Of course, there is a slightly more obvious difference, which is that the Z370-E includes silver heatsinks, and in the flesh these do actually look pretty good and make a change from the dark grey or black colour schemes we’ve been seeing of late while still managing to maintain a colour-neutral scheme to complement RGB lighting.

As a Strix board, it has Asus’s now standard color neutral layout that uses black and gray, RGB lighting, and the angular Strix look.

It should be a robust overclocker as well, supporting up to 4266+(OC) memory, and running a Digital PWM 10 Power Phase design for the CPU.
