The PG Velocita is easily one of the most colorful Z590 boards that we’ve seen to date. Various shades of gray laid over a black PCB with red highlights give the motherboard an eye-catching appearance exaggerated by aRGB lights. It’s more flair than I like, personally, but gamers looking for something flashy to mount behind a tempered-glass panel should be delighted.

Back in 2020 ASRock introduced their first “PG Velocita” motherboard with the Z490 PG Velocita and now they are back with a fresh Z590 version. Velocita translates to speed and the Z590 PG Velocita sits at the top of ASRock’s Phantom Gaming line. This board has that sleek Phantom Gaming look we know from ASRock and it is loaded with features as well. You have a 12+2 power phase design, Killer wireless (WiFi 6E) and wired (2.5 GbE) networking, and all of the other great features from the Z590 chipset like USB 3.2 gen 2×2 support and PCI-Express 4.0. Let’s take a look and see what this board is all about!

The Z590 PG Velocita is an iterative update, just like most other Z590-based motherboards. The latest version uses a Killer-based 2.5 GbE and Wi-Fi 6E network stack, adds a front panel USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C port, premium Realtek audio codec (though it is last generation’s flagship), three M.2 sockets and more. We’ll dig into these details and other features below. But first, here are the full specs from ASRock.

The ASRock Z590 PG Velocita is part of the relatively new Velocita product family. It aims to appeal to gamers looking for a premium tier gaming board without wanting to shell out the big dollars for things like add-in cards, water blocks, or 10G Lan. It sits below the Taichi and above the mainstream lines in ASRock’s product stack; think of it like Asus’ TUF Gaming range of boards.
The X570 Velocita and the Z490 Velocita were well received. But does the new Z590 flavour have what it takes to compete in a cut-throat competitive market?

Let’s start with the good. We like the general layout, colour scheme (surprisingly), and appreciate the attention paid to larger VGA cards through the bundled holder. Power delivery is robust, heatsinks extremely well-built, and enough onboard buttons and fans to sate enthusiasts’ needs.
But we’d prefer a richer I/O panel, more 20Gbps USB, full-speed AVX by default, and a dual 2.5G networking suite from Intel.
We’d therefore recommend ASRock drop the price of this board down to, say, £250, given our conclusions. At that price point, with due consideration of the competition, the Z590 PG Velocita becomes decent instead of reasonable.

Z590 PG Velocita is one of the first boards to come through with the new Intel chipset without deploying Thunderbolt 4. ASRock looks to offset this with 10 USB ports, gigabit LAN and 2.5Gbe all on the rear I/O. Additionally, this is the first motherboard in the office to have the Killer AX1675 chipset, which includes Bluetooth 5.2 and that 2.5Gbe we mentioned above, features Killer E3100G with a direct PCIe link to the CPU for lower latency.

ASRock signs a solid Z590 platform with this Z590 PG Velocita. Aiming at the top of the range, its benefits are up to the mark whether we are talking about performance or equipment. Its sleek look is intended primarily for gaming platforms in search of the latest technologies.
We don’t have much to fault this Z590 PG Velocita. Its UEFI BIOS offers an airy and fairly well-organized interface. The OC of our Core i9-10900K did not pose any problem with in the end a nice performance gain. It might be a shame that faster Ethernet isn’t present.
