SuperMicro C7Z370-CG-IW Mini-ITX Motherboard Review

SuperMicro C7Z370-CG-IW

With an impeccable history of creating many of the most trusted and reliable motherboards in the world, we’ve been super excited to check out the C7Z370-CG-IW from SuperMicro. Forget crazy fins and aesthetics, tacked on RGB lighting, and funky graphics, because that’s not the SuperMicro way. Function over form, and reliability and round the clock performance are what matter here. If you want great gaming performance without all the gimmicks, SuperMicro wants your attention here.

Features

It may lack gimmicks, but it’s packing plenty of goodies to keep you sweet. Equipped with support for high-speed DDR4 memory, robust connectivity, dual M.2 mounts, Optane support, and more. I’m really happy to see good Wi-Fi onboard, as well as the properly fantastic ALC1220 chipset for audio.

What SuperMicro Had to Say

“SUPERO’s Core Gaming series does away with the nonsensical features, and focuses purely on the essentials for professionals, gamers, or anyone who seeks a solid, well-rounded board. By utilizing resources to better develop platform features instead of gimmicks, the Core Gaming series offers excellent performance matched with uncompromised reliability.” – SuperMicro

“SUPERO has made its very first mini-ITX form factor motherboard loaded with features that all gamers and enthusiasts would enjoy in a small, portable package. This beast of a motherboard lets you build the most extreme gaming system anywhere with its vast connectivity options and has the power to take on any computing task with Intel’s latest 8th generation Core processors! Don’t forget the customizable RGB LED options you have for this board so you can light up your system to get that flare from the inside out.” – SuperMicro
