Great review! I think one advantage this has over the AMD boards on the creator side is the inclusion of 10/2.5 ethernet, whereas on the AMD side I think they top out at 5g ethernet. Hopefully Intel's software will help out their latest chip's performance deficits--though its still a good chip for creators.
Compare its performance in Octane Benchmark, and VRAY with 192 GB RAM, RTX 4090 or 6000 ADA to M4 PRO with 128 GB RAM. Please use M.2 PCIE 5.0 for Z890. Also, if you have any chance to compare also Threadripper with 32 and 64 cores with 256 GB and 512 GB for pro rendering works and AI, such as Flux. I'd like to see if M4 really is any useful for that type of pro work
I know it's very niche topic, but Thunderbolt 5 supports 80GB per second and thus gives us the option for a faster egpu approach than using oculink witch almost non existent in the normal production line of pc and laptops. I think for 3D intel really got a good start to even the score with AMD but i would still prefer to buy a 9950X because there is no replace for 16 performance cores rendering beast. I really can't wait to see the next ProArt laptops with the 16 Cores CPU it's gonna be nothing short than amazing. As always love your videos from editing, music, explanation, and entertainment.
Lauri, based on your review I purchased an ASUS ProArt Z790 Creator Wi-Fi motherboard. I then returned it after you shared your truly unacceptable experience of trying to return yours under warranty. And have been waiting for this new ProArt Z890 version ever since. The specifications are hi-end. Not many retailers stocking it from a quick search. The only third-party seller on Amazon UK wants over £1,000 for one! Surely, it will be available for ~£500 to £550 like the Z790 before it? Thank you.
I’m looking at the Asus ROG Strix Z890-E. Has 7 M.2. 3 of them are Gen 5. Total of 14 USB connections. 2 are thunderbolt 4, another 2 is USBC. Would be great for you to talk about it before I buy it.
Very knowledgeable information but Please consider adding a Hindi audio track as well. This is very helpful for me and With over 100 crore Hindi speakers, it could help you reach a much larger audience and grow your viewership day by day. Thank you 🙏
How did you activate the "multitrack" for the audio part of video so that i can see the video in German or Italian translated by IA? Is it a function of YTSTUDIO or did you use an external app??
What do you think about a workstation with 2 RTX 4090 mounted on this motherboard and 128GB of ram? Could they work fine without loosing too much performance even if the pcie slots are splitted to x8/x8?
I can see myself using this board for a server for a NAS--oh wait a minute... How many SATA ports...? (Had to watch the video again...) Oh, okay. 4 SATA ports. I guess I cannot have 4 NVME drives and 8 SATA ports then... Oh well. Thanks for an awesome looking motherboard, even though I don't care for looks.
@ yeah true! I was a little disappointed by the choices. Went with the Gigabyte X870E Master because I like the Z890 Master but why the hell is there no 10Gigabit Ethernet on the X870R and why are the specs lower I mean yeah the price was lower aswell but yeah there is less high end stuff I feel for AMD’s chipset. But at least I get 4 more PCIE 5.0 lanes than on intel which I really like. 2 x 4TB T705 Gen 5 drives and an RTX 5090 using X16 lanes of PCIE 5.0 yeaaah baby.
285K is still productivity king for Adobe premiere pro. and not to mention the connectivity and quick sync its a no brainer for creatives. But if you game even a little get the X3D from amd
@ Well I guess if the 9800X3D almost beats it in multi core benchmarks then the 9950X3D will crush it when it comes out in January. But yeah I understand having thunderbolt 5 and Quicksync and stuff is important for professionals.
@@pvdgucht yeah I can't live without it, so forced to stay with intel forever. According to tech notice my 14700k is about 4% overall better then the 7950x in adobe with I use for work. I can't find the 9950x benchmarks.
Unfortunately, this is not it. - no debug display - no second 10gbe - insufficient amount of USB (comparing to competition) - outdated and cheap 16 phase power (with 80w stages, not 110) - DP IN only, no out - cheap and outdated audio - few NVME (strix-E has SEVEN) The most complete AND inexpensive z890 this season is MSI ACE, it has everything:10gbe, "normal" power, premium codec, plenty of USB ports, debug display.
I saw a leak indicating that Intel is working on a griffin cove Core architecture to launch it in 2026 or 2027, with E cores be removed and only hybrid cores are being used. Also for 2025, Intel is working on CACHE memory for gaming, and for workstation CPUs, firstly Intel will introduce higher cache in xeons, then they will be introducing it in consumer CPUs
I am curious, on the back of the MB, the connector end, which I suppose is the left side of the actual board, where all the connectivity is located, I am use to having jacks for audio which all seem to be gone on the newer boards.. why is that, are we now only using head phones, I mean I use head phones, but I also have a really nice set of speakers.. with a nice sub woofer and a control panel for adjusting the sound.. so what do we do now? Is there some Audio unit we are suppose to buy to connect to the Audio out or the SPDIF.. if that is what that is called.. I got three jacks which need to go into something for my speakers to work.. I see they still have it on the TUF board.. but it seems all other boards are without it, what is the deal? And how would I remedy it if I bought a board like this one, the Pro Art which does not have the connectivity on the back that I would need to plug in my 5.1 speaker system?

Intel & AMD need more improvement. Intel Price is also too much for this spec 👎 Mac M4 is rocking the field with Les Cost. Can buying a Mac mini M4 just be the only cost of the VGA price? If we are planning to make an AMD build equal to the M4 Mini, it will cost three times the M4 Mini...
Buy an AM5 mobo instead. AMD has already confirmed that Zen 6 will be on AM5 which means AM5 is supported beyond 2027! & 9950X3D will beat the crap out of the Ultra 285.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ PC industry lost its way, still shoveling out unstable DDR5 incremental crap. Doesn't even have an extra power connector for an extra GPU. Time to switch to mac again.
hey @theTechNotice i really love your videos and rn im looking to build my video editing pc. i saw this motherboard the gigabyte z790 d ax at a very very good price, what do you think of it?
I have the z790 and the tb4 ports are dogey though..i wouodnt get the 890 even though it looks pretty good for 500 mobo. Ima goiing amd next time 9950x3d and the pro art amd board
Those internal antenna must have simething to do with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 that rhe motherboard supports. But they are not mentioned in the manual.
I'll be honest. Art deserves to be featured on motherboard designs more then RGB. RGB is tacky when you put it on a motherboard but art isn't.
If only it was cheaper.

You should take a look at the Gigabyte Z890 Aero D first before making that conclusion
Aero D or Aero G?
Has it been released yet? I can't find it for sale
@Hola_Lolo Aero D. The Aero G can't compare to the Proart. The Aero D does.
@luceholiday2010 Obviously not. But it will be eventually.
I dont like these boards myself but tbh the only extra feature you get is getting 3 months of adobe products if you use them.
Great board... Too bad Intel can't seem to get its act together and make a good CPU nowadays.
Editing purposes it's better than all other CPUs. For gaming you are right.
No doubt ASUS offers a premium product, but let's not forget about their horrible customer service and small print warranties
You already got CID (customer's induced damaged) just by looking at ASUS products on the store shelves before buying it.
100% I'll NEVER forget my ordeal with their "support". 2 months of meat grinding.

@@nekox404 but I don't think that somebody need 7 m2 in a gaming pc. for a workstation, 8 lanes are enough.

Could they work fine without loosing too much performance even if the pcie slots are splitted to x8/x8?
