Quality

This is pretty standard for new asus boards.

My devices worked great connected to a laptop sitting a few inches from the desktop.

I've been testing and running it for several days now and it has been rock solid.

Weak vrms:as has been reported, this board has weak vrms *if* you're trying to power a top end am5 cpu.

Price

If you can snag this open box for a good price, have patience and most importantly have access to the right memory then yes.

No diagnostic led:for a $200 board, the lack of any type of debug diagnostic leds is simply unacceptable.

Overall a good board for the price.

Packaging/appearance

I picked up an amazon warehouse open box for some nice savings and as always they are hit or miss.

Competitiveness

However, the b650 is a lot cheaper.

I've seen diagnostic lights on b650 boards costing almost half as much as the asus board.
