Capable 14-phase VRM, Premium audio implementation, ROG good looks,
Higher price than similarly equipped competition, No onboard buttons for power/reset
The Asus ROG Strix Z490-E gaming performed well in most tests, is a capable overclocker and offers good looks as well.But there are similarly equipped (or better) boards at around this price point or for a little less...
I've been writing a lot about the price level of Z490 boards, 299 USD is still a lot of money for a motherboard I think it's safe to say that for the Z490 STRIX this is a reasonable sum of money at best. You get that nice power delivery, awesome looks, an...

The launch for the Z490s was interesting for us. Normally we start off with the ASUS Prime and move into more upper range motherboards as we go along until we reach the apex - the peak, not the ASUS motherboard. This time around we got the beefy flagship...

I am sure many of you are as eager as I am to see just how well this new generation of Intel Core processors stacks up to the Red competition. 10 months is a long wait to see the Blue team's counter to Ryzen 3000 and unfortunately, the wait isn't quite o...

Apart from some strange overclocking behaviour, the ROG Strix Z490-E Gaming was a solid performer and offers some useful features for the cash. Our views on aesthetics are subjective, but we do think it looks great. The VRM fan is a handy addition, althou...

This board is right in that sweet spot between the flagship boards and the budget ones. Actually, it's price is a little bit lower than that. However, this is a LOT of motherboard for the money, offering enthusiast levels of overclocking hardware, huge he...
Comes with a nice set of included accessories, Aggressive aesthetics will go well with a full-on gaming build, Strong power delivery system, Supports iGPU output, Q-CODE readout allows for more convenient troubleshooting, Very feature-rich BIOS
No on-board power buttons discourages bench setups, AI overclocking could do with more finetuning options, Installation process of the first M.2 SSD is unnecessarily difficult, Overpriced relative to its more premium brethren
With such a lofty price tag, the ROG Strix Z490-E Gaming faces stiff competition from the higher tier ROG Maximus XII boards...
The ASUS ROG Strix Z490-E Gaming motherboard is an outstanding motherboard that prioritizes achieving top-tier performance and build quality in a mid-range Z490 segment that simply other motherboard vendors couldn't compete. Unless you're looking at the e...
