The Z790 Riptide WiFi has features that make more expensive boards look average.
THIS LATEST Z790 refresh board is part of ASRock’s Phantom Gaming lineup. At £250, it’s an affordable option that comes with out-of-the-box support for Intel’s 14th Gen processors, though it supports 12th and 13th Gen processors as well.
You could argue that these new Z790 motherboards are the same as their predecessors with barely a lick of paint. But if you’re upgrading from a system that’s a few years old, then Z790 refresh motherboards have a lot of appeal. They include the latest connectivity features, electrical refinements, and support for fast memory. And although many models have taken yet another step up in price, that doesn’t apply here. The ASRock Z790 Riptide still offers a lot for your money.
