ASRock has introduced the W790 WS R2.0 motherboard for workstations based on Intel Xeon W-3400 and W-2400 processors using the LGA 4677 processor socket. While the name suggests that the new product is the second revision of the W790 WS board released by the manufacturer last February, the W790 WS R2.0 is actually a more affordable version of the original model.
Small and neat mini-ITX boards are increasingly in demand on the background of large ATX, so today we'll introduce readers to Gigabyte A620I AX - a bright representative on the current socket.
The motherboard has a tiny package, the size of a box for a TV set-top box. Inside there is the hero of the review in an antistatic bag, antennas for Wi-Fi, a backplate, SATA cables, a screw for the M.2 drive, and paper documentation.
ASUS Republic of Gamers brand has released 4 new motherboards with Intel Z790 chipset: ROG Maximus Z790 Formula, ROG Maximus Z790 Apex Encore, ROG Strix Z790 Gaming WiFi II and ROG Strix Gaming WiFi II. These new products are designed to work with 14th, 13th and 12th generation Intel Core processors.
