressed with a USB internal hub controller, also sold seperately. With the Crossfire X and SLI support, one can install 2 or 3 Video cards for extreme gaming or graphics processing. All in all, it is a great board with a nice price point. Would recommend this for anyone upgrading from AM3 chipsets to the new AM4 RYZENs.

If uiu are planning on using any of the ROG board B450..., 370 or others do not expect to be able to use all or most of the PCIe slots. I have tried now 3 different asus ROG boards for my streaming business using 4 or 5 Avermedia capture cards. None of the boards are able to maintain bandwdith and they freeze. Even if you dont use tge 2nd x16 slot the other slots do not work with or without a high power in my case 1070 gpu. I am giving up and going intel to solve this. Asus returned me RMA two boards and nothing changed. Its a clear design flaw. If you need PCI slots, more than 1, dont buy a ROG board.
