SuperMicro C9Z390-CG-IW Z390 Motherboard Review

Gaming Performance

The gaming performance on this motherboard is pretty decent, as it posted a competitive frame rate in Rise of the Tomb Raider of 202.42, which isn’t far from the top score of 208.13. It did even better in Deus Ex though, posting a 155 FPS, which is our third highest score to date. Ghost Recon was a little slower than the other Z390 motherboards, but not by more than a few FPS, and 131.77 is still a decent score overall. Finally, Far Cry Primal was much more on track, with 115/151 FPS putting it firmly with the other Z390 motherboards we’ve tested.
