ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XIII APEX – Overclocking

by

Let’s start the owner’s tour with the radiators of which there are four! First, the three radiators located on the top of the motherboard and which surrounds the socket. The two most imposing cover the supply floor. These two radiators are connected by a heat pipe.

A third, smaller, and also connected via a heat pipe is responsible for keeping the dedicated power supply stage for VCCSA / VCCIO cool. We are here on a completely passive system. The radiator bearing the name APEX is composed of two parts and hides under the upper part a slot for an M2 PCIe 4.0 type SSD.

MSI MEG Z590 ACE – Overclocking

by

This MSI MEG Z590 ACE is built around Intel’s new chipset , the Z590. It is part of the “MSI MEG” series which represents the top of the range of the brand. 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.

GIGABYTE Z590I AORUS ULTRA – eTeknix

by

Gigabyte has gone with a 10-layer PCB which is more than you will find on most motherboards, especially mini-ITX ones. Combine this with the 90A Phases, plenty of thermal reducing options and you’ve got yourself a worthy ITX board. We all know AORUS is aimed more at the premium side of things and they surely have not let us down. Trying to fit everything you want on an ITX board is a feat all of its own, but to do that and keep with the high-quality components really shows the lengths Gigabyte went through when designing the Z590I AORUS ULTRA.

MPG Z590 GAMING CARBON WIFI – eTeknix

by

Coming in at £311/$355 at the time of writing this, the MSI MPG Z590 Gaming Carbon WIFI has quite a lot to offer for the price. As with most PC components, motherboard prices are creeping up these days. While this isn’t the cheapest Z590 board, it offers plenty of bang for the buck and has some additional features that others don’t. Looking at similarly priced boards from competitors, this one has a couple of extra features that aren’t seen on all making the cost just that much more bearable.

ASUS ROG STRIX Z590-I GAMING WIFI – eTeknix

by

There’s not a whole lot of included accessories in the box, but it should be just enough for most people. Alongside our manuals and driver CD, we have some stickers which hopefully some of will be useful, our WIFI antenna, some SATA cables, Zip ties, RGB splitter and a lovely little front panel extender that will plug directly into the motherboard, then we can plug our power/reset button cables and the likes into it. This will make our lives much easier especially as this is an ITX board and once you’ve got your RAM, GPU and CPU cooler installed, there generally isn’t a whole lot of finger room to go plugging stuff in.
