EVGA reveals its X570 FTW WIFI motherboards, the 2nd AMD Ryzen mainboard

EVGA launched its first Ryzen/AM4 motherboard earlier this year with their X570 DARK, focusing on professional overclockers and those who wanted to squeeze every ounce of potential they could out of AMD’s Ryzen 5000 series processors. Today, EVGA’s AM4 offerings are becoming more mainstream, thanks to their new X570 FTW WIFI motherboards. 

Yes, EVGA’s $499.99 pricing for this motherboard is far from mainstream, but with this board, EVGA has created something that is much better suited to most high-end Ryzen users.  For starters, this board has four DIMM slots, compared to the X570 DARK’s two, two PCIe 4.0 enabled M.2 slots and eight SATA ports. 

Cooling-wise, this motherboard features a finstack VRM heatsink and a fanless chipset heatsink design, differentiating EVGA’s design from most older X570 offerings. 

For WIFI, EVGA’s X570 FTW WIFI uses Intel’s AC200 Wi-Fi 6 controller and Bluetooth 5.2 module for connectivity, and standard Gigabit ethernet. Sadly, EVGA has not splashed out on 2.5GbE or higher-end ethernet standards.
