There is no PG in the name. PG is the old z790 motherboard. This one has no PG in the name. They pay you to sell a new motherboard, yet you confuse people and put the name of the old one. Unbelievable. Also, I get you need to attract attention to the product so you used wi-fi 7 theoretical combined network speed of 46Gb/s, BUT IT IS WHEN 8 DEVICES WITH 2x2 SPATIAL STREAMS CONNECT TO A SINGLE ROUTER. It is like COMBINING SPEEDS of 8 CARS AND TELLING THAT A SINGLE CAR CAN DO THIS SPEED. This channel is just something else. Not a review. An overview with a ton of mistakes.
Maybe it's me but I think WiFi 7 is misunderstood, the M.2 WiFi slot is fed from a pcie x1 gen 3 lane, maximum transfer is 8Gtps, allowing for overheads I'd guess maximum transfer would be about 5Gbps from pc to access point / router, I think the 46Gbps is the theoretical maximum transfer between the access point and multiple simultaneous clients.
Yes please make a video on explaining the reduction in lanes when adding an nvme ssd to the first slot. I have heard many motherboards have it like this. Unfortunately i couldnt find any information on my motherboard Asus ProArt z790 Creator Wifi
No need to make a video. You see an 5.0 m.2 slot on a intel 1700 board? You get x8 speed for the gpu as soons as you plug anything there. Intel cpu does not have 5.0 lanes for the m.2, so the only way to have it is to take it from the gpu. So you see an 5.0 m.2 - it will cut the lanes. No 5.0 m.2 on the board? No such problem then.
Thanks for good review, this is one of the more interesting boards from Z790. EDP is used also for projects like internal monitor or front panel monitor do display thermals, fans, or just system. There are projects where edp display is fused in side panel of case - large monitor on side of pc case
Beautiful tour of the motherboard. I just bought it and have joy watching you describing it all so nicely. Great motherboard as it looks. Thank you for this super video. Subscribed.
@@JFrameMan true that, true. but sometimes its also up to the mobo manufacturer. why even advertise gen5 speeds when it will cripple, at least to some extent, the bandwidth of the x16 pcie slot? at this point id rather have 14 sata connectors and 0 nvme. use sata ssds and be done with it at what? 500MB/s speeds? beats the hdd, ill take it. not this bs. ‘spend 100-200$ more and get gen 5 speeds, but then x16 is x8, and those two additional SATA ports cant be used’, lol. i know that on higher end chipsets SATA ports can be used when using NVME or two, but on lower end chipsets you cant. damn it, take all the NVME, gimme 2 x16 slots and at least 8 SATA ports. ill manage. at least i dont have to worry about heat and speed degradation. aaaah. rant over. cheers!
Wifi 7 might have incredible specs, but my question is "how difficult is to achieve them?". For instance, do I need a bunch of repeaters in the various rooms to get over 10Gb? Will a closed door in the way make my speeds plummet? How much does a router that can actually handle such speeds cost? And what about latency? Im genuenly curious, might be an interesting video for the future?
Too new, you will still be crippled by your ISP. So while, in theory you could reach 46Gbps, your router would cost anywhere between CAD $700 - $whatever - I did see some going to 1500 Canadian dollars. As for coverage internally it has about the same coverage as 6E as it still uses the 6Ghz band, but is allowed to boost it.
@@aelaan12 oh that is for sure and it will take a while before wifi7 will be mainstream and "cheap", I myself just switched to 6E, and I did so only because the WiFi at my university has gotten slow, and I discovered that using 6E is much faster, probably because there are few users connected. Mine is more curiosity towards the new standard and what we can realistically expect from it
As always, your videos are tops. Your attention to detail and clear explanations are much welcome. I had considered a few earlier [creative build] versions of Asrock for a motherboard in my upcoming build, but you have given reviews of other boards in your budget builds that I think may be better for me, given that I have a Quadro P4000 card (yes, I know it is ancient, but I already have it) and I cannot find a good/compatible match for it running your highly recommended i5 12600 cpu. I understand the card will be the bottleneck for this old card, but at nearly 80, I enjoy using Blender, Fusion 360, Plasticity, and Photoshop for my own creative amusement and just want a good system based on this card I have. What motherboard and also what chipset sould I use for this card and cpu combo in your opinion.
The problem by not using the top M.2 slot, PCIe 5.0, is that the other M.2 slots are not direct to CPU but instead have added latency through the chipset. I find that it reduces certain stuttering when using the top M.2 slot. As far as a PCIe 4.0 GPU, including an RTX 4090, at x8 PCIe 4.0 the reduced bandwidth is negligible and not noticeable. I believe in testing the differences 0%-2%, in other words, with my gaming on a 3440x1440 0-4 FPS difference but with zero stuttering in loading textures. However, soon because of this sharing issue and the limited consumer LGA 1700 and forthcoming LGA 1851 CPU PCIe lanes some of the GPUs will include an M.2 slot. _In addition, in my case, I have an ASUS Z790 ROG Extreme with an accessible top M.2 slot beneath its built-in OLED info display .. water cooling prevents excess to the buried M.2 slots. The top slot is above the GPU blocks and I can access them, the pair of DIMM M.2 slots are populated with a RAID array, so everything is accessible without having to tear apart my PC. CPU-Z J8P8UR_
Gamers Nexus did this, on a 4090 it's basically 0-3% with some outliers. It's an absurd tradeoff to make for a 'newer' technology. If you're good with a gen 4 drive just get a z690 MB - as best I know only one (some ASUS board) board suffers from this issue. There's also quite a few z790 DDR4 boards that don't suffer from this. Basically you're looking for a board with an M2_1 slot that is PCIe4. When they say just use one of the other M2 slots what happens is then you're going through the chipset which is silly to give that up unless you are a user who really benefits from PCIe5 drive speeds. I'd wager, though, that 99% of users won't notice any difference either way and that's probably why Intel went down this road.
I'd guess not since that motherboard with any 14th Gen CPU will be overheating without a water cooling system and under-volting, which seems to be a subject that no one wants to claim as a truly guaranteed adaptation to maintain system thermals.
I never use WiFi for my comp connection I use Ethernet which is what most enthusiasts use... It would be good if you are far from your router and of course you will need a WiFi 7 router...
there are 20 pcie lanes on these intel cpu's , that means your graphics card runs in 16 lanes while 4 remaining lanes go to the gen 5 x4 nvme. Graphics does not drop to 8 lanes.
So if top slot will drop to pcie 5 x 8 but even 4090 is 4 and will run x8 why not slot it in bottom? Assuming case will accommodate airflow for card… would need a very tall case.. or just water block it. Could use top x16 pcie5 to raid 0 4 4tb p700 for 40-50gbps transfers!!! Keeping top m2 slot vacant…
Graphics cards, even the 40 series, barely max out gen3.0 x8. Like a 5 to 10% drop in performance at most. The only thing that can really use all that speed and bandwidth are nvme drives, but even then the difference between a 7s boot time and a 3s boot time is not really noticeable lol. With the thermal throttling of pcie 5 drives, we can't even rely on so that speed for long any way.
As someone who has a Gen5 NVMe and so have to run my GPU at x8 (on a different Z790 board to this), I would love to know whether there is any significant difference to GPU performance for creator applications... I suspect there isn't, but it would also be interesting to know whether the spped increase on the Gen5 NVMe makes a big difference in real applications too..!
Graphics cards have barely begun to fully saturate Gen 3.0 speeds. I've seen a few benchmarks and for gen4.0 you might see a 5% or so at most. Gen 4x8 to gen 3x8 might see more of a bottleneck but only for the highest tier graphics cards. PCIe has just advanced so much in speed that outside nvme and cpu/memory systems we don't really have any components that can use the full bandwidth. For example dual 100Gbe Ethernet cards are more than happy on pcie4x16 which has a max bandwidth of around 300Gbps (32GB/s). PCIe 5 further doubles all those theoretical speeds
seems like a very powerful motherboard, sadely, with all that new tech, you will have to upgrade your router to wifi 7 and also switch to fiber wich will cost a lot more per month than a traditional cable
from a creator perspective aren't we looking at between 256GB-2.5/3TB for minimums for ram scrubbing content in the all the film editor and given the lack of ram issue on the gpu at present lack of ram is causing bottle neck
@@Dhruv-qw7jf nope that was system ram requirements though with all the crap out of both nvidia and amd at present i have to whether or not 64GB would be even usable since 8-24GB seems to be choking for the lack of ram problem we have today.. when and where speeding up ram interim corrects for the lack of then pensions off the slower system ram to correct for the lack of gpu ram whether or not adding up to 8TB m.2 as a caching drive would correct this flaw remains to be seen. think the 8-24GB gpu's as they hit the market were obsolete and we have been living in the delusion they usable for modern graphics and shader engines only to find out they can barely contain 4k assets from 10-15 years now look at all the shit we run today i don't think a raided m.2 of 16TB will have the space to handle all the crap you have to install with a modern game to run it I'm only stating fact of what modern video editing software requires scrubbing edited footage before the software crashes
thanks for the review. I need IO for my file server and I am currently using a MSI Z690 Carbon but it does not have 4 m.2 x4 connections. 3 are x4 gen 4 but one is gen 3 so I have to use the PCI slot to get full 4 x4 gen 4. This also more reasonable priced then the Carbon.
@theTechNotice does this board works with noctua air coolers ( U12A and U14S) or and 192gb corsair rams? Appreciate if you could make a video on it. Cheers!
The board definitely looks cool, but “Riptide” is more of an Asrock entry-level board, right? (What does that mean today? I'm in minute 12, I don't have an idea price but it will be at least 300€ + x)
In Europe it`s about 290€, which is great price considering tax and that it is a 8 layer PCB with 5 M.2s. All competition around this pricepoint is 6 layer with less features. I like this board a lot...
The PCIe1 Slot downgrade from 16x to 8x if the Gen5 m.2 slot is used. Do you think there will be any problems running a 4090 in the PCIe1 slot and a Gen 4 990 in the m.2 gen 5 slot? Technically all can still run at their maximum potential. Not much information on this yet.
WiFi7 is just another gimmick for daily use, with my WiFi6 ASUS AX86 router, I can barely get around 300Mbits in another room behind a wall, speaking of theoretical 46Gbit speeds, well SMB protocol itself isn't designed for it yet, wired 10Gbe is already limited to about 90% of its theoretical throughput, and latency/jitter on wireless connection will always be worse than copper of fiber
@@danyy1831 I mean the name of the board! There are two motherboards from ASRock called Z790 Riptide, the old board from 2022 called "ASROCK Z790 PG Riptide" and the new model "ASROCK Z790 Riptide WiFi" - the one that is here tested is the new one ASROCK Z790 Riptide WiFi. However, the video description says ASROCK Z790 PG Riptide, which is not correct, this is the old board.
Does this motherboard works with rgb? I did connected 6 fans to commander core and only sees plain white and yes my fans are corsair rgb. This is my first custom pc and yes I'm still a rookie.
Totally unnecessary to have 5 x M.2 actually on mobo. Use a x16 slot + M.2 carrier (with fan) + BIOS bifurcation (4x4x4x4) - Asrock have included cards on previous boards. Wifi 7 is only useful if the rest of your setup supports it (unlikely)
This Motherboard is just no go. Missing SPDIF port for sound optik. Missing USB ports 10gb speed. Missing I/0 Cmos button. Missing I/0 Bios button. Missing Fan RGB port. Missing USB C Port 20gb Speed. Bad Audio Realtek ALC1220 HD Audio . Even the next in line have Realtek ALC4082 HD Audio ASRock Z790 NOVA WIFI is better but damm high prices for Wifi 7. Asus is even more crazy. MSI can not even get out whit 14 th gen motherboards have asked 12 stores. And nobody have even got news from there vender about 14 th gen CPU. Even when people can get Intel 14 th gen day by day. But Motherboard company´s is asleep where are all the new boards. And mixed prices and not just the high end pushed out. Are we unly gonna see 3 or 5 motherboards that normal people can relay to. In normal terms and motherboards that do not cost more that a hole pc.
You don't have to let me know anything! I've been in this industry for over 20 years and I keep testing and building hundreds of PCs and components, I don't lie for views like these youtubers! :)@@nimrodery
Really could you elaborate a bit? ASRock mobo is No #1 brand in both Japan and South Korea, I understand cheapest, low-end models maybe "electronic sensitive?" (need a good PSU) but the highend ASRock mobos are stable, reliable, afforable!

If you have a high end gen 3 GPU you might notice having only 8 lanes. Just don't populate the Gen 5 M.2 slot, who has gen 5 anyway?
would this work with an i7 13700kf out of the box?
Ahh yiss. Of course I see this the day after buying a WiFi 6e board 😭😭😭
all you have to do is change the wifi chip no biggie
Is it just me or is that board extremely warped?
I have a gen3 nvme in my top slot and 4090 still runs at 4.0x16 on an older z690 board… maybe its just gen 4/5 that reduce the pcie slot?
I think it's gen5 that will reduce it down to x8. But still, you'll only lose at most 2%.
Is that cardboard box conductive?
Does this motherboard works with rgb? I did connected 6 fans to commander core and only sees plain white and yes my fans are corsair rgb. This is my first custom pc and yes I'm still a rookie.
Totally unnecessary to have 5 x M.2 actually on mobo. Use a x16 slot + M.2 carrier (with fan) + BIOS bifurcation (4x4x4x4) - Asrock have included cards on previous boards. Wifi 7 is only useful if the rest of your setup supports it (unlikely)
u have a router for it?
Not yet ;)
WiFi 7 needed to get to 49gb/s... Or 7^2gb/s. So close to perfection. 😂
Those total speeds mean nothing for users. Intel BE202 clearly states max speed is 2,4 Gb/s which is great but not life changing.
Nah im looking for a 1tb speed wifi
The Wi-Fi is maybe the most useless thing in a motherboard.
This Motherboard is just no go.
Missing SPDIF port for sound optik.
Missing USB ports 10gb speed.
Missing I/0 Cmos button.
Missing I/0 Bios button.
Missing Fan RGB port.
Missing USB C Port 20gb Speed.
Bad Audio Realtek ALC1220 HD Audio .
Even the next in line have Realtek ALC4082 HD Audio
ASRock Z790 NOVA WIFI is better but damm high prices for Wifi 7.
Asus is even more crazy.
MSI can not even get out whit 14 th gen motherboards have asked 12 stores.
And nobody have even got news from there vender about 14 th gen CPU.
Even when people can get Intel 14 th gen day by day.
But Motherboard company´s is asleep where are all the new boards.
And mixed prices and not just the high end pushed out.
Are we unly gonna see 3 or 5 motherboards that normal people can relay to.
In normal terms and motherboards that do not cost more that a hole pc.
46mbps haha. We know whatcha meant
8 layer PCB does not make better it better for OC. If it does, congratulate the 8 layer PCB designer at not sucking.
That's the problem with Intel. It's not 14th gen. It's a refresh that they are passing off as a new gen. Fraudulent.
Yeah, have a look at my 14th gen review :)
ASRock motherboards are and will always be trash.
not as trash as your poor family history
I'll let you know when I finally need to upgrade from my 5820K.
You don't have to let me know anything! I've been in this industry for over 20 years and I keep testing and building hundreds of PCs and components, I don't lie for views like these youtubers! :)@@nimrodery
Really could you elaborate a bit? ASRock mobo is No #1 brand in both Japan and South Korea, I understand cheapest, low-end models maybe "electronic sensitive?" (need a good PSU) but the highend ASRock mobos are stable, reliable, afforable!
First, real-life review one with all the tests included (electronic, termic etc.) and then we talk :)@@newsgroupsusenet5486
Hey thanks for the video, how many Gen 5 SSD's can I put in this motherboard? Only 1?
Yes
