Socket & audience
This ATX board uses the LGA 1200 socket for 10th and 11th generation Intel Core i9, i7, i5 and i3 processors. It targets builders who want a Z490 chipset with robust power delivery and dual-channel DDR4 support up to 128 GB. The 12+2 Dr. MOS power stages and ProCool II connector are designed for sustained high loads. AURA Sync RGB headers allow lighting coordination with other components.
Installation notes
The board follows standard ATX mounting and uses a 24-pin plus 8-pin ProCool II power arrangement that seats firmly. Memory slots accept 288-pin DDR4 modules; populate the primary pair first for dual-channel operation. The two M.2 slots sit under a shared heatsink that must be removed before drive installation. The Key E M.2 slot is for a CNVI Wi-Fi module sold separately, so plan connectivity before closing the case.
Deciding specification
The chipset is Intel Z490 with six SATA 6Gb/s ports and dual M.2 sockets for storage expansion. On-board Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet handles wired networking without an add-in card. Video output relies on HDMI 1.4 and DisplayPort 1.4 driven by the processor integrated graphics. SupremeFX S1220A audio with DTS Sound Unbound and Sonic Studio III completes the feature set.

Questions sur cet article
How do I confirm the 12+2 Dr. MOS power stages are delivering stable voltage after assembly?
Enter the BIOS and check the hardware monitor for CPU Vcore readings under load; the Fan Xpert 4 utility in Windows also shows real-time VRM temperatures and fan speeds to verify the thermal design is working.
Which components are included and what must I purchase separately for a complete build?
The board ships with the ATX motherboard, I/O shield, SATA cables, M.2 screws, RGB extension cables and documentation; a Wi-Fi module for the Key E M.2 slot, DDR4 memory, CPU, cooler, storage drives and PSU are not included.
Should I choose DDR4 2666 or DDR4 4600 modules for this Z490 board?
The official memory standard is DDR4 2666; DDR4 4600 is an overclocked speed that requires XMP-enabled modules and manual tuning in BIOS, so pick 2666 for guaranteed plug-and-play stability or 4600 if you plan to overclock.
