Review: Rock-solid performance with TUF quality🛡️⚙️💪 - The ASUS TUF X870-PLUS WiFi motherboard has been an excellent foundation for my build. It is currently powering a Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with 64GB of Corsair Dominator DDR5 6000MHz CL30 memory, an RTX 5070 Ti, and a PCIe Gen 5 NVMe SSD, and it has handled everything flawlessly. Right out of the box, it feels extremely high quality, with solid components and a very robust power delivery design that inspires confidence, especially for higher-end Ryzen CPUs. Some of my favorite features are the EZ Debug LEDs, which make troubleshooting incredibly easy, and the tool-less M.2 latch, which makes installing NVMe drives quick and hassle-free. The BIOS is also a standout—it’s clean, easy to navigate, and packed with a plethora of tweaks and settings for anyone who wants to fine-tune their system, whether you’re a beginner or a more advanced user. Enabling EXPO for my RAM was quick and painless, and everything worked perfectly on the first try. ASUS also includes great extras like AI overclocking, which is fun to experiment with and easy to use for light tuning. I have my PCIe Gen 5 NVMe installed in the M.2_1 slot, which allows the graphics card to continue running at full x16 bandwidth. It’s worth noting that if you want your GPU to run at full x16, you should avoid using the M.2_2 slot, as it shares PCIe lanes with the primary PCIe slot. Overall, this board offers an excellent balance of performance, features, and build quality. It has everything you would need for a high-end gaming PC while also being perfectly suited for everyday use. For the price, it delivers fantastic value and fully lives up to the TUF Gaming reputation for reliability and durability.
Review: Ubuntu 24 out-of-the-Box totally functional - Used this to build AMD Ryzen 9. Nov 2025: Amazing this thing has full support of all components using latest Ubuntu (24.04). I bought an ASUS board some years ago and it didn't work well with Linux, no bluetooth and other various quirks. Also I read that this board would have Wifi and bluetooth not supported without additional hardware/drivers. Really I haven't tested the audio yet but it should be just fine. Wifi and Bluetooth fully functional right out-of-the-box without any additional drivers. What a nice surprise. The board looks great, runs great and was fun to build. Wifi speeds are now through the roof. I did have an issue with the Asus junk antenna that came with one of their older gaming boards that I bought. Because of that, I was reluctant to choose Asus this time but after reading reviews on many other boards, it seemed the only choice. The upgraded Wifi7 antenna that came with this board is impressive and not feeling like junk at all.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great mid range motherboard with plenty of PCIE5 Lanes
*by F***K on February 3, 2026*

Was able to get linux working on this pretty well, had to change the settings for secure boot away from Windows. The its a pretty bare bones, no thrills kinda motherboard but what you do get is pretty nice, lots of PCIe5 lanes, nice build quality, and pretty good heatsinks. The bios update/rollback feature worked well for me, I was able to update the bios with a jump drive without even booting it up, so that was nice. The amount of USB connections was adequate and M.2 was great, but I would've still preferred more sata connections, it only sports two. I have an optical drive, front panel, and a big magnetic drive I wish I could rope into the system, but regardless, this is definitely a forward leaning motherboard.
