NZXT launches its N7 Z490 motherboard for Comet Lake processors
Unlike other NZXT motherboards, the N7 Z490 has not been designed in collaboration with ECS. This time, NZXT has partnered with ASRock to create their N7 Z490, offering consumers stronger BIOS support and design elements which are more focused on overclocking.Â
 Â
The NZXT N7 Z490 is designed to be integrated into the NZXT CAM ecosystem, allowing users to easily control their fan speeds and RGB lighting with a single utility. NZXT’s N7 Z490 also features support for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth V5.1, both of which are built into the motherboard. Through NZXT’s CAM software, users can control up to 4 RGB lighting channels and seven fans. Additional fans and RGB lights can be controlled using NZXT fan controllers or lighting kits. Â
Like NZXT’s previous motherboard designs, the N7 Z490 features NZXT’s clean styling, offering users an integrated I/O shield to simplify the PC building process. NZXT will also release this motherboard with both black and white colour options. Â
NZXT has confirmed that its N7 Z490 motherboard will release in the US for $229.99. Â
