Lack of SATA-Express…
Lack of SATA-Express… That’s not a con.
I have yet to see one single
I have yet to see one single sata express device on the market.
This board is all positive
This board is all positive for me:
– I am happy to see a board WITHOUT sata express – A useless added expense
– Could not care less about any RGB lighting – just an unnecessary added expense.
– My Memory will be less than 3866 MHz
So all good
Has Asus completely dropped
Has Asus completely dropped Alpine Ridge for Z270 ? They had it on the Maximus Formula for Z170.
For this board, it looks like
For this board, it looks like it, but not sure about the rest of them…
Haven’t been able to find
Haven’t been able to find one… maybe it’s unjustified, but for me Asmedia and premium don’t go together.

ASUS supports TBIII via theThunderbolt EX III add in card. This is done via firmware and PCH design support. All that is required is connecting the corresponding cable from the TB header to the card and you are good.

Is the CMOS battery thing a joke?
I see that as a pro or con in every review. At first I thought you were joking, but now I’m thinking you are serious. What a miniscule issue. My current build is 3+ years old and still on the original CMOS battery.
Not a joke, a minor
Not a joke, a minor inconvenience and pet peeve of mine. You normally don't have to mess with the battery, but when you do, its a PITA if you have to take apart half your system to get to it…
Remember having to do this
Remember having to do this last year on an older system it really was a pain!
Looks like a lot of reviewers are liking the Strix z270e, have read a few and they all seem to speak highly… Off to amazon I go 🙂

This is perhaps the worst review I’ve seen on this site. Hopefully it was from an unpaid freelancer.
