It's considered one of the better of the B350 boards.  If you're interested in some research, I've bookmarked a video that is rather informative about the various B350 boards and their VRMs and phases.  The guy is extremely knowledgeable about boards and GPUs.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGrxhf_xZWI

 

TL;DR - Skip to about the 25:45 minute mark where he gives his summary.

The ASUS B350 boards are arguably the best in terms of RAM compatibility and overclockability, with AsRock a close second.

My asus b350 prime just arrived and it will be collecting dust until the stupid hyper 212 AM4 bracket arrives... The video that johndms linked is what convinced me to get the prime. If you're from Canada, the asus rog strix b350-f, which is probably better than the prime, is only around $7 more after mail-in rebate on Newegg.ca
