Secure Boot Asus Bios

Will not recognize BT keyboard on initial boot up so need wired to get into Bios.

Provides all features required, LED lights and BIOS codes provide information during boot-up, easy to set up.

Works great once its set up correctly in the bios. Installed alongside the oem wd_black m.2 and used the included acronis subscription to move my OS over to the sn850x. I had to reset the cmos to get it to boot, and had to reformat the original drove to stop windows from reverting my boot order. I was initially disappointed in my benchmark scores before realizing that the pci lanes are intertwined in a way that both drives are affected. Basically, it made my original drive appear much faster than normal and the sn850x slower than advertised in testing. In real-world use, its fast and stable though. The dashboard app is also nice to have as well. Mine is mounted behind the GPU with no heatsink and never reaches above 60° at full load.

This card has it's own bios that boots when you boot the computer. I have 2 sets of HDD's configured as RAID 1 (mirrored). Great for secure storage. If the computer fails, it should not affect the data. If you blow a HDD, you can replace it and the array will rebuild itself. You can take the entire assembly and move it to another computer without data loss. It integrates itself for drive configuration as if it were plugged into the SATA bus. One caution....Make sure you purchase RocketRAID and not just a RAID card. The RAID card doesn't have the spin down function.

I like the color, so neat yet powerful. I like the bios system, so simple to update. Lastly, it's Asus man, of course I like it!

This is a excellent motherboard! After initial BIOS update everything works perfectly. ASUS will be my goto boards in the future!

Would love more ASUS motherboards to be in white or have white back plates!!! I'm glad this exists and hope there will be something like this (also w/ BIOS flashback) when I upgrade my motherboard in the future.

I have always used ASUS boards but this is the first Micro-ATX board that I have used. Well laid out and easy to install all of the components. I was concerned about the bios being ready for the newest Ryzen 5 5600GT cpu but it booted with no issues. You will have to upgrade the bios though as it addresses a serious security flaw. But that is with all board manufacturers. B&H delivered on time and everything was well packed. This is important when shipping delicate electronics. A lot of companies can learn from B&H.

I have been pleased with ASUS products over the years. While this MB is not the very latest it's a good choice for my needs with all the features needed. Please understand that Mini-ITX MB's can have some limitations do to their form size. This board needed a bios update as initially there were issues only recognizing 1 of the 2 NVMe chips, also had issues with CPU temps and voltages which were all resolved with the bios update. These issues have nothing to do with B&H I only share them to possibly help someone in the future. This and previous purchases through B&H have always been great with good pricing/shipping.

Asus, you are really delivering the technological powerhouse of stability. Keep it going. I am looking forwards to future Bios Updates and Updates on the product.
