Asus to launch new DDR5 compatible Z690 boards –

Last week we already announced that the new intel Alder Lake They would come with new heatsinks depending on the micro model, but you have to accompany them with good plates, that is why Asus will launch new Z690 plates compatible with DDR5.

Next month the new intel Alder Lake would be announced, and supposedly their prices having been filtered, today we see how through eaeunion, we have been able to see the new models of Asus brand motherboards.

Some of these new models with the Z690 chipset we note that they will still support DDR4 memory modules, although there are others that directly add support for the new DDR5 architecture.

For you to situate yourself, the plate models that have the D4 tag are the plate models that will support both DDR4 and DDR5, a mixture that we have not seen for more than a decade and that launched brands such as Asrock, MagiDeal, among others. There are also other models that will continue to use only DDR4 such as some TOP Z690 models.

In case you are also interested, below we leave you the data that Intel has confirmed for the moment about its upcoming Intel Alder Lake computers:

• The intel Alder Lake will be the first micros they will use 10nm SuperFin nodes.
• The intel Alder Lake will have support for DDR5 memory modules, supporting DDR4-3400 and DDR5-4800
• The intel Alder Lake will have connectivity with PCI Express 5.0 with less consumption, it will also have 20 PCI Express lines in the I / O controller, which will be integrated into the same micro, although with a small difference, and that is that 16 lines will go to PCI Express 5.0 and the remaining 4 to PCI Express 4.0.
• The intel Alder Lake will use 2 new cores, the first will be Gracemont, which would be low consumption Atom type, unsupported hyperthreading, the second would be Golden Cove, which is the successor of Sunny Cove y Willow CoveFor its performance, according to Intel, a single core would be 20% higher than the current 11th generation and twice as much in multithreading.
