    Its a no go because it doesn't have bios flashback. If your bios flash gets corrupted there's no way to flash it again, you have to RMA the whole board. Bios flashback is almost standard across other vendors' motherboards by now.

    The technical and essential difference between AMD X and B motherboards, is that the X boards have (2) onboard chipsets while the B boards have (1) onboard chipset (and the "E" simply means that the board has Gen5 PCIe lanes available instead of just Gen4). The second chip doesn't really affect performance per se - it just changes the configuration of the PCIe lanes and allows for additional lanes coming off the chips. But keep this in mind: THE ADDITIONAL LANES DO NO MATTER unless you actually plan to use all of them. For example if you buy a Gigabyte X670E Aeorus Master with 40 useable PCIe lanes instead of a B650E Aeorus Master with 32 useable PCIe lanes, but you don't use the 8 extra lanes for anything, then you are basically paying $100 extra for no particular reason. Always look at the motherboard block diagrams in the board manual, available on the manufacturer website.
    In fact that is probably the number one most common way that people waste money on motherboards: paying for features they don't use. The only "Construction Quality" features I always check are the PCB layer count for running RAM (8+ is excellent, 6 or less is average), and the Power Stages (12-14 is good, 16+ is great,

      I feel like your comment just overcomplicates things, but I will come back to it later once I have had the chance to digest it. In general, you get better features with more expensive boards and I've always based purchasing decisions on what I can afford. Counting lanes and phases sounds good, but I'm not convinced anyone pays attention to that.

Certainly this new Z790 is very very beautiful. Quality motherboards are always wonderful, I love them, and are necessary in PCs built to last, and in general in all high-end builds.
    The best VRMs are very useful with the most demanding overclocks and large RAMs; the numerous nvme slots are useful over time, and numerous additional attacks leave room for maneuver and the possibility of precisely distributing the not many lines that a two-channel socket makes available. 🙂

      This is why for me I still think 12th Gen is better then 13th Gen. It's not that big of a difference in performance, but in addition to the 16 pcie 5 lanes it also has 4 pcie 4 lanes for a ssd. It baffles me why Intel cut that for the 13th Gen.
      Edit: AMD only supports pcie 4 on the chipset side, which is also bs and lets everything else run even slower. So if you just take all the other 5 slots and put ssds in there your speeds are still better than using any AMD configuration.

So now I have to upgrade to an x570 motherboard (not wanting to change out the CPU and RAM at the moment), just so that I can use a PCIe add on card in my system.

Most real world cases i see are not gaming just playing movies, display GPS instructions, basic show my kids internet videos, and of course some use it for an extra passenger screen for whatever they are doing on their laptop which the laptop is the main GPU not the car.
      So the GPU in how it is being used in reality doesn't have to be that good. The car isn't a computer. Now if he wanted to make it one he could but with the specs of the embedded systems it would be a low end system as high end systems will drain the battery to fast even when idling.

      Process mode and TDP is a major difference between both cpu manufacturers
      Obviously anything battery powered will prefer the more efficient chip not only cause of RNDA but it’s two or more generations of process nodes ahead of intel; their meteor lake can barely sip power without it being a locked processor; Tesla cars are still dependent on battery and you don’t want your instruments to drain more power than regenerative brakes can get power back
      Sadly for devices like smart phones that are on ARM and much small process nodes they are trying to squeeze much more out of a processor but there’s diminishing returns on how big a battery can be since a solid 3-4 day battery is nice but unrealistic on what performance sacrifices it could lead to underperforming phones that feel like there’s been no improvement
      Nvidia is stuck in the issue of their gpus are good per watt but it’s been disregarded since they want to charge so much money up front then factor in cost of ownership over time

      @@dvxAznxvb yes they're more efficient, but with a battery as big as a car the difference is basically irrelevant. Even running the thing flat out for 10hrs will drain only a few minutes of drive time.
      The biggest difference is that AMD has an SoC that can run a high performance gaming console, and nobody except maybe Apple can match it in the current market.
      It's also x86, same as the Atom SoC used in older cars.

    This past week I discovered an unexpected utility of motherboards with more than a couple PCIe x16 m.2 slots having the same gen version. I gifted an m.2 to a relative whose MB has three x16 slots, all gen 4, two of which were already in use. The new m.2 is faster than the installed m.2s. Simply adding it to the remaining slot wouldn’t gimp its superior speed by much…a convenient situation. Yes, moving it into slot 1 would take best advantage of the new m.2 speed. It is the convenience of having the option that I’d not previously considered.
    Next MB I buy will likely have 4 or more m.2 slots of the latest version and all x16 (or x32? If I live that long). Or I won’t be able to afford such a desirable configuration!

    It's all about the lanes and less about the OC. Each line has its "use case" the Z line adds little to no benefit for even those who want to OC a "K" Intel CPU .. good luck trying. The XMP OC is available across all 7 series. Instead, the primary real world difference is the Chipset PCIe Lanes: Z790 28, B760 14, and H770 24. Also more limited support PCIe 5.0 support on the non 790 motherboards.

If the memory controller on chip can't do it in the first place you're boned, but also the motherboard needs to be built in a way that the interference for the traces to the memory slots isn't a problem at those higher speeds, which means they try to make the traces shorter and perhaps add extra PCB layers to separate them.

      If you need a bunch of m.2, high speed network, fast wifi, lots of fast USB, etc. all at the same time, a board like this is pretty much the only way to get it on the consumer CPU platforms.
      You can always step up to the Xeon W-2400/3400 lines in Intel or AMD Threadripper if you want more than what a board like this can give like multiple video cards, multiple PCIe5 drives, higher RAM capacity and bandwidth, high speed networking up to like 200Gbps.

When you talk about creator you have to have in mind what type of creator....for a real professional this combination might be weak....for me as a hobby creator for home videos using cyberlink power director this thing with hyper encode feels like a beast. So far everything works like swiss clockwork. The only thing which sucks with Asrock is the RGB control software. It is supposed to integrate parts like RAM. It also looks like it does but the kingston fury does wild things in reality and is not really in sync. My Asus MB in the office are far better . But this is a small thing . I run 2x32 GB at 5600 MT (follow your recommendation...better slower but stable) and never had a glitch with that.

    Most of the computers I've looked at over the years (hobby - friend's and acquaintances computers) were clearly bottlenecked by their motherboard. My old computer - which was pretty great over 10 years ago, and is still sufficient for any gaming task (minus a couple games where the CPU isn't quite beefy enough)
    I've not seen many systems where I couldn't identify (or at least, didn't suspect) the wall they were hitting was the motherboard itself - sometimes tossing expensive, top of the line parts into a sub-par board can end up being a bit of a waste.. Now, those "gaming wifi" features .... I do not believe are worth spending extra for unless you really love wifi - I personally can't stand most wireless devices - lower speed, higher latency - and for a lifelong PC gamer it can be very noticeable latency if we're talking about wireless peripherals.
    Wireless internet ... provided the hardware broadcasting it and the ISP are alright, is probably fast enough, but I still find it to be unreliable - and then there's the fact that it isn't really great to be constantly exposed to all those waves - certainly not from right next to the devices. People who thought that was all conspiracy theory talk would be sadly mistaken. Little known fact, but it is a verifiable fact - 5G wireless technology was developed as a weapon in Iraq, by Israel. It's a "non-lethal directed energy weapon" - it's for crowd control. Those arrays they point at groups of people that makes them disperse? it literally gives them the feeling of being burned - and it can actually burn you too. There's a lady out there who got fried by one and it was like one of the worst sunburns I've ever seen - would not be surprised if she ended up with skin cancer as a result.
    In the end, we use similar directed energy waves to cook our food if we are using a microwave - it should go without saying that those waves are not always going to be harmless - indeed ,when the technology was developed, the INTENT is to harm. I'm all for non-lethal weapons, even though I also do not intend to get in front of them - but it IS a problem when we're sitting next to one and someone is telling you it's "perfectly safe" - and there certainly are studies that show the opposite - and there have been studies that showed that since ... I think 3G. Pre-millimeter-wave technologies were still known to have a variety of ill effects, like tumor growth. It's not even a "secret" - it's just one of those things they opt to not tell you if they can at all avoid it - because these technologies give those who deploy them the $, as well as the control they crave. It gives them an eye into everything the peasants do, really - and that's priceless to the power structure - which is why even an known unsafe technology will find it's way into homes - and because so few of us pay attention, we'll never make the connections on our own, to the increased rates of certain health problems.

    14:40 This is stupid, current gen cards are PCIe 4.0, if you use that M.2 slot, half of the bandwidth is gone. And some performance with it, even worse when you have a PCIe 3.0 GPU.
    Once the GPUs get to PCIe 5.0 this isn't so much of a problem anymore.
    And no, not all M.2 slots are "full speed", four of them are connected to the chipset and the chipset does not have enough bandwidth to the CPU to support all of them at full speed and load. You essentially have to share a DMI 4.0 x8 (essentially PCIe 4.0 x8) link. This means that the max speed you can get in summary from those M.2 slots is PCIe 4.0 x8. Not counting other devices hanging on the chipset that need bandwidth too.
