Z490 Aorus PRO AX review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 06/10/2020 01:38 PM [ 17 comment(s) ]

In this review we look at the Gigabyte Z490 Aorus PRO AX. The new series is aimed to become the more high-end solution at 269 USD, it comes with AX WIFI, and has that intel 2.5 Gbps ethernet jack. That and some pretty fancy design choices from an aesthetic point of view.

I will never touch an MSI motherboard. Gigabyte, Asus, ASRock (might as well be Asus) are what I look at first.

went from Asrock Z390 to MSI TRX40, asrock taichi bios was awesome, full hd super readable an ultra responsive file browser find your file and flash the bios, multiple profiles etc..also the "fast boot" setting that basically zaps the bios screen and you go from power off to moving the mouse on desktop in 15s with an m.2
msi amd bios looks like a 1990 industrial bios with pimp my ride graphics on top of it, awful also takes 5min to boot (I blame amd but that might be msi...)

that said if you study how MSI shares the cpu lanes and their m.2 placement it's better designed than the other brands both on intel and amd
MSI = great motherboard layout design but the worst I have seen apps, software and bios it's clearly not their strong point

little offtopic ... I found this weird, I got Gigabyte Z490M Gaming X and I need to install network driver from CD, because support for this motherboard does not offer network driver and latest Windows 10 2004 installation does not have a network driver present.


This is the latest, doesn't work on you? https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1W-UTf3Bunqefq07H8S7cLMfhi9bZhGP1?usp=sharing

Do it through Device Manager.
