 What's up internet? Today, we're featuring the ASUS TUF Z590 plus Wi-Fi MOBO which ASUS kindly lent to us They also lent us the 10th Gen Intel CPU which we're using to pull the motherboard through its paces. First things first, this is an LGA1200 socket meaning it's compatible with both the 10th Gen Intel and 11th Gen Intel CPUs It's a 6 PCB motherboard meaning it has enough layers to cram the circuitry needed for the PCIe4 lanes However, if you want to use PCIe4 then you're going to need to use the Rocket Lake 11th Gen Intel CPU Because the 10th Gen Intel CPUs only support up to PCIe3. Now, if those specs kind of flew over your head That's really the problem with motherboard reviews. They can get very technical very fast So I wanted to highlight two features that even non techies can appreciate about the TUF Z590 plus The first is a built-in two-way noise cancellation AI technology of ASUS I saw a meme detailing the enemies of work from home So the annoying ASUS, the quiet electric fan, the quiet neighborhood, karaoke And I'm sure a lot of us can relate It's been more than a year since the pandemic started and a lot of us are working from home And who hasn't had that experience? You're in an important presentation And they're just annoying your neighbor's house, and the foreign client is just saying, what's that? Can't you give Fido a bone to shut him up? And you want to tell him how to shut up Fido, his name is YT And you don't have a button to push him to shut him up so he can be quiet So there's a lot of pressure involved with working from home So a lot of the noises that you encounter working from home are beyond your control But fortunately, the noise cancellation technology of the Z590 plus eliminates all of that To demonstrate, I used the Z590 plus to stream from the shop And then I brought the quiet electric fan Here in the video, you can clearly hear the electric fan But you won't be able to hear it on the stream at all Am I recording? Yeah So I'm just recording that, you know, I'm doing a live stream And the audio is what it is And then we have the fan going full tilt And so it's easy to compare later Like this was what was happening in shop, the audio in the shop But this is the only one that you can hear Because the AdModer board is actively filtering out the noise of the fan So that the listeners on the other end don't hear anything anymore The good thing about that is that it's two-way So it's similar to your place, but you can hear your conversation The motherboard will also filter out the noise coming from the senders Or the noise that comes from your conversation And it's really amazing because you don't need to do anything You just plug in any headset The one that I used wasn't the ASUS brand And the thing just works I was also super impressed with the AI noise cancellation technology of ASUS When I reviewed their Go Strix 2.4 headset And the experience is very much the same here It's a no-mass, no-fast, super simple implementation Of a technology that's really quite useful There are no software settings you need to mess around with It's literally plug in your headset and you're good to go Usually those screws come with your motherboard But you don't really think about them until you need them No joke, we've had customers come back to us The parts they bought weren't M.2 or M.Modder board But they'll just listen to our M.2 screws People want to upgrade to an M.2 drive And they come to the shop and they're like Oh, I want to upgrade And we're like great, bring in your system They bring in their system But they can't find their M.2 screws It's a big problem So much so that we carry extra M.2 screws And we're sending M.2 screws to our customers But fortunately, the TUF Z590 Plus takes an intelligent approach And re-thinks the entire M.2 insulation process So this MOBO has a screwless feature But the TUF Z590 Plus does away with all of that hassle It features a simple clasp mechanism So you slip in the M.2 into the drive And then you close the hinge And that's it Your M.2 is installed without any screws required Thanks to the M.2 Q latch You don't need to worry anymore where you put those effing You don't need to worry anymore where you put those super tiny screws And that's something I think both techies and non-techies can appreciate On the topic of M.2s, the board does come with three M.2 slots But if you're using a 10th gen Intel Then you can only use two of those slots Moving on to the more technical aspects The TUF Z590 Plus has 14 power faces in its VRM And VRM or Voltage Regulator modules are One of the things that the tech guys like to obsess about for motherboards Basically a PSU outputs 12 volts But that's a blistering amount of power for your CPU Which only requires 1.2 volts So it's a VRM switch lower down the power To an acceptable rate for the CPU So for general CPU health As well as good overclocking performance You need quality VRMs As usual with most things tech, if you want to get more information Linus's crew has a good video on this So the VRMs of the TUF Z590 Plus output around 700 amps Which is around 100 amps more than its predecessor The TUF Z490 Plus Alongside that, they remain really really cool Even in overclocking situations Which is one of the most important things You need to consider when overclocking your CPU And the VRMs remain so cool because of the quality heat sinks Actually the heat sinks used to this model Are very similar to the heat sinks used by ASOS But in their much higher end models So it's nice that the technology or the design of those super high-end mobos Is trickling down to more mid-range components Such as the TUF Z590 Plus So basically at stock speeds you're getting around 34 degrees For the temperature of the VRMs From the stock speed of 4.1 GHz We achieved a stable overclock of 4.9 GHz Which is around the 20% performance increase After an hour of that overclocked The temp on the VRM was around 41 degrees So still very cool considering the big jump in performance We were able to get So if this person is still able to get to the screening in the mall He can go in Its temperature is that low And really this is very good temperatures for a VRM on overclocking To make sure this wasn't just an aberration Or a mistake on my end I also researched around the internet for other reviews And all of them were pretty uniform And saying that the VRM cooling of the TUF Z590 Plus Is excellent Therefore making it an excellent choice If you're planning to overclock your CPU Finally on a minor note On an aesthetic level I really like how the heat sinks of the VRMs bracket The CPU block of the AIO So it's sort of like they form a little frame And you know you're better able to appreciate the AIO CPU block And the heat sinks themselves you know look good They look kind of edgy They're both functional and good looking I mean they look kind of sinister So it's good in the build And so they look good They perform good There's really not much to complain about here The TUF Z590 Plus also supports RAM speeds up to 5133 MHz And comes with two ARGB headers And two RGB headers That last point might seem like a minor thing But if you watch my other reviews You know that I'm so old How many RGB headers does the mobile have And I super appreciate when the mobile comes with both The three pin are ARGB header And the four pin RGB header And having both of them on one motherboard Really makes it a lot more versatile Let's say when you got the computer You only thought well I only want RGB But then later on you want to upgrade You can't find a good RGB Or you want to try the more advanced ARGB So there's so many options that come into play for RGB It's always better if your mobile has both Or supports both the ARGB and the RGB It will save you a lot of headaches later on If you've watched some of our other videos also You know that I'm old fashioned And I don't like using Wi-Fi for my main rig Whenever possible I always use the wired LAN ethernet connection But with the TUF Z590 Plus I can have it both ways It does feature a 2.5 GBPS ethernet port As well as built in Wi-Fi 6 So if you want to use Wi-Fi There's the option for that If you want to use the wired connection There's also the option for that Again just adding to the versatility of the board To sum up the TUF Z590 Plus Is an impressive board Which incorporates many of the technologies That ASUS has in its higher end mobos For example the heat sinks on the VRMs The AI noise cancelling technology And the Z590 Plus also contributes its own ideas With a very impressive simple to use But a lifesaver M.2 Q latch If you want further details about the motherboard I do encourage you to check out this video by Laurent It's one of the few motherboard review videos That I don't talk watching to be honest Because it's very technical But this review has both the technical aspects And it's presented in a way that's easy to follow The SRP of the TUF Z590 Plus Wi-Fi is around 13,000 Which puts it slightly in the premium territory But considering all of its bells and whistles And its quality components You can really see that you're getting your value for money Thanks for watching And all the thanks in the world to our top fans Christian Espinoza John Ruben Ocha ITX addict Richard
