NO WAY TO CONTROL MY CORSAIR LIQUID COOLER SUPPORT HAS FAILED TO ANSWER
1 reply from CLM team - 2 months ago
Dear Leadfootphil, We do understand your dissatisfaction with the quality of your recent customer service experience, and the inconvenience this may have caused. We do value our customers and take the negative customer service experience very seriously. This is not the quality of service expected from ASUS. We continuously strive to improve our approach and processes to achieve customer service excellence. The motherboard's pricetag is competitive considering all its cutting-edge features, please visit the motherboard's support page for details at: https://rog.asus.com/us/motherboards/rog-maximus/rog-maximus-z790-dark-hero/. To control your Corsair liquid cooler, you need to use the Armoury Crate utility software. You can download the software at: https://rog.asus.com/us/motherboards/rog-maximus/rog-maximus-z790-dark-hero/helpdesk_download/. If you need further assistance with the motherboard, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I will be more than happy to help.

Very nice. Connected everything and booted first go. No issues. Works and looks great with the Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 I partnered it with. I would like to change the RGB display to something other than just ROG.
Great board.

For right now the dark hero is working amazing with the 14th Gen I9, Gigabyte 4090, and the DDR 5 ram I got. Have had no crashes and system runs amazing.
It’s expensive, but worth it

Good-Looking and capable motherboard. Tons of features including WI-Fi 7 and memory support up to 8000mhz+ Running mine with an Intel i9-14900k and G.Skill Trident Z5 DDR5-7200 at rated speed with XMP profile. AI overclocking working great clocked at 6.2ghz running cool enough with a simple custom 240mm watercooler. No issues with Armoury Crate software keeping tabs on vitals and notifying/installation of updates. Polymo lighting is slick and customizable (colorwise). Plenty of options for connectivity. Typical Asus good looks and quality. One caveat though, there are (2) 8-pin CPU 12v and (1) 8-pin PCI-e power connectors. Not many PSU's have that extra 12v connector so be aware that you'll need an adapter
Great all round board with plenty of features.

I am shall we say a more mature user at 61? I am a solidworks user a mild gamer all round instrument engineer that has a particular requirement. This suited my needs and as i have always appreciated Asus quality inovation was what i chose for my job. With i9 1400KS, corsair Titanium 2x 96gb pairs and my trusty Asus AMD Radeon 6700XT. I am able to run multiple 3D cad windows have loads of background apps running then in my down time play the odd game or stream the latest Motogp racing. This Motherboard has all the features you could want. With great WIFi support. With multiple support for M2 NVME ssd it is blisteringly fast. Yet to overclock but that will come in time.
Ok Board

Good experience so far, had it a few days. Would prefer the polymer display to show clock/date/stats.

A great motherboard that's easy to work with. I chose this motherboard because of its memory, NVMe, and CPU support, as well as its Thunderbolt ports. It is good-looking, very stable, and had all the interfaces and features you can wish for. It would have been great if there were a 19Gbps network interface, but that was an easy expansion.
Disappointing

Overall disappointed. No physical manuals, Windows drivers and M2-1 and M2-2 cooling is impeded by GPU in PCie slot 1. The Hero is much better thought out
