    Good product, it's ASUS through and through

    - Asus bios as usual
    - High-quality materials
    - Elegant and protective packaging
    - This Asus Z590 chipset is a bit temperamental when the CPU is an angry beast. So I wouldn't recommend this card to the average user. This is a card designed for overclocking. And if you don't set this bios, it'll blow up in your face.

    Very good

    Good motherboard, and pretty too. It does the job, I'll need more time to evaluate it but I'm very happy with it.

    Into the future but away from the past

    The card is at the top of its game, all drivers are provided for Windows 10 and planned for the next version 11, but no drivers are available for older versions of Windows 7, 8, and 8.1, which is a shame. I tested Windows 7 which is unrecoverable, and Windows 8.1 installs but having no drivers, an Intel Gigabit CT Desktop Ethernet card helped me to at least have a connection for software license registration and updates.

    Card not working

    I'm sorry, I can't get it to start even with asus processors, but it's a shame because of the price of the card.
