I don’t get why people love this mobo. It has bad vrms, and the tomahawk/mortar is better for cheaper.

That ain't true. Just naming a few high end ssds and naming them best SSD for gaming isn't enough. Also, there are gen4 ssds which are faster than the ssds mentioned in that link.

IDK, they just go fr the brand name 'ASUS'. Also, aesthetically they look slightly better than the competition. Though they have bad vrms.

I rarely recommend Samsung ssds. They are way overpriced. A good Phison e12 drive performs similar for less cost.

 

Visit this link and get something from tier B/C.

 

If you haven't purchased any parts, then I can make a much better list fr the same price.

Gigabyte Aorus NVMe Gen4 is the best hands down, though at a costly $200-$400+. It looks awesome with that hunk of pure copper.

For HEDT, ASUS Mobos performs better, though not for mid-range. The mortar, tomahawk perform better at mid ranges. Only the ASUS ROG Zenith II Extreme Alpha or ASUS Maximus XII Extreme are the good one's

Same here, new parts are coming and you shouldn't be buying any parts right now, but instead wait for prices to drop or new components to come out.

There are other Phison e16 drives that perform equally as good.

Yup, I agree, ASUS is great for high end mobos. But they suck at mid range ones. MSI has got some great b450 motherboards out there.

I don't think so. In the current situation, most of the companies have shut down because of the ongoing pandemic. I don't think the launches will be anytime soon.

Even right now, you can observe the scarcity of PC parts. Because of which their prices have sky rocketed.
