Hi,

I think so only the Maximus XI (because only the Maximus XI have Armoury Crate apps), Strix Z390, PRIME Z390 & TUF Z390 are not concerned for now.

Not sure how I feel about this. Asus, while having some of the most talented hardware designers out there, has got to produce some of the worst software I have ever had the displeasure of working with. I wouldn’t want this installing any of the proprietary Asus garbage on any of my new builds.

I couldn't agree more. It's time to spend some cash on your programming department ASUS.

it's good enough to get your system up and running but it won't be the lastest and greatest (sooner or later)
this will just unnecessary add to your already probably bloated or soon to be driver store
