Motherboard ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-A Gaming WiFi D4 is the minimum acceptable option for those users who want to join the owners of ROG STRIX products, and also please themselves not only with the nominal operating mode of the system, but also with a very tangible overclocking of memory modules. Processor overclocking strongly depends on the cooling system, but even if the standard power consumption limits are removed, there will be no problems with overheating of the power subsystem, even in a completely passive mode of its operation.

The design of the motherboard has been significantly updated in comparison with its predecessor in the face of ROG STRIX Z590-E Gaming WiFi. This applies in general to everything except color – the design of the radiators and decorative panels, the number of ports / slots / interfaces and their location on the board, the power subsystem and its cooling system.

The MSI MAG B560M Mortar WIFI is also worth praising for the competent layout of the elements (there is enough space for installing even a dimensional cooler of the Noctua NH-D15S chromax.black level ), a large number of USB of different versions on the rear panel and light indicators that notify the user about problems with starting ( CPU, DRAM, Boot and VGA). There are no hot buttons for turning on / restarting the PC on the board.

This BIOSTAR Z590I VALKYRIE is built around Intel’s new chipset , the Z590. This motherboard retains the LGA-1200 socket from the Z490 chipset which will allow you to reuse your cooling system if you wish to upgrade your configuration. As a reminder, the LGA-1200 socket is different from the LGA-1151 since we go from 1151 pin to 1200 pin at the socket.

We have a solid platform for gamers. It perfectly meets the needs of the latest titles without worrying about the level of graphics settings. With everything at maximum, the framerate in 1440p is between 95 and 163 frames per second which is perfect. We consider 90 frames per second to be the upper limit for high end hardware. The switch to 4K has consequences since the number of images per second drops. We have a framerate between 62 and 112.2 fps. The results are still positive, we remain above 60 images per second.

The changes that took place between ASUS TUF Gaming Z490-PLUS WiFi and ASUS TUF Gaming Z590-PLUS WiFi can hardly be called significant, apart from the issue of the chipset itself, of course, the exact characteristics of which can be found in the next paragraph. The ASUS TUF family of motherboards has undergone radical changes over the course of many years, but is currently sticking to the proven course of the second iteration of the LGA 1151 platform and Intel Z270 chipsets.

This benchmark is based on the classic ROG MAXIMUS XIII Extreme. With one difference, the presence of a monoblock bundle. This one also bears the reference EK-Quantum Momentum ROG Maximus XIII Extreme Glacial D-RGB Plexi . We are on a motherboard with an LGA1200 socket on the Intel Z590 chipset . It is therefore able to accommodate Intel Core processors such as the Rocket Lake-S: i9-11900K and the i5-11600K that we tested as well as 10th generation CPUs such as the i9-10900K or the i5-10600K . It accepts DDR4 memory up to a frequency of 5333 MHz (OC) for a total capacity of 128 GB on four slots. Good point, the rear connection offers two Thunderbolt 4 ports.

ASUS ROG Maximus XIII Extreme is the flagship of the Maximus XIII series among, so to speak, classic motherboards. There is also a version of Glacial , which differs not only in design (it is made in white), but in the cooling system – its design uses a full-coverage water block, a cooling processor, its power subsystem, a network controller and an SSD-drive, as well as a chipset. And from its predecessor in the face of ROG Maximus XII Extreme, the novelty differs in general in everything, since the requirements of the 11th generation Intel Core processors are radically different from those of the 10th generation. What does the manufacturer offer us and what can be done about it? Let’s find out now!

To come back to the model to which we are going to devote this article, the ROG Strix Z590-E, it is currently available at 399 euros at LDLC while the Hero version is available for 512 euros and the APEX version at 549 euros. We can therefore consider that this Strix Z590-E represents entry level in the “Republic of Gamers ” series even if my “F” version is still 50 euros cheaper by ignoring certain options such as the led debug screen . On the other hand, by looking a little, it is available at 329 euros at Alternate and there, it is a very interesting price!
