Now we just need to cross our fingers and hope they release a bios to support the 9800x3d processor. I bought this board back in July from Amazon prime day deal for 199.00 and just bought my 9800x3d which showed up today. But last I checked there wasn’t a supported bios for the chip. Nevertheless very nice review for the board thanks for taking the time to create the content. 🍻
Looks nice, but lacks a few features. A lack of debug LED and heat sinks for the M.2 drives kills it for me. I love the look of the board; it just comes up a bit short on features.
@@RexRapido Depends which one, smaller heatsinks will work just fine, but you can always install in the most bottom M.2 slot, no obstruction from the GPU 😀
i bought this board when i built my first pc. i have this board inside a h9 flow case with a 4070 ti s tuff eddition and it all looks so good together! pricy motherboard though,
In which color you got the H9 and N7? building one too with both parts and thinking about going with a black case and a white mobo, but can't find anything to get a glimpse how it could look.
Thanks for the review. 🙏🏼 I like the aesthetic, and I really like the fact that it's made by ASRock (I *am* an ASRock fanboi 😇). It's very robust in terms of its features, but I really don't like the lack of cooling for the M.2_2 & M.2_3 slots. I'm somebody who _would_ use them, and in order to properly cool the SSDs occupying them I'd necessarily have to ruin the motherboard's aesthetic (which is one of the primary attractions of the N7) in the process. I also don't like CAM. I've had to use CAM in my two most recent personal builds (this one in an H210i chassis, and the previous one employing a Kraken AIO), and it *always* under-reports my CPU temperature (on both builds 🙄) by 6°C. (I just received CAM's v4.67.3 update yesterday, in fact, and HWiNFO64 is still showing a 6 degree higher temp. 😆) So at the end of the day, I'd rather purchase an ASRock motherboard. They may not produce this _exact_ SKU under the _ASRock_ label, but I don't necessarily see that as a *bad* thing. 🤔 EDIT: Typo Management
Interesting observation for the temps, maybe it uses wrong sensor from the board and you are looking at another one in the HWInfo. Also there is a thing that CAM and HWInfo could clash with each other and give you wrong info, as HWInfo is polling like every seconds, while CAM as I remember reads the sensor every 3-5 seconds so that is why you are getting different readings. Idk personaly I have no issues with CAM and I was surprised how it is ok now compared to much older versions from 2020 and past ones...
@@LevelUPGamingTech If it was a case of the two programs somehow stepping on one another, I don't believe the differential in reported temperatures would be the same six degrees across two completely different platforms (this one being Windows 11-based, run by a 13th generation i9 CPU, while the other one is Windows 10 system on a 7th generation i7). I think it's more likely that CAM is just getting it wrong. I say this because I've diligently searched HWiNFO's temperature readings for one that is consistently 6 degrees higher than what it's reporting as the CPU temperature (which I would presume to be the same sensor CAM is reporting from), but I can't find it -- not at idle or under load. Either way, I'm trusting HWiNFO's reporting over CAM's. 😏
Hey !Can you help me with a question since you know far more than me?I prioritize ANC and comfort and I have these options;(edifier WH950NB, sony wh750b, 1more sonoflow, anker soundcore q30 and space one)what option is better?you can sugest something else if you know
The board looks great, but some design choices are questionable. Especially for the $270 pricetag, since there're better alternatives. Still, I do hope they stick around and improve 🙂
Did you have any wifi problems with this board because the for me it wont do wifi at all and wont any option other than ethernet on windows i go into device manager and it acts as if it needs a driver but i cant find anything online and ive already downloaded the latest bios wondering of you delt with anything
so for nvme ssds i can solve the problem with thermal pads… for the 90 degree bent USB Type E cable…I waited for the review but you didn't mention if it's compatible or if an adapter is needed… What do you advise me to do? its cost in Europe is €360, so not exactly a bargain

Keep us updated!
Very Nice Review 👌🏻 keep up the good job 👏🏻
Thank you so much 🙏

Everything is "fixed" on the new X870E model 😀
@@LevelUPGamingTech Do you have one for review? I'm in the process of building a new PC right now.
@@SPSteve Waiting for it to arrive probably next month 👍
@@LevelUPGamingTechpredicted date of its release?
The lack of cooling on the 2 lower m.2 sockets, is a very bizarre choice.
Yup as I said, they could have made it possible, just with added cooling pads underneath and bare metal on top, would work 😉
@@LevelUPGamingTech what if I install an m.2 with a heatsink and just remove the panels? would that work or would the heatsink hit the gpu?
@@RexRapido Depends which one, smaller heatsinks will work just fine, but you can always install in the most bottom M.2 slot, no obstruction from the GPU 😀
yes, this is holding me back from buying it
Great review and very fair with the criticisms.
Thanks a lot buddy 🙏

Does the top SSD slot has its own pcie lanes or does the 16x pcie5 graphics slot drop down to x8 when using a Pcie5 SSD there?
Own lanes
Nice review, does it really support up to 7200mhz ram? Since on the webpage it states only up to 6000mhz.
Doable but with certain ram sticks, anyway sweet spot and recommended frequency for Ryzen 7xxx series is 6000MHz anyway 😀
@ For sure man, subbed & thanks!
so for nvme ssds i can solve the problem with thermal pads…
for the 90 degree bent USB Type E cable…I waited for the review but you didn't mention if it's compatible or if an adapter is needed… What do you advise me to do?
its cost in Europe is €360, so not exactly a bargain
Doable with some 90 degree adapters but told you what to do if you can't put that one
How did you get dark mode on your nzxt cam?
Should be there in settings heheh if not set windows to dark mode, CAM should follow system
Hallo :P Kann ich die 9900x3d cpu mit gutem Gewissen in mein b650-e Board packen ?
What is the VRM temperature at 100% use on a 7950x?
Haven't tested it with 7950X, but what I saw from other reviewes should be around 75 when max stressed out with synthetic benchmarks
@@LevelUPGamingTech Does that seem like a lot? What was the temperature in your tests?
Nah you are fine, it's way below 100 😂
With 7800X3D it was up to 66-67 at max, other than that while gaming and such below 60

I really want this broad since it has a very clean look, but i have been hearing that it has alot of problems so i am not sure if i should get it.
Hey bud, What problems have you heard about? I also want to know, because I also want to buy it
@ nvm that was the older broads this one is actually good 👍
@Waffles435 thanks FYI
@ no problem man.
can i take ddr5 6000MHz ram?
yes
Did you watch the video?
