it is a very nice motherboard but...the cmos battery was kind of a trouble for me but not really sure because it did solved me a problem removing it and putting it back in because whenever i saved and exit my bios settings it only saved and exit completely no booting up to windows but instead a black display or no display maybe because the boot order? but atleast make it automatic if it doesn't detect...only if i havent heard of this setting but for me it should always be turned on...it kinda gave me anxiety as a first time builder 😅

This Mobo is great for anybody who wants a budget build and quality in a compact size. The only downside i can think of is the integrated RGB wich look like a error LED.

I like that this motherboard has 2 PCIE slots. The front panel connection need to be a lot more sturdy. Bent the pins on it and had to buy a adapter card that had pins like this board should have in the first place. Make a more sturdy version of this board, and charge a little more.

Is what it is. GPU blocks all other pcie slots. Unresponsive SATA port. Pcie lock blocks it from fully being inserted. I don't like the pulsating orange led that's integrated into the board.
1 reply from CLM team - 7 months ago
Dear Shamrock, We do understand your disappointment with the product and the inconvenience this may have caused if it didn't meet your expectations. This motherboard has a Micro-ATX form-factor so PCI slots are closer to each other and will limit installing more than one PCI cards especially if a discreet video card was installed. If the SATA port is unresponsive, please check that the SATA drive is working properly and seated correctly in the slot. The pulsating LED can be disabled in the BIOS, or through the RGB lighting controls. Should you need further assistance with the motherboard, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I will be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.
