The black and gold theme is back for Intel 8 Series. Can the Z87 Extreme4 motherboard meet the high expectations for LGA1150? Tested with Intel Core i7 4770K.
Intel’s Haswell architecture has mainstream leanings. And yet some of the motherboards out there are really high-end. Today we're looking at five platforms under the $160 mark that hopefully put some value back into being an enthusiast.
This board is built on the new Intel Z87 chipset. It is a mainstream model: not two simple to suffer from lack of public interest to it, yet not too complex to scare potential users away by excessive onboard technologies and high price.
