I’m particularly very biased towards the ProArt line from ASUS when it comes to motherboards. ASUS is obviously still learning how to best equip their ProArt motherboard. Born in the Z490 era, it was stuck with Intel until the birth of the B550-Creator. ASUS is hoping that changes with this generation. With Z690 motherboard bumping price tiering, ASUS has managed to utilize the offerings of the Z690 chipset along with the Alder Lake CPUs to push their ProArt board to stratosphere. With onboard 10GbE, four M.2 slots, eight SATA ports, built-in Thunderbolt 4, the ASUS ProArt Z690 is made for maximum IO in-mind for multimedia professionals who may need to work locally or via network, this ProArt is simply next level. Let’s check it out more in this review.
