ASUSMicro ATX DDR4 LGA 1151 Motherboards H110M-K

I bought this board to upgrade from a 5Gen Core i5/16GB DDR2 rig with a Gigabyte Z87 board. My job requires me to work with many large (>100GB) 64-bit Win10 virtual machines, and my Core i5 machine was thrashing too much. With this board and 6Gen Core i7 16GB DDR4, the difference is huge. Some tweaking was required - the delivered BIOS version 3401 had VT-X for hardware VM support but it was disabled with no way in the UEFI to enable it. Upgrading to BIOS v3601 fixed this and gives much more granularity over other CPU settings. BIOS flashing using the UEFI EZ-Flash tool was simple and straightforward. The MB has only 4 SATA ports. I need 6, so I ordered an IO Crest 4-port SATA III PCIe 2.0 x2 controller, SI-PEX40064 and also a JacobsParts USB 3.0 Front Panel Expansion Bay to take advantage of the 20-pin MB header. This was my first ASUS board in many years. I'm very pleased with the results and would readily buy it again.

Mine came clean and pristine and it is working like a champ in a rig that I built. It's solid and I loved the diagnosis it came up with even before I'd put an OS onto the rig. Once it's wired up all the ways it tracked everything that i'd put on it was really great. The board was clearly marked and the information pamphlet made it easy to connect up everything. So I'd highly recommend this for anyone that wants to build a budget rig. And it says right in the title that it's for DDR4 RAM, and the sticks I bought are working perfectly in it.

Easy installation and bios set up had no issues low power consumption board runs fatal frame 5 off of the boards integrated graphics I found this out after I realized my msi 2060 graphics card was faulty I was like well how is this graphic intensive game playing if my computer is telling me my GPU is not connected 😂 I'd still recommend getting a GPU for any board but yeah this is made of good stuff you'll need a wifi adapter unless you buy the higher priced model though

Had the unit is a clean simple with adequate cooling and a midrange card and CPU and within 6 months it has now failed.Just know you get what you paid for. I'll never waste my money on a cheap board again.

UPDATE: The first board I received had some QC issues. The socket cover and cmos battery were loose inside the static bag and when I built my system, I found that one of the ram slots didn't work and having ram in it would prevent the computer from booting. A replacement was easy to arrange via amazon and the new board works perfectly fine.I like everything about the board but I am missing DVI output, but it's not a deal breaker and I've just moved on to Display Port. I've heard that there are some issues with this chipset and the PCI bus regarding bandwidth so I'd look into that and maybe get a slightly better chipset, but otherwise this thing is fine.OLD REVIEW:I'm really brand loyal to ASUS for motherboards. Obviously things can happen to anyone with any board, but personally I have never had a single issue with any of the 5+ systems I've built in my lifetime. This board had several issues. First, upon opening the box, while the board appeared new, the socket cover and cmos battery were loose inside the static bag. So it was either returned and sold as new or went through horrible QC. Not a good sign off the bat. Secondly, the board would not boot with two sticks of ram in it. Either stick works, but only in one slot. Also, I plugged in the USB3 cable during the build and then when I went to unplug it to troubleshoot, it ripped the plastic socket around the pins right off the board. That being said, stuff happens, and the price is right, so I ordered a replacement and hopefully it works well. I will update this review after the new one is installed.

Let's face, this isn't the best mobo money can buy. But it was the one I needed and it arrived in perfect condition and on time. What more can you ask for?

No real issues with this motherboard, to be honest. I installed it, and it works. Can't really say much more than that until I've had it for a while. Still, the box arrived unsealed, and someone seems to have pilfered my I/O shield as well as my SAT cables. Kinda messed up, but at least it works. I guess.

With a G4400 CPU, 8GB RAM module and a GTX750 i have a solid desktop for ocational gaming (eg. Dota 2) and stuff.Important note: If you want to install W7 is pretty useful the EZInstaller included in the DVD Mobo. You will need the W7 DVD installer (or an W7 ISO image) and also an >8GB USB stick in order to create a W7 unattended installer.
