Overclocking
It seems that all of the Intel Z490 chipset motherboards come with very comprehensive VRM configurations and power delivery. As such, every board we tested was able to hit 5.2 GHz on all cores. We know the CPUs will go higher, but for your average consumer, a simple multiplier adjustment and voltage setting seems to be all you’ll need to push the new Intel CPUs.
The MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Carbon WiFi Motherboard reached 5.2 GHz with the BIOS voltage set to 1.345v.
