Product on Review: Z170 Extreme4
Manufacturer & Sponsor: ASRock
Street Price: £110 GBP / $135 USD
Moving over to the Intel Z170 chipset will force system builders to purchase a new Intel Skylake CPU (6th Generation) and DDR4 memory. The initial cost of buying both of these products is a costly venture and therefore its understandable that many who are seeking to move to this new platform will be trying to keep the overall cost to a minimum. Today we'll be looking to ASRock and their lower-tier range as we test out the Z170 Extreme4 motherboard.
ASRock's Z170 Extreme4 is a low-cost option for those wanting to jump over to Intel Z170. This motherboard brings with it a classy design which will pair up with other hardware well and has a reasonably solid feature-set. Both of these aspects of the attributes of a motherboard only tell part of the story and thus we must test the Extreme4 in a range of benchmarks to reveal how capable this offering really is!
