ASUS TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS WIFI D4 – Overclocking

by

When the first Z690 DDR4 motherboards were released, Asus and MSI dominated the sales. Despite some initial memory compatibility issues, BIOS updates have corrected the issues over time. The latest, namely version 1504, was released in early June 2022. With a manufacturer follow-up still ongoing, the board certainly hasn’t said its last word, despite the upcoming launch of Z790 motherboards. Let’s see if like a good wine, the TUF Gaming for Intel Alder Lake has improved over time.

ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-I GAMING WIFI – Comptoir Hardware

After ASRock’s version , it’s Asus’ turn to show us what it can do best in the mini-ITX format – the only representative in this format – with its ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming WiFi. The manufacturer is particularly targeting players with its motherboard, hence the term “Gaming” in its name (yes, yes). Intended for Alder Lake processors in LGA 1700 socket, this ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming WiFi appears in any case to be very complete, at least on paper: DDR5 and PCI-Express 5.0 are thus in the spotlight, alongside a multitude other state-of-the-art features. Head to the test bench to dissect this mobo.

A high-end motherboard, equipped with large VRM and gaming oriented that can be found in the 540 euros at the best price.

ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-I GAMING WIFI – HardwareCooking

by

On a Mini-ITX format, this motherboard can therefore be placed in very specific boxes such as the MasterBox NR200P style from Cooler Master or even in the Phanteks Evolv SHIFT XT. We are here on the Intel LGA1700 socket, which means that it is compatible with 12th generation Intel Core processors such as the i5-12600K, i7-12700K, i9-12900K and generally anything that starts with “12”. . Likewise, here we have compatibility with DDR5 type memory up to a frequency of 6400 MHz in OC. Attention, we only have two memory slots and we can therefore only go up to 64 GB of RAM capacity at most.

ASUS ROG STRIX B660-I GAMING WIFI – Tom’s Hardware

by

The Asus ROG Strix B660-I Gaming WIFI may be the first Mini-ITX B660 board to land on our test bed, but it doesn’t disappoint. While the name may be a lot to get out, the price (for an ITX board) isn’t. Priced just under $220, it sits in the middle of other similar ITX boards and presents users with a well-rounded option in this space. The board comes loaded with features, including a PCIe 5.0 slot, dual M.2 sockets, last-gen flagship-class audio, integrated Wi-Fi 6 and the Asus ROG appearance that many love. In all, it’s a feature-rich ITX board at a reasonable price.

ASUS ProArt Z690-CREATOR WIFI – APH Networks

by

Today’s review unit of the ASUS ProArt Z690-Creator WiFi arrived from ASUS’ offices in Newark, California. Traveling with FedEx and their 2Day International service, this box arrived in excellent condition with no real areas of concern. Inside, we have quite a bit of packing paper to ensure the contents are protected while inside. In addition to the motherboard, ASUS sent us their ZenWiFi AX Hybrid mesh router, which my colleague Jonathan Kwan will be taking a look at later on.

ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z690 HERO – AnandTech

by

As it stands, ASUS has a pretty big stack of Z690 motherboards catering to multiple markets. This includes its Prime series for its entry-level users looking to build an affordable yet still adept system. In contrast, the ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) series primarily targets gamers and enthusiasts. The ASUS ROG motherboard series is split into two main areas, the ROG Strix series for gamers, and the high-end ROG Maximus series for enthusiasts looking for the best performance, the best feature sets, and, as we’ve seen throughout the years, some pretty modernized and RGB inspired aesthetics.
