I like ASUS STRIX B650E-F WIFI Gaming and would like to pair it with 7800X3D. Feature wise it has everything i need + high end audio chip. Did Asus fix their BIOS drama or should i choose another MBO?

    It’s not as clear as you might think - for starters, 99% of people had no issues with the boards anyway. The real issue with Asus is how they botched their BIOS patches anyway (they weren’t alone though!) and their dreadful consumer services. The BIOS stuff should be smoothed over by now, but that doesn’t make Asus any less scummy.

    I’d say don’t get the Asus board purely because of what Asus is as a company, but even if you do get the board, you’re probably going to be fine :)

      I guess the search continues then. I’m in no rush to buy anyway. Tnx.

    I went with Gigabyte and I’ve been very happy with them. No security leak, pretty quick with patches, and stable.

      I’ve been eyeing Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite AX. It’s almost perfect, only thing it lacks is PCIe gen 5.0. I know it’s not necessary right now but future GPUs might use it. My builds usually last me around seven years so i go through at least two GPU changes.

    Wait, what? I built an ASUS X670E with an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X last year. What should I be looking out for?
