ASUS TUF GAMING X570 PLUS
Could this be the best Budget X570 board? I was watching the latest Buildzoid video and he was doing a breakdown of the X570 Strix-F and in the video he said that the Strix-F ($300 Rumored Price) has the same VRM setup as the Tuf ($170 Rumored Price).
Could this end up being the next TOMAHAWK? Really good for the price to performance? He even talks about buying himself a Tuf in the video. I'm thinking about picking one up with the 3700x if reviews back up his claims.

I doubt it, probably Aorus Elite and maybe Asrock Steel Legend for budget builds since it has ALC1220/Intel LAN and also 8 DrMOs which is good enough for 8 cores.
SiliconLottery has Aorus Elite on their QVL.
Additionally due to the PWM layout you downscale your power at idle better because you can run 2 powerstage rather than a minimum of 3.
TUF = ASP1106 PWM, 3 SiC639 powerstages on each PWM phase
Aorus Elite = ISL PWM with 6 phases doubled to 12 via ISL6617 and using SiC634 powerstages

im hoping to swap mine in here this week
first impressions
it has some weight to it, that is always a good sign, not some lightweight pos
the various components seem solid on the board
hoping to have a nice simple swap out
update . . .
swapped in the new board with ram and a 2700x 50th anni . . .
no post
called tech support . . . needs a bios update to run that chip
baffled that a brand new board a few weeks old would need a bios update for a gen2 ryzen

Sorry to see that. You still be able to flash the bios with a newer one using this procedure:

With that procedure you didn’t need to post... even with a black screen it would flash it you just have to wait a bit in the dark... anyways, glad asus is taking care if you.

Nice. Also Buildzoid (from actually hardcore overclocking on youtube) talks good about this mobo. He says the VRM's are fine for up to a 3950x. It's just 4 phases, tripled= 12+2, but good quality.

once i get the board back and get everything installed/configured, ill see what i can get out of the 2700x 50th that i picked up on sale
wont be a full blown guide per se, more of this is the config that worked for 'x' oc ect.
Wired Internet
Is anyone experiencing intermittent internet speeds with this motherboard.
I updated the driver to the latest one on the Asus site for this board.
I have a 1gig up and down. But for some reason this board is not steady with it. And it doesn't reach 1 gig downloads.
Might it be the driver?
My previous motherboard (Crosshair VII Hero) didn't have this issue.

Crosshair VII Hero has an Intel i211AT LAN. The TUF PLUS has a proprietary-to-ASUS realtek LAN.
Normally you'd be able to pull it off https://www.realtek.com/en/componen...0-1000m-gigabit-ethernet-pci-express-software
For this board you should probably use the one off ASUS's support page here: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/TUF-GAMING-X570-PLUS-WI-FI/HelpDesk_Download/. (https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/...H1_SZ_TSD_W10_64_VER10355102019_20190801R.zip) It's probably a driver issue.

my current rig is a sabertooth 990 and it get 700-900 on my speed tests all day long
could also be the server speedtest picks . . .

Day time/hours the CPU idle temp go up to 34-36 Celsius.
All this is while computer is idling. Only have Ryzen Master open on screen viewing the numbers.
Just felt like sharing.
