[開箱] ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-A GAMING WIFI D4

前言

Intel 13 代還沒正式上市,被各種消息燒到換換病發作,但傳出 700 系列主機板沒有大升級,價格倒是一樣貴得感人,DDR5 的效能與價格優勢距離 DDR4 還有不小的距離,因此先趁 Z690 價格還不錯時先入手備著了。

2022 年前後分別入手了 i7-12700 與 i5-12400,因不是買 K 版玩超頻所以選 B660,當時購入的是是 ASUS ROG STRIX B660-A GAMING WIFI D4,挑選上基本就是 80% 外觀 20% 其它,因為是白色控,看來看去這片比較順眼就入手了。

而這次是為了玩 i7-13700k,超頻需要選 Z 版,就還是選一樣系列的 Z690 了。

開箱

外盒包裝

外盒正面,基本與 ROG B660-A 無異,個人很喜歡。

外盒背面,一些重點特色介紹。

側面視角,高識別度的完整型號以及產品標籤貼紙。

內容物

打開盒裝第一眼,標準的包裝形式。

其他配件放在下層

內容物大合照

內容物清單:

  • 主機板
  • SATA 傳輸線 *4 (平頭/90度頭各 2 條)
  • M.2 橡膠墊 *3
  • M.2 Q-Latch *2 (標準 *1 / M.2 背板專用 *1)
  • 束線帶 1 包
  • Wi-Fi 天線 (線長約 80cm,SMA 連接器)
  • ROG 鑰匙圈
  • ROG STRIX 感謝卡
  • 使用手冊
  • 驅動 / 公用程式光碟
  • ROG STRIX 裝飾貼紙

主機板本體

正面照,檔板、VRM 散熱為一體式設計。

Z690 的 VRM 散熱器較高,我使用的利民 Peerless Assassin 120 ARGB 塔式散熱器其中一邊會卡到 CPU 正上方的 VRM 散熱器部分,需要轉 180 度才可以安裝。

挑選散熱器時需要注意散熱器會不會卡到上方的部分。

一體式擋板設計,上面銀色的部分有 RGB LED,有貼上塑膠膜保護。

M.2 Shield 有三條,可幫助 M.2 SSD 散熱。

將全部的 M.2 Shield 卸除後如下圖所示。

  • 總共可安裝 4 條 M.2 SSD。
  • 其中最上面的 M.2 插槽是走 CPU PCI-E 5.0 通道,理論效能最好,但 SSD 越高速相對發熱量也越大,因此在 M.2 Shield 與主機板上分別各有一條導熱墊做成雙面導熱,散熱較果更好。
  • 其他三組插槽由 PCH 提供,速率是 PCI-E 4.0,規格低一階,只有單面散熱,導熱墊貼在 M.2 Shield 上。
  • 全部皆採用 Q-LATCH 快拆設計,好評!

右側晶片組的散熱器上有造型魔鬼氈,可協助固定線材(雖然幾乎用不到,線都藏到其他地方去了)。

移除造型魔鬼氈,底下的晶片組散熱片有 ZDRAVLJICAGOEMON CITY 字樣,皆為 ROG SAGA 虛擬世界相關的詞彙。

個人是不太了解,花了一點時間逛了 ROG SAGA 網站,這兩個詞彙意思應該分別是:

  • ZDRAVLJICA: 代表的是一間名為 Gigacorp ZDRAVLJICA] 的企業,沒有企業相關介紹,只知道有投資政府設立軍用太空站。
  • GOEMON CITY: 一座地下都市,設定上是位於日本神奈川山區箱根的廢墟附近,以傳說中的義警石川五右衛門命名,是東京歌舞伎町區的擴大娛樂區。

記憶體插槽右下角有一個 Q-RELEASE 按鈕,為 PCI-E 插槽的快拆設計,現在的顯示卡一個比一個還要大,安裝了顯示卡又安裝了 CPU 塔式散熱器的話,要拆下顯卡時幾乎沒有空間可以將手伸進去,我都要拿一把尺去慢慢的撬開卡扣。

現在只要輕輕壓下 Q-RELEASE 按鈕,卡扣就打開了,好評!

簡單總結

優點

  • 漂亮的外觀
  • 一體式擋板
  • Wi-Fi 6
  • Q-LATCH 快拆設計
  • Q-RELEASE 快拆設計
  • BIOS 可調項目豐富
  • 內建 MemTest86

缺點

  • CPU_OPT 風扇轉速無法控制
  • Armoury Crate 相容性極差,風扇轉速設定無法控制
  • Sonic Studio 軟體常出現 無法偵測到硬體 而無法調整設定,需重新開機
  • 使用藍芽耳機有底噪聲
  • 價格偏高

最後一張與 ROG STRIX B660-A GAMING WIFI D4 的合照,服役 10 個月後正式交棒。
