What are peoples' thoughts on the Asus Prime Z790-P/V Wifi? (alien.top)

So...I've been trying to plan a build and was about to pull the trigger on either a 12900k or 13700k (microcenter bundles), but when I looked at the reviews of the motherboards included (similar motherboard in both bundles, 12900k has the V, 13700k has the P), I started noticing that some of the reviews were bad. While they dont look AS bad as what a lot of the AMD bundles are dealing with, it's enough to give me pause to buy.

So...how bad is this model? Is it really as bad as some people say it is? What are your experiences with it? The other parts of the bundle look great, it's mostly the motherboard on this one that looks sketchy.

EDIT: 12900k bundle: https://www.microcenter.com/product/5006593/intel-core-i9-12900k,-asus-z790-v-prime-wifi-ddr5,-gskill-ripjaws-s5-32gb-kit-ddr5-6000,-computer-build-bundle

13700k bundle: https://www.microcenter.com/product/5006461/intel-core-i7-13700k,-asus-z790-p-prime-wifi-ddr5,-gskill-32gb-ddr5-6000-kit,-computer-build-bundle

ASUS isn’t what it once was. Lots of people having all sorts of issues with them.

MSI or Asrock seem like solid choices.

Yeah but the bundles I'm looking at are ASUS or bust. Theres an MSI one with a 14700k for a bit more but it doesnt even come ready for 14th gen so...

And AMD just seems to be a flat out nightmare with their bundles.

I just built with the i7-13700k and asus z790-p wifi.

It's been money and have had no issues. I did not install armoury crate though. Bought all corsair fans and just use icue for my rgb.
