ASRockPhantom Gaming Intel Z790I Lightning WiFi DDR5 DIMMs up to 8600+ (OC) MHz 128GB LGA1700 M.2 Mini-ITX Motherboard SATA3 6.0 Gb/s Z790 802.11axe Wi-Fi 6E PCIe 5.0 x16

8600 VT3 retrain stable on my XMP VCOLOR 8600 kit. My Z790 APEX A04 that costs $700 couldn't do what this $250 board did.

Super nice board. BIOS is easy to deal with and everything runs to rated speed. The layout is well thought out. This is an excellent choice for a z790i board!! Performance is even (no glitches), WiFi connects out of the box, just a great board to work with.

In all of days of building computers (since the 90s), I have never had so many problems with a motherboard. I managed to work through most of them, but the sound drivers from 2017!) would not update, nor would the default drivers detect my TV, which is what the whole point of this buid was. I guess I'll save up and buy a mobo from someone reputable.

Great board with everything except Thunderbolt. Wish it had maybe a few more usb inputs.

With my Asus z790i Gaming that had a dram issue in one dimm slot I decided to try out the ASRock PG Z90i. Let me tell you it does not disappoint. It ties into the sff theme without being too beefy like most itx boards are now. It has very solid power delivery stages and can hit rated ddr5 speeds out of the box without binning a board. ASRock has came a long was in the mobo scene. If Asus continues in the direction they are going ASRock will be my go to board mfg. Overclocking, undervolting, and overclocking ram are straight to the point in the bios. No onboard LEDS. Its a fantastic board. I'm going to miss LGA 1700.

Completed build only yesterday, but so far this no frills board has completely met all expectations. The 5600 memory read 5100 in the bios but I wasn't planning to overclock anything so that's satisfactory. Just wanted the capability. Have always had ASUS boards but their z790i seemed like overkill, especially if not overclocking. The ASRock board was a little slower starting Windows than I'm used to. I thought it wasn't reading my keyboard when prompted to "press any key". I kept checking my bios to make sure everything was in order. But I just had to wait it out longer than expected. Otherwise, no glitches.

Bad board
