ASUS Z97-DELUXE Motherboard Hardware Review
It’s a rare occasion that Intel releases a motherboard chipset without a corresponding processor to accompany it, yet here we are. With the introduction of Intel’s Z97 Express platform comes support for existing 4th-generation 22nm Haswell / Devil’s Canyon and upcoming 5th-generation Intel desktop processors fit for the LGA 1150 socket. Among the updates are: PCIe M.2 support for on-board solid state storage, enough bandwidth for up to six SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports, and up to six SATA 6 Gb/s ports that fully support Intel’s Rapid Storage Technology 13.
