ASUS Z590 ROG Maximus XIII Hero Review

CPU and VRM Temperatures

The Adaptive Boost Technology really does smash the hell out of our Core i9-11900K. Remember this is a 360 Radiator with 3000 RPM fans. The air-cooled need not apply. Thankfully it’s only the flagship CPU that has such insane temperatures. On the VRM side of things you can see that all of the Z590 motherboards, even under the harshest conditions we can muster, keep very cool indeed.
