Before You Begin…
The EVGA Z490 DARK sets the standard for motherboards based on the
Intel
®
Z490 chipset. Much like the EVGA Z390 DARK, its predecessor, the
Z490 DARK is designed for ultra-enthusiasts looking to pull every last ounce of
performance from the new 10th Gen Intel
®
10-Core CPUs. The Z490 DARK
features an 18-Phase VRM design, along with two right-angle 8pin High
Current connectors to provide maximum power for overclocking. Two SMT
DIMMs enable high-frequency and low latency RAM overclocking. The 10-
layer PCB is studded with multiple sensors to track a variety of temperatures
and voltages across the board, which can be displayed on the dual-LED
displays.
For its other features, the Z490 DARK contains Realtek Audio with EVGA
NU Audio, one Intel
®
2.5 GbE NIC, one Intel
®
Gigabit NIC, mini-Display
Port, onboard power/reset/CMOS buttons, PCIe disable switches, triple BIOS
support, 8 smart fan headers, and many more premium features. If you’ve been
holding out for a serious motherboard to upgrade, the time is at hand.
Lastly, a motherboard is only as good as its BIOS, and the EVGA Z490 DARK
features EVGA’s newest UEFI/BIOS GUI with a focus on overclocking and
functionality in a lean, straightforward package. You won’t need to be an expert
to configure your motherboard, but if you are, you’ll find features unavailable
anywhere else.
