A quick background: The PC is mainly used for non-gaming activities, such as productivity and media.
Pros: - The machine has been up and running for 4 days. So far it is stable (i5-4670K overclocked to 4.5GHz). I don't have a comparison whether this is an optimal overclocking. For those experts, my built scores 680 on CINEBENCH. Again, no idea if this is good or not. - Built by a reputable company. Work right out of the box. Drivers are available on ASUS support site (super easy download). - Everything works (with the exception of ASUS software - more on that later). If you have built a PC, you know how satisfying when things go as planned. - A good looking board. I don't like the bright gold color on the Z87 mainstream generation. Obviously, this is a personal preference. - UEFI Bios is super easy to navigate. I already updated the firmware twice. ASUS is fast in providing BIOS updates for early adopters. - Wi-Fi AC works flawlessly. I love the fact that I don't need to buy an adapter. My rig looks simple and clean. - Install was a breeze. Cables were all firmly connected. Everything felt solid. Like I said, it's a good quality board.
Here comes the con. Both ASUS 5-Way Optimization by DIP5 and ASUS Home Cloud software don't work!!! The software is advertised as features of the product. - Dual Intelligent Processors 5: keeps getting "Access Violation at Address" error. - ASUS Home Cloud: keeps getting "Network Disconnected" error. Note: I am using Windows 8.1
I have spent hours researching the issues. I finally gave up because I have a job and a child - no time. So, I uninstalled everything.Read more ›

Bought this to replace an old MB but the combination of the this Z97 and the i5 CPU needs a BIOS upgrade that I had to speak to an ASUS Tech to complete. Be aware that the Intel Core i5 - 4690K processor LGA 1150 is not compatible out to the box. Amazon had them listed together so I ordered them and had to go through gyrations with the ASUS people. It now works, although.

Great board! Nothing bad to say. I've had it over a month now and no problems. I game a lot and it works great for me. I have a i7 4790k running at 4.4. 16gb RAM Wi-Fi works great for me. I would buy again if i do another build.

This thing has everything needed for your newest MOBO. Setup on first book is simple and straight forward.2 weeks afterset this is a very stable setup for a solid state hard drive and EVGA 770GTX. Boot time is 21 seconds with a I5 CPU. I Love this motherboard

Great board! No unexpected problems in setup or with compatibility. Installed my H110 with no clearance issues with the heat sinks directly around the CPU but be warned they are a bit taller then the older Z87 boards (Z87 Pro) so it may cause issues with some air coolers. There is plenty of room around the gfx card so no issues there.
On board sound is nothing ground breaking but it does work well. It overclocked to 4.4GHz without breaking a sweat and has remained stable through normal and gaming use. Overall this is a great board for someone looking to get into the Z97 line. It is priced a bit higher then some other comparable boards but has the added benefit of on board AC wifi so if that's something you were looking to upgrade you might be saving yourself a few dollars that way.
As a side note: The Asus software has some bugs/install issues but it doesn't detract from the overall board. The board shipped with the oldest bios. I highly recommend getting the latest and greatest at the support website!

This is a very good mobo for just about any use. It has every kind of port that anyone might need, including some useful legacy ports like VGA. The UEFI is generally easy to use if you have any idea what you're doing, but some of the UI elements are a little bit annoying. There are too many options fit into too few menus, although options are not necessarily a bad thing. The automatic overclocking function works quite well. My Pentium G3258 overclocked to 4.4 GHz automatically with the stock cooler, and my RAM is overclocked to 1900 MHz. Essentially, it just raised my base clock to 101.98 MHz and raised the multiplier from 32 to 43. I haven't had any voltage or stability issues, so it seems that this has worked very well. RAID was also very easy to set up, although it didn't work until after an update. This motherboard came with the original UEFI installed even though there have been three or four updates, so I had to do that before anything would work properly. My only other complaint is the color, but that's entirely subjective.

Works great. I know these kinds of reviews might seem lame, but you can ask about any part of this motherboard and I would say the same thing.. "Works great". I can't think of a single thing that didn't work at LEAST to my expectations, and most of the features exceed them.
I am running a 4770k with a healthy Overclock - works great. My wireless ac router connects and gets great speed with no drops - works great. 16gb of corsair vengeance 1600mhz running above rated speeds - works great. How's the uefi bios and it's features like individual fan control? - works great.
I'm usually a little hesitant to get the first motherboard of any new chipset. I usually wait for a revision to two so companies can work out the kinks. I can honestly say that this motherboard doesn't have any. Great buy and my new to-to board for new builds.
