Make Future Motherboard Feature Suggestions Here!

[xeromist]

Hi all,

ASUS ROG is requesting our best suggestions for ROG product improvements. As a moderator I won’t have the ability to implement your suggestions but I will be picking some of the best to highlight for the ROG team so they know what matters to us, the community.

Some guidelines for this thread:
1) Keep it positive and constructive. In most of the forum I try to allow you all to express your thoughts freely (within reason). This thread has the express purpose of generating constructive suggestions so I will be moderating this thread and deleting posts that do not contribute to that goal.
2) Keep it concise and on topic. Some minor discussion regarding a specific suggestion is welcome but if you would like to have a longer conversation I ask you start an additional thread and link it in your post here. You can also request a moderator move your posts if you have need.
3) Try for realistic ideas that appeal broadly to gamers. A small improvement on an existing ROG product is much more likely to get chosen than an entirely new product that only matters to a small number of people.
4) Support your favorites! You don’t have to come up with a suggestion to help. If you see something you like, quote it and say so! More support for an idea improves its chances.

EDIT:
I’ve updated the titles for these feedback threads to reflect that this is primarily for *future* products. Sorry for the lack of clarity. While there is a chance some ideas could be implemented via software updates it’s most likely any suggestions would be rolled into new products.
Also, these threads are not for issue reporting and such posts won’t reach the right people. Please post issues in the ROG Care > Hardware & Software Support section. Or contact ASUS support via phone or email for immediate assistance.

Upgrade DisplayPort to 2.1

Fix the issue with; ADVANCED>SYSTEM AGENT CONFIGUARATION>PRIMARY DISPLAY>

I've ran into an issue with the my Z690-E bios splash screen not showing up prior to booting Windows 11. The issue is very simple and related to the bios settings ADVANCED>SYSTEM AGENT CONFIGUARATION>PRIMARY DISPLAY>CPU. I have tried multiple times to change the setting from CPU to PCI-E and even AUTO. Each time the system reverts the setting back to CPU. This only allows me to enter bios whilst changing my DisplayPort from the GPU to the motherboards on board graphics via CPU.

You can post windows via onboard graphics and install the GPU drivers. After that, I'm able to boot the computer and it will post windows via GPU. However I have to plug the display cable into the motherboard every time I need to register the splash screen to enter bios. I'm currently seeking information on how to fix the BIOS issue.

Hy.
Please add a BIOS option to control the PCH fan speed (as the others fans).
Or a way to do this with AI Fan controler.
The PCH fan is a little bit too noisy and I don't want to use some "tweaked BIOS"...
Thanks.

my 2c:

1. At least one more fan curve point for better control over fan speed
2. thermistor input should be on all motherboards with overclocking capabilities, especially now that water cooling is becoming a necessity.
3. Better BIOS documentation (especially when meaning of auto changes from version to version), warning if bios update cannot be reverted

My new z690EG has no way to swap bios versions except by using the button on the motherboard itself. There’s no way to change bios chips via the bios which needs to be implemented again and standard for all ROG boards. With my vertical gpu mount in place, I can’t get to the switch to change bios chips.

will the Rampage Extreme line ever return? Like for Raptor Lake and Meteor Like CPU's , Hiya Hopper, long time no see

[Hopper64]

Been around. Switched to z590 and now z690. Big improvement over my rampage boards. Loved those too though. 🙂

For the love of GOD why is there still no option in the bios to disable M2 NVME Drives? Please forward this as I have the Strix Z690 Gaming A with 4 M2 Slot and I have them all filled I then proceeded to try and install Windows 11 and it will not allow me to install Windows 11 with multiple SSD's/NVME's attached I had to remove every single M2 Drive from the motherboard and pull of the thermal material from my brand new 980 Pro's.

Do the BIOS team know how much a pain in the ass this is? This is not a new issue it has been going on since M2 and SSD drives existed and the issue of trying to install a clean OS to one of these drives, Why is it so difficult to implement a bios switch to completely disable SSD's and M22 drives?

Perhaps consider releasing boards that actually run memory in all four sockets at the advertised speeds
Z690 is proving a nightmare for memory - now is that down to the board and bios or the memory ?

I ask as I see loads of issues relating to memory on z690, far more than is usual or normal for a new platform.
Before looking for suggestions about new features I’d suggest actually getting the current ones advertised to do as it says on the box tbh
Once that has been achieved only then should you look at adding new bells and whistles - that my penneth*

Sorry may incorrect forum but there are something ASUS must be urgently fixing all motherboards.

1. ROG DIMM.2 were useless on next Intel 600/700 Series chipset especially ADL-X / SPR -AP.
Could ASUS redesign NVME SSDs PCIE 4.0/5.0 seat like Gigabyte or Asrocks ?
It will better to replace ROG DIMM.2 slot with more DDR5 slots. The place of ROG DIMM.2 bring more heat
when system running. If you running 24/7 the place of ROG DIMM.2 may reduce lifespan of your NVME SSD.





ROG DIMM.2 position from picture above when system running.
Both DIMM.1 and DIMM.2 NVME SSDs were very hot!
( Would you please see underline drives )
It may reduce lifespan of both NVME SSDs.

2. First and Third PCI E x 16 Slot must be far from motherboard logo and buttom of the board for support 4 Slot card such as
RTX 3090Ti / ADA LOVER / HOPPER RTX / AMD RDNA 3 79XTX / Intel Arc 900 Series etc. GPU TDP may go beyond 600W under
Intel ATX 3.0 standard.

3. Redesign VRM heat spreader for Cover ADL-X (16-24 C) / SPR - AP (26-36C ) up to 270 - 350 W TDP.

and the last

" Please do not place CMOS battery just like ASUS RAMPAGE VI Extreme again. It was very terrible and ugly design.
So sad for users whom choose custom loop setup. They'll need to re-build their system for changing CMOS battery only!

😞OMG! Who was the R6E design ? "

OMG WHO DESIGN ROG RAMPAGE VI EXTREME CMOS Battery placement!? (asus.com)
