Relative to computing (or gaming) performance, it has the lowest power consumption at factory settings. And the ROG Strix Z790-A Gaming WiFi II also sits among the more modern motherboards available for the Intel LGA 1700 platform. It’s already from the “second wave”, where network connectivity has been upgraded (to WiFi 7) and for example the support for DIMM Flex, useful for memory with extremely high bandwidth, is also new.

Upozornenie: On the LGA 1700 platform, in the reduced power mode (IPL) to the long-term 125 W level, we observe lower computing performance than it was with older BIOSes since December last year. The power consumption is indeed as expected, but that’s with inefficient clock speed management. Within it, the E cores get more space (manifested by their higher clock speeds) than the P cores, for which there is not much left. This typically results in very low clock speeds (of the P cores of the test CPU model).

Test environment: We use well distributed projects BMW (510 tiles) and Classroom (2040 tiles) and the renderer Cycles. Render settings are set to None, with which all the work falls on the CPU.
