So to be clear: I bought the renewed/used like new version of this MoBo, and this is my experience. I've been using this motherboard for a few days now on a brand new build, and everything is working smoothly and without issue. I was able to boot into Bios easily and make all the necessary adjustments with no major issues. The Bios that it came with is from October so about 8-9 months old, but it still worked right off the bat with my Ryzen 5 9600x, which was my major question. I didn't want to have to do a Flashback immediately before getting things up and running. When I got the package, everything looked as it would have if it were new, except that the anti-static bag the Mobo came in was taped closed, not necessarily factory sealed, but that's sort of irrelevant. I *believe* that it came with all of the extras/accessories/cables but honestly if it did, I would have liked more. There weren't any extra screws, other than the M.2 clip-screw replacements, and there weren't any extra cables, which would have been nice. The manual was there and looked new, and is not a bad manual when it comes to explaining all aspects of the function of the motherboard and features. Speaking of which, the rear ports are a great selection on this mobo, plenty of ports, everything working as they should, and the quality of the board seems great. Another reason I bought this motherboard was the SupremeFX audio codec on board, which as far as mid-tier motherboards go, seems to be a pretty good on-board audio setup. So far, with testing on intricate songs like Steely Dan's Aja and Daft Punk's Touch, the sound is amazing, very clear, multi-layered, and no static-y edge that I was getting in the past. Overall, I think this board is a steal at $160 in 2025, and I am happy to report no issues with a "used" or "renewed" motherboard. I will update this review if there are any major failures or issues.

The ASUS ROG Strix B650E motherboard has been an excellent choice for my AM5 build and pairs extremely well with the Ryzen 9800X3D. Setup was smooth, BIOS was easy to update, and the board recognized the CPU and memory without any issues. Power delivery and thermals have been solid, even during long gaming sessions, and the system has been completely stable. EXPO memory enabled easily, boot times are reasonable, and overall performance has been exactly what I expected from a high-end gaming-focused board. The feature set is strong for the price, including PCIe 5.0 support, plenty of USB ports, good networking, and a clean BIOS layout. Build quality feels premium, and the layout made installation straightforward. If you’re building an AM5 gaming PC—especially with a 9800X3D—this motherboard is a great fit and easy to recommend.

Very good mid-range board. It's a good looking board and is working great. The B650 is a good chipset for a basic rig that you just want to work or game on and don't plan to do tons of overclocking or need a bunch of features that most people don't use. Very impressed using in a gaming PC with a 9800X3D CPU.

If you can get it on sale, it's great value, I'd 100% recommend it, it's safe for X3D CPUs, and asus BIOS allows for good tweakings, just keep in mind it's not fully white, more like silverish, still looks great, good VRMs for pretty much any CPU, and good hearsinks, connectivity wise is good, not great, but if you need a lot of USB ports, just get something else. The manual is also easy to understand, but I wouldn't recommend building without a tutorial. Can handle high speed memory, and the heat sinks are beefy for your primary SSD, BIOS is easy to update and shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes. Overall great if it's on sale or you want some entry level ROG experience.

First off — yeah, it’s marketed as a white motherboard, and mostly it is… but you do get some black undertones in the PCB and components. Not a dealbreaker, still looks slick, but if you’re going for that full white-out build, just know it’s not pure white like the newer revision that came out later (where even the base PCB is fully white). That said, it feels premium. RGB zones are fully customizable, tons of headers and connectors, CPU socket install was smooth, and everything from unboxing to setup felt like handling a high-end product. What you see in the listing photos is exactly what you get. Now the cons — and this is why I’m knocking off a star: 1. The included Wi-Fi antenna is black. It just… clashes. For a board that leans into the white aesthetic, I was honestly surprised they didn’t throw in a matching white or at least gray antenna. Tiny detail? Sure. But if you’re building a color-themed rig, it stands out. 2. No optical audio out. That really threw me. I get that digital audio is moving to USB and HDMI, but come on — this is a top-tier gaming board. If you’re running high-end speakers or older AV gear with optical input, you’re out of luck. And yeah, maybe I should’ve caught that in the specs, but still — feels like a strange omission at this level. Overall: it’s powerful, it’s pretty, it performs. But for a board this expensive, missing basics like color-matched accessories and optical out kinda takes away from the experience.

Received the item with perfect condition

Excellent

The ASUS ROG Strix B650-A Gaming WiFi is one of those boards that hits a sweet spot for Ryzen builders who want premium features without wandering into overkill territory. It’s got that clean white Strix look that pairs nicely with themed builds and the layout is super friendly for first time AM5 users. Performance is rock solid with good VRMs for boosting Ryzen 7000 chips and the BIOS is classic ASUS which means easy tuning and reliable memory support. You get plenty of I/O, fast WiFi, PCIe 5 on the storage side, and enough fan headers to make a serious airflow setup. Overall it feels like a board built for gamers and creators who want stability, style, and room to grow.
