ASRock Z370 Extreme 4 Motherboard Review
AIDA 64 Memory Bandwidth and Latency
The memory performance was good too, delivering stable read, write and copy performance while using the XMP profile on our memory. As we’ve seen with other Z370 motherboards, the latency is nice and low too, which no doubt helps us achive such good benchmark scores overall.
Cool review! Looking forward to replace my old rig with new 8700k cpu for my wedding photography / videography editing.
Now, became more difficult to choose MB. Apparently there are big difference in speed.

Sounds I found MB to buy. Looking forward to replace my old rig with new 8700k cpu for my wedding photography / videography editing.
Still it is not clear why results have such a big difference if they use same CPU and Z370 chip.

Did you leave MCE enabled for those benchmarks? It really screws with the scores, and is likely why the ASUS boards are ahead. They are basically auto-overclocked on the stock benchmarks, making it not truly the same scenario. To make it even, you could have just enabled or disabled MCE on every board.
What I want to know is if the Creative Cinema3 sound on the Fatal1ty is any better than the sound on the Extreme4 or not. Since they use the same codec surely it’s just a software add?
Also neither board has onboard wifi whereas the Taichi has dual band wifi.
I decided I want an asrock board but which one.
Also the Fatal1ty and Taichi have debug and reset switches where the extreme4 does not
Does this motherboard have good overclocking abilities? If yes, then it’s probably the best motherboard you can get in terms of value tbh.
