## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have ddr5 6400mhz cl32 memory, do I need to change settings to lower the speed of ram? am I able to get pc start? or I need to do something in bios**
A: if you want the XMP to work with your ram, go to the Asus website and look up your board. In the support section of that board click on the CPU/Memory support tab, then click on memory. in that section it will tell you if the memory you have is certified to work with their board. If it is, go into the bios (make sure it's updated to the newest version) and turn on the XMP1 setting. It should all work from there (unless there is a ram problem) the z790 boards look like they have XMP up to 7800mhz. 6400mhz should work without a problem

**Q: Does this have the same ilm[intelligent loading mechanism] issue as the 690? if so, i am going to avoid this since i don't want a bent cpu.**
A: I bought CPU contact Frame and problem solved. No more bent CPU

**Q: Can I use an MSI SPATIUM M570 on the motherboard?**
A: Maybe? You might need to remove the heatink on it, as the motherboard has a cover and also a specific spot for it. The workaround would be to use a PCIE extension if you really wanted to use that NVMe

**Q: Which USB port is for the keyboard and which is for the mouse?**
A: For keyboard and mouse any of them as they do not require extreme speeds. 5 Gbps speed became USB 3.2 Gen 1 and the 10 Gbps speed became USB 3.2 Gen 2 and the 20 Gbps speed became USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. The 20 Gbps speed is called USB 3.2 Gen 2x2, because it uses two 10 Gbps lanes to give you the 20 Gbps speed. So for mouse and keyboard you won't notice any differences. If you are connective higher demanding devices just make sure to block them when connecting your mouse and keyboard.

Vengo de usar toda mi vida componentes de msi pero está vez decidí armarme una pc completamente con componentes asus, sin duda no me arrepiento de nada y valió cada centavo, muy bonita tarjeta madre con un rendimiento muy bueno. Recomendada totalmente, estética de 10, excelente componente para armar una pc de gama alta y también me gustó mucho la bios de asus.
