Decent mid-range board with limited RAM compatibility.
4 Stars
Decent mid-range board with limited RAM compatibility.
UPDATE: 07/29/23 - Asus released a beta BIOS update 1634 with “improved memory capability”. I downloaded and installed it and what do you know… it works! My 6000MT kit works without issues. I played for about an hour with zero BSODs, crashes, or resets! This is how it should have worked from the start Asus. I’m glad that they are focusing on improving ram compatibility. I don’t normally install beta versions of bios so I’ll be eagerly awaiting the regular release. Btw I upgraded to a 7900XTX recently with no issues on this board. I’ll bump up the rating to 4 stars.PREVIOUS REVIEW:I bought this board towards the end of Nov 2022 for a 7600X/3070Ti/Corsair white gaming build so I've had this for a few months now.Previously (AM4), I bought Asus boards and didn't have any issues. So I thought I'd go with Asus again. The price was quite steep for a new socket (AM5/DDR5) as expected but again I trusted Asus and liked the way this board looks with is silver heatsinks for my white build so I bought it anyway.My issue with this board is that RAM compatibility is quite bad, especially if you are going for white build with Corsair RAM. At the time of this review (06/2023) according to the Asus website the ONLY Corsair kit on their QVL list for this motherboard at 6000MT (which according to AMD is the "sweet spot") is the CMT32GX5M2D6000C36. Which is only available in a black colorway. I guess I should have done more research on this but if I had known this prior to purchase I would not have bought this board.This board is advertised right here on Amazon as "Strix B650-A is primed and ready for enthusiast-grade kits courtesy of vast AMD EXtended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support." I would hardly call one 6000 Corsair kit (which is actually XMP) and 4 actual EXPO kits at any speed/timings (see screenshot) as "vast". Maybe this will improve in the future, and Corsair can do more to get on Asus' QVL list or release more Expo kits in a white colorway, but only time will tell.I ended up purchasing a 6000MT CL36 white Corsair kit, CMH32GX5M2D6000C36W. Which from the start gave me BSODs and all kinds of crashes and errors using the DOCP profile. I thought I had a bad stick of RAM so I ran memtest at stock speeds (as recommended by Corsair for RMA) but the tests, which took forever BTW, all passed. I updated to the latest bios, version 1616 at the time of writing and the board refuses to boot at anything other than "Auto". So I tweaked the settings manually setting the speed to 5600 with 36 36 36 76 timings. No issues.If you are thinking of going past 6000MT then I also wouldn't recommend this board only 3 6200 kits (XMP) from TeamGroup are on the QVL list and 5 6400MT kits from other brands that I can't find for sale on Amazon or NewEgg.This board supports a decent amount of 5600MT kits. So if you are fine sticking with 5600MT then this is a fine board.Overall, the board is great if you plan on building out a black colorway PC, are fine with mostly 5600MT ram support, or don't mind mixing and matching brands (and their RGB software).But for me it's just "OK". I wanted a white build where iCue handled all the RGB and it's mostly there with a few sacrifices.

5.0 out of 5 stars overall a good motherboard, will pick RAM

Style: ATXSize: ROG STRIX B650E-F GAMING WIFIVerified Purchase
this motherboard is good in quality, fit my needs. it is picky for RAM. I bought a Crucial DDR5 RAM, which the crucial web site said it will work with B650E-F, but this RAM is not listed on ASUS website as supported RAM. And the result is: the machine cannot start. After I change the RAM from kinston, it works well.
This MB will not start if both CPU & compatible RAM are installed, no any sound/visual indicator for that, which is not the same as ASUS tech support said, ASUS tech support person said if CPU is not installed, a red led will light up. from my experiences, nothing will happen

Again and again I had crashes with this board, replaced the video card (regret there, but it seemed like that was the problem). Audio hissing and pops, okay, fine- typical from realtek, but it even made noise when the machine was *off*. Eventually this motherboard determined the CPU was bad, and refused to boot. Checking online, reseating the CPU might solve the problem. So I did (which means more wasted thermal paste), and then, finally it determined that the issue was I had USB power overloads. Even when I unplugged EVERY USB device on the the board. It just wouldn't boot. I spent over a month and am now outside my return window.

The solution? I bought an ASRock motherboard and it's been fine. This product is trash, and ASUS should be ashamed for making it. I've been building computers since 1988, and this is by far the worst experience I've ever had. Absolute junk. And the ASRock board? Not only does it "just work", it's got a 100% better UI for the BIOS. ASUS bios still feels like it's 1990..

I would not recommend. I don't even know what to do with this trash. This *probably* cost me $400 because of me not knowing WHAT exactly is wrong; I spent $1200 on a GPU and based on it constantly crashing, I went all out and spent $1700 on another, then the board just decided a permanent reboot loop at 15 seconds due to USB issues (with NO usb plugged in) was how it wanted to go.

Maybe I just got a bad board, but if you google ASUS motherboard, I sure don't seem to be the only one. 100% money wasted

Edit: sent to ASUS for repair, they refuse warranty repair claiming there is a bent CPU pin, which is somehow my fault. They want $130 to repair it, at which point they will send a replacement. I didn't bend it, it came that way. I can't even imagine what you could do to bend one (1) pin and not affect any of the ones around it. So apparently they aren't QCing their boards and blame the customer. I'm 100% out the $220 I spent on this board, they wanted to kick it up to $350, and on top of that, I had to pay $25 to send it in for an RMA they denied. Do not do business with ASUS. I'll be looking into litigation over this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excelent B650E motherboard, probably the best. But way too pricey.
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2023
Style: ATXSize: ROG STRIX B650E-E GAMING WIFIVerified Purchase
Update:

Today, June 24th 2023, Steve from Hardware Unboxed just uploaded a massive B650 board roundup with 35 boards total. That guy is a Legend. Steve picked the Asus B650E-F at 280 dollars as the best all-around board. And gave the second spot to this B650E-E board. Only reason why this didn't get first spot? The extra 70 dollars. In my opinion, the extra features of this board will better future proof your investment, and give you the coveted dual 7-segment fault code reader. 2x PCIe 5.0, 1x PCIe 4.0, 1x m.2 5.0, 3x m.2 4.0, Thunderbolt USB 4.0 (add-on adapter required sold separately), 10x USB 3.2, 8x USB 2 0, Wi-Fi 6e, 2.5GbE.

BIOS problems have been sorted out, and BIOS 1616 has been rock solid. I've manually disabled PBO and the CPU is still capable of boosting to 5,025 and 5,050 on its own. I also do not have an EXPO DDR5 module, yet the board works just fine with XMP enabled.

The warranty situation has been sorted out as well, ASUS no longer posts warnings disclaimers regarding Beta BIOS not being covered under warranty. They will cover the warranty as promised if your board is defective.

I've seen a lot of people giving a 1 star rating to the B650E-F and B650E-E, complaining about the BIOS, or about the board not having full support for all physical NVMe slots. These people need to educate themselves. It's both a limitation of the CPU as well as a chipset limitation by design. If you want more PCIe lanes, go ahead and pay more, by purchasing an X670E variant of this board. It's not rocket science.

Original review:

Let me start my review by saying one sad truth about the current state of our beloved enthusiast PC market: It's getting harder and harder to find hardware with great features at an affordable price.

Just 5 years ago, this motherboard would have hypothetically, cost between 180 to 230 bucks.

Unfortunately, manufacturers are artificially segmenting their products, removing features that were commonly found in entry level to mid tier motherboards and pushing these niceties to their handpicked "premium" boards. It's painful.

One great example of that is the removal of a simple, dual 7 segment BIOS error code display reader. My last board was a B450-GAMING-PRO-CARBON-AC and it only had 4 red LEDs for troubleshooting. it was extremely difficult to pinpoint exactly what was wrong or why the system crashed or didn't post. That's why I felt compelled to get a new board with those very useful built in displays. Unfortunately, you have to pay 100 for that nicety over the boards that would have served you well, but had such features removed. Gamers Nexus just made a video about this very issue. A few days ago.

I do like this board a lot. But it shouldn't have cost more than 280 to 300 bucks.

The things that I like about it:

-Heavy, beefy PCB

-The inclusion of a debug code reader on the board (expensive feature nowadays)

-Nice passive heatsinks and heatspreaders

-PCIe 5.0 x16 for the GPU

-PCIe 5.0 x4 for one NVMe drive (without affecting the PCIe 5.0 x16 for the GPU), and two PCIe 4..0 x4 m.2 NVMe drives without sacrificing the GPUs 16x lanes. If you populate the last (4th) NVMe slot, then the GPU loses lanes and it could slightly impact your GPUs performance.

-BIOS is very nice and useful, but a bit hard to navigate

-ARGB AURA can controlled / enabled / disabled within BIOS

ARGB can be fully controlled via the free OpenRGB software. Motherboard, RAM, GPU, PSU can all be sync up the this amazing and lightweight app. You can save your lighting presets and have the app execute them at startup to automate your lights without slowing down your system's resources / CPU / RAM. Nice!

-Very adequate VRMs

-Good BIOS CPU fan(s) curve / graph, allowing you to set exactly the desired temperatures and fan speeds.

-Plenty of high speed USB ports, and even Thunderbolt 4 port, but you'll need an add-on adapter your use it (sold separately)

-Vast memory compatibility, ensuring a fast and stable computer

-Good and timely BIOS updates including Beta BIOSes

-Reset BIOS button

-BIOS flashing without needing to have a fully functional or operational system (BIOS Flashback)

-BIOS profile save / restore allows you to easily save all your BIOS settings onto an USB flash drive and quickly restore all settings after a BIOS reset or new version update for example. It's very helpful an convenient!

I could go on about some other great things, but I'll switch to the things that should have been better:

-Priced too high, in the territory of X670 boards

-***Extremely long boot times with default memory settings. Gigabyte's AM5 boards have much quicker boot times by default.
***Found a way to shorten boot times significantly by selecting: AI Tweaker -> DRAM Timings -> Memory Context Restore to Enabled. It also enables Power Down to Enabled. This resulted in boot times between 17 to 20 seconds from full shutdown. BIG IMPROVEMENT!

-BIOS is a bit hard to navigate. I believe Gigabyte and MSI make easier to navigate BIOSes

-*Spyware / malware / rootkit-like Armoury Crate (for those who dare!) software that automatically opens up and starts to install itself immediately after a fresh Windows install. It's spooky and wrong in so many ways. It's pretty easy to uninstall it, and NONE of the features from this horrible software suite are necessary to run your system. I immediately un-installed all Asus software to free up system resources. What were they thinking, really... Shameful move by Asus. I've seen people return this board because of this problem. Time to wake up and listen to your customers ASUS.
*This automated software install can be completely disabled via BIOS options (on by default).

-No physical power button on the motherboard. Something a sub 200 dollar Socket 1155 board from 2011 had.

That's about it.

I actually would have picked up a Gigabyte B650E AORUS MASTER had it not been discontinued. I asked Gigabyte directly and they confirmed it. Sad.

I'm not going to put my computers parts list because I don't like to brag about it. This is not reddddit. I've spent too much and I'm actually embarrassed over it. Never, have I ever thought I'd be spending close to 4000 dollars on a high end gaming PC. But here we are in 2023 with every single tech company doing their best to drain our wallets dry.

You'll be well served with this board. Recommended by me and Steve from Hardware Unboxed. Have fun with your new system!

Got this for a secondary gaming and content making build. Used 32GB of Corsair memory with Expo, a 7800X3D, and 4070 video card. Only used the 3x M.2 onboard slots for storage. Setup and installation of the pieces was easy. Updated the BIOS first thing and then using the standard Asus BIOS adjusted my setting as needed. Then booted into windows. No issues from first boot. Booted up and has run great since. Fast and stable, works great.
