ASUS SABERTOOTH Z97 MARK 1 (Intel Z97) Motherboard Review
Quote:
When you talk about worst kept secrets, the Haswell Refresh on a whole has to be one. The whole thing got so bad that it just felt like Intel no longer cared what people did with it. If you had it, just review it. They seemed to just throw their hands in the air and give off the vibe that they just don't care what people do.
After testing the i7 4970, which is part of the new Non-K series refreshes, it kind of makes sense why Intel aren't all that fussed about everything just coming out. There's really not a whole lot that you're going to be getting excited about here. If the word refresh was ever appropriate, it was certainly here.
Along with a new line of CPUs coming, though, Intel brought with it the new Z97 platform. The new platform doesn't bring a ton of new features, but there's a couple that we will highlight as we move forward and take a closer look at the board. We don't need to say a whole lot, and considering we've really had a ton of Z97 boards arrive in the last week, we should just get a move on.
So, let's leave it at that and see just what's going on with the ASUS SABERTOOTH Z97 MARK 1 motherboard here today.
