EVGA Z370 FTW Motherboard Review

EVGA FTW

As one of the biggest and most respected names in the business, EVGA has a strong reputation to live up to. They have created many of the best graphics cards in the world, such as their stunning take on the GTX 1080 Ti. In more recent years, they’ve been playing around in the motherboard market too and had several big successes. Now, we’ve got the EVGA FTW in the eTeknix office, one of their most popular Z370 motherboards, and I can’t wait to see what it’s capable of!

As you can see, the motherboard is pretty competitive regarding features. Equipped with onboard power controls, high-end power delivery hardware, dual BIOS, Optane support, and more, it should be a strong competitor when it comes to overclocking. Of course, how it stacks up in the real world vs how it stacks up on paper are two different things, so let’s get it on the test bench asap.

What EVGA Had to Say

“The EVGA Z370 FTW has everything you need to upgrade and enjoy Intel’s latest 8th Gen Core i7/i5 processors. With the Z370 platform, high-performance gaming and powerful work machines are now more affordable than ever. Featuring 6 SATA ports, 10 USB 3.0 ports, USB 3.1 Type A and Type-C ports, multiple M.2 sockets, Intel® Optane™, 7.1 Channel Audio, and an Intel Gigibit NIC, this board is ready for storage, sound, and data whenever you want it. However, this board wouldn’t be FTW without a highly-efficient Digital VRM connected to an 11 Phase power design, 2-way SLI + PhysX support, Dual-BIOS support, and EVGA’s GUI BIOS. Whatever your passion, the EVGA Z370 FTW has the tools to get you there and the power to get the job done.” – EVGA

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
