How to install Asus ROG MAXIMUS IX EXTREME
- Prepare your workspace with an anti-static mat or wrist strap and ensure the system is powered off before handling the motherboard.
- Install the CPU into the LGA1151 socket, aligning the notches carefully and locking the socket lever into place. Apply thermal paste as recommended by your cooling solution and mount the water-cooling monoblock if you’re using this integration.
- Insert the RAM modules into the correct dual-channel DIMM slots, following the motherboard’s manual for optimal slot configuration. Ensure each module seats firmly with even pressure.
- Attach the M.2 storage drives to the two M.2 slots, securing them with screws. If you’re using both slots, configure BIOS settings to enable PCIe/NVMe for each drive to maximize performance.
- Mount the MAXIMUS IX EXTREME into your case using the appropriate standoffs. Connect the 24-pin ATX, 8-pin CPU, and any additional power connectors. Attach case fans, RGB controllers, and front-panel headers according to the user guide.
- Power on briefly to enter the UEFI BIOS. Update the BIOS to the latest version, enable XMP profiles for memory, and configure Aura Sync if you want synchronized lighting. Fine-tune fan curves and the overclocking profile if desired, then save settings and reboot.
- Install the operating system and drivers, including Intel chipset drivers, network adapters, USB drivers, and any ROG utilities for monitoring and performance tuning.

Tiny but convenient!
Color: White, Color: White
Long review: TLDR; it’s cute, pretty durable, tiny but spacious, and handy!
First, I feel I should mention—it’s very tiny! I didn’t look at the dimensions, so that’s my fault, haha, not taking points off for it lol. It’s not big enough to fit, say an iPad Pro, but maybe a mini! It’s height is probably enough for a small book, and it’s width is definitely enough for a regular sized book. Also the length from back to front of the bag: it’s very thick! So it fits a lot for the size. It fits my about 1.5 inch thick wallet (about 5-6 inches long), my keys, a mini hairbrush, and a bag I use with toiletries like pads/tampons, mini body spray, mini hand cream, a tiny metal wallet with bandaids, hair ties, q-tips, and cotton rounds, and a couple chapsticks. The front pocket is pretty spacious too, as it fits my AirPods with a case and a bunch of keychains and dangly things on it.
The straps are long and adjustable. It looks easy to clean but I haven’t spilled anything or gotten anything on it so it’s a little hard to say. I’ve included a video and pictures for reference!
It came pretty smushed and squashed into a flat little pancake but it only took a little while to go to it’s intended shape. I left it full of stuff to mold it overnight (like if you stuff it gently/loosely with, say, a t-shirt or two overnight, it’ll morph into the right shape)
The puff ball is cute, and it’s staying on pretty well, but the elastic thing holding it on is slowly stretching a little so it doesn’t look like it’s glued on like I liked at first, but it still looks good!
It’s lasted a while now, probably a few months with no issues.
Basically, I like it and it’s handy for going to the mall or store, or if you bring very small stuff to the amusement park. (It won’t fit a water bottle, but it’ll fit smaller stuff)
In the video, I showed me unpacking all the stuff it can fit, and in the first picture is all that stuff. In the second picture I show the size of my 12.9 inch iPad Pro to as comparison, and in the third picture I show how it barely doesn’t fit.
Hope this helps!!

Poor packaging
Color: Gold Pink
Cute backpack, but very poor packaging causes permanent creases in the outer leather material. If this backpack was for myself I would have returned it, but it’s something a 10 yr old will overlook.
