The PCB backside temperature of all three motherboards was well under the normal range and all three of them are good enough to handle extreme overclocking of any AM4 CPU including the 16-core Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 9 3950X.īut when it comes to the best VRMs, the MAG Tomahawk Wi-Fi has the lead followed by ROG Strix X570-F Gaming and at last, we have X570 AORUS PRO WIFI.

Here’s some info on the VRMs of these motherboards as well as the test result.Ĭan be used for extreme overclocking of any AM4 CPU The Aorus Pro WiFI comfortably wins this segment followed by MSI Tomahawk WiFi and at last, we have the ROG Strix X570-F Gaming.
#Msi x570 tomahawk update#
The Gigabyte motherboard also has Dual BIOS which I find extremely helpful in those rare scenarios when the power goes off during the BIOS update and it can get corrupted. The Aorus Pro WiFI has two slots armored PCI-E slots while MSI Tomahawk WiFi has one and ROG Strix-F has none. All three have pre-mounted I/O shields as well. These two features especially the BIOS reset button make it easier to go back to the default settings if the system fails to boot while tuning and overclocking the system.īut the good news is that all three motherboards come with the BIOS flashback button and you won’t have to worry about buying a motherboard that isn’t yet updated with a compatible BIOS for your new AMD processor. Sadly, there are no Debug LEDs or BIOS Reset Buttons in either of the three motherboards. But for me, Asus’s Aura Sync had the least issues, followed by Gigabyte and lastly, I’ve had the worst experience with MSI.

I’ve never had a flawless experience with any RGB Sync software and all the brands really need to work on that. In terms of RGB Sync software, I would rather rate them from being the least bad instead of being the best. Gigabyte and Asus have superior Audio as I mentioned in the previous section above due to the superior codec. In this section, let’s look at some of the features that aren’t essential but enhances the user experience while building, debugging, overclocking, and using the PC. You can view the complete specs of each motherboard on their product page linked below:

Overall, MSI Tomahawk has better Specs followed by Gigabyte and then Asus. MSI lags behind in sound quality with its Realtek ALC1200 Codec which is inferior to the ALC1220.

Thus, they’re pretty much on par in terms of audio output. It supports speeds up to 2.5 Gbps.Īorus X570 Pro WiFi has the Realtek ALC1220-VB Audio Codec while ROG Strix X570-F Gaming has SupremeFX S1220A which is just a fancy name for Realtek ALC1220. However, if you have an internet connection that goes past that then you need to look at MSI’s X570 Tomahawk with Realtek RTL8125B. The Aorus and ROG models have Intel I211-AT Gigabit LAN Card that supports speeds up to 1 Gbps and that should be good enough for the majority of the users.

But the ROG Strix X570-F Gaming supports neither. Read our article on WiFi-6 to understand all the new features WiFi 6 brings to the table. Both X570 AORUS PRO WIFI and the MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI have the Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200’s chip.
