My previous experience with the X99 Rampage V Edition 10 was less than stellar. Even though it was stable, it sometimes had random crashes, BIOS updates were sparse and to top it off, the DAC it came with didn't even work for reasons not even ASUS knew, even after days of viewing forums and trying strange 'possible fixes' that I found. However, the experience with this motherboard is a vastly different experience.
Firstly, it's stable out-of-the box, but it only gets better with the BIOS updates (I'm currently running 2203) and I can't remember the last time I crashed (apart from when I overclock and stress-test). Temps are comfortable (as low as they can get in the humid, hot environment that is Costa Rica), the OSD is useful for when you're gaming and don't want to alt-tab (a minor use, but still appreciated), and the integrated waterblocks, NVMe heat spreader and overclocking stability is just icing on the cake. A 5GHz all-core overclock is easily achievable with my 8086k (1.315V), and I'm sure I could get it down if I tried finding the settings I had before (1.280V), but that took literal weeks of strenuous testing and adjusting, so I just tend to leave it where it is. Oh, and for the record, I haven't yet delidded my 8086k, so there's still room to work with.
Overall, a true joy to have and overclock with, even if you do take a hit to the wallet.
UPDATE April 18th 2021
I got a 9900K a couple of months ago and I just popped it in (my BIOS was up-to-date) and it works great. I haven't seen a single bottleneck and it's been a breeze. Might try OC'ing it when I get the chance.
Edit: The MB died in 2020 when OC'ing the 9900K. Even ASUS didn't repair it, they just sent me a new one after I RMA'd it. I tried easier overclocks on this one but it seems to have taken a hit since my PC is stuttering super often now.
-Integrated liquid cooling for VRMs
-Extra support backplate (to really give you that beefy yet safe feeling)
-LCD screen (not necessary but a nice extra feature to have and monitor those CPU temps)
My first ASUS mobo ever but everyone else seems to support them and after a year of using mine so do I. Not one issue with it while running a non-delidded 8700k (overclocked to 5.0Ghz). BIOS is super easy to navigate if you want to really fine tune your settings. Otherwise with a few clicks you can have the BIOS pick optimized settings (based off your input to a few questions) or use one of ASUS's presets.
One other thing I'll add is I really love the constant updates from ASUS's support page in regards to drivers/downloads for everything just to always keep their product and features up-to-date.
Only thing I'm not really keen on is the RGB Aura Sync software. It works just fine for me but feels restricted on options. Also say if you want to use Corsair or TT RGB fans you will either need a controller to adapt them for Aura Sync or you will have to run separate software to control them.
One last thing I'll add is that if you are buying a Formula but have no intention of utilizing the integrated liquid cooling you might as well save yourself a few $$$ and hop to the next model below. Minus the VRM cooling, metal back support and I'm not sure if any other models have the LCD, all the remaining features are the same.
Overall minus the high (but justifiable) price tag this thing is great and never given me any issues.

Top reviews from other countries
Now, as for the actual motherboard. I'm using it with an i9-9900k, overclocked to 5GHz. The board itself doesn't seem to have an issue doing that, but I lost the silicon lottery when it came to the i9-9900k, so the temperatures when stress testing it are pretty high (Prime95, etc). Under real world stress loads (like encoding with x264, placebo settings), the temperatures are completely reasonable. This is all air cooled via Noctua, and the VRM temperatures seem to be under control as well, despite this board being designed for water cooling.
The motherboard has BIOS flashback, which means you'll be able to flash it with the latest BIOS supporting 9th generation Intel CPUs without a currently working 8th gen CPU already in your system. I also am glad that I couldn't find stock of the Hero, because the Formula has the metal brace at the back and feels really solid. I have an m.2 SSD in this, and I have not had durability issues with the m.2 shield as some other reviewers had. However, I was careful with it as I was cautious from the other reviews.
I chose the Z370 chipset as opposed to the Z390 chipset because it is the last consumer level Intel chipset to officially support Windows 7. I had no issues getting everything on the board working and having no missing drivers for anything on the board in the device manager. There are some workarounds to get intel USB controllers Z390 working in Windows 7, but it's difficult and you may end up with a bunch of yellow marks in device manager for various things.
The only thing I dislike about this board is that the shielding at the front is rather unnecessary. I don't believe that it provide any benefit other than aesthetics, and it might even make things hotter. They also make changing out the CMOS battery more difficult.

組んでみての感想:
自分にとっては高価なCPUの組み立てが初めてでしたので、緊張しました。
とくに、ピンを折らないようにとか。
Win10インストール後、動作がすっごいもっさりしてますが、再起動したら爆速でした。
個人的にもhddにoptane memory使って高速化しようとしてるんですけどね。頻繁にデータコピーしたりするので。
ベンチは、まだ回してないので結果はわかりませんが、起動時間は、15-30sぐらいだとおもいます。
メモリやグラボのスペック落とせばはやくなるとおもいます。
別途、前のPCに、ASUS STRIX RAID DLXサウンドカードをつけていたので、オンボードのSupremeFXと比べてみました。
設定すればなんとかなるとおもいますが、
バスの上限が、カードの方がうわまわります。
ただ、音質に関しては、あまり変わりません。
よーく聞き比べると若干違いますが、文章に表す言語力を持ち合わせていないので、体感してみてください、としか言えないです。
パーツ代で、破産寸前なので、optane memoryは今度にします。
muy fácil el actualizar la bios, que se encuentra en la pagina de asus en su ultima version.
PD. el unboxing fue toda una experiencia

本格水冷可能なマザーですが空冷でも可能です。自分は本格水冷できる環境が無いので本格水冷はせず簡易水冷で使っています。
CPUの下のLiveDashには、CPUやPCHの温度や電圧、ファンの回転数など。本格水冷の場合は水流なども表示可能です。LiveDashのソフトウェアに標準で入っているいくつかのGIFに加え、他のGIFも表示可能なようです。
決して安いとは言えませんが、おすすめです。
