Software Suite

ASUS has not changed their software bundle with this release but they have been one of the stronger software bundles in the motherboard scene barring the game inclusions or Xsplit subscription extensions from other brands. Still, in-house software is one ASUS’ strong points and their AI Suite 3, GameFirst IV, RamCache II and RAMDisk prove to be some of the more useful software that comes bundled with any motherboard.

      The board rigidity offsets the need for a backplate for the MXH yet for the Aorus7, the sheer weight of the board combined with all the metal in it is just asking for it hence my point of saying its a need

    How about no VRM temp monitoring in the BIOS or in any monitoring software? Rumor is that the early versions had VRM temp available. Then Asus switched a component and no more VRM temp available. It is not listed in the Monitor Tab of the BIOS in your screen shots. The other high-end Asus Z370 boards all include VRM temp in BIOS but not the (current version) of the Hero or Hero WIFI. I would call this a big fat CON.
