I've had this motherboard for only 3 months, bought it from MicroCenter, and very rarely use my computer as it is. I do very light computing on it, mostly assignments for school and some occasional Rocket League. A friend of mine was able to get me an amazing deal on an ROG B850, so I couldn't turn it down.

Runs fantastic and is basically like brand new still. Also has Manufacturer's Warranty on it from ASUS. Works with AMD 9000 series, just need to update the BIOS as I did a full factory reset and cleared the CMOS.

If you have any questions about the board please feel free to let me know!
