While Intel was doing truly well with the i7 9700K processor that was the quickest i7 processor at any point made with 8 centers that included the most noteworthy lift clock accelerate to 4.9GHz, Ryzen third gen processors made some great weight on Intel to discharge a superior CPU in 2020.
Welcome the i7 10700K which currently includes 8 centers and 16 strings that were absent on the 9700K. This is one of the individuals from the comet lake processor family and highlights base/support clock speeds as 3.80GHz/5.10GHz which is the most noteworthy we have ever observed on an i7 processor or on some other standard processor till now.
Going above 5.10GHz from 3.80GHz on all centers is unquestionably difficult and you will require a decent damn motherboard with strong VRM to accomplish this. Luckily, the VRM stuff is dealt with appropriately by practically all the motherboard producers. The rundown underneath incorporates all the top best motherboard for i7 9700k unable motherboards for the i7 10700K that won’t burn up all available resources and won’t limit your overclocking capacity.
By moderate I don’t mean a sub $200 board but instead something that you can bear the cost of by setting aside some cash and won’t cost you like the ultra-very good quality motherboards that are sold at a much costly value contrasted with the highlights they bring.
1. ASRock Z490 PG Velocita
Beginning from the lower-end side on the rundown, we have the ASRock Z490 PG Velocita which is an intriguing motherboard among all the motherboards in the ASRock’s Z490 motherboard setup. It includes a 13 force stage VRM structure with respectable heatsinks that utilization a copper heat pipe underneath for better warmth scattering. It’s unquestionably not the best heatsink but rather ought to be sufficient for a halfway degree of overclocking.
The board has some great locally available investigating highlights. As you are not simply going to let your i7 10700K sit inactive without outperforming its production line clock speeds, utilize those installed investigating highlights on the off chance that you are going for a propelled degree of overclocking else you will approve of the BIOS itself and on the off chance that you simply need to turn up the timekeepers a tad.
These installed highlights incorporate Power/Reset catches and a LED blunder code show on the correct base corner. Tragically, there are no EZ troubleshoot LEDs or Bios update or switch alternatives even at the I/O. This I believe is a significant downside contrasted with different motherboards on the rundown. This is the main motherboard from ASRock that I would really suggest you in the event that you don’t have some other alternatives and there is no other board from ASRock that gives you better an incentive to cash when contrasted with the sheets by different makers and that is frustrating.
2. MSI MEG Z490 Unify
I referenced about the MEG Z490 Unify in my past post on Z490 motherboards. This one is the most practical motherboard from MSI that has highlights proportional to the Z490 ACE despite the fact that it’s $100 less expensive. The main contrast is the inbuilt RGB lighting and rest everything is equivalent to you see.
This load up has a 16 force stage VRM with 90A Smart Power Stage that is found on top of the line motherboards that is truly solid in solid overclocking for a more drawn out period. These are cooled by some thick heatsinks that have pattern designs for more wind current and a copper heat pipe at the base interfacing both the heatsinks.
The board has 3x PCI-E x16 spaces that help 2 Way Nvidia SLI and 3 Way AMD Crossfire, 2x PCI-E x1 openings for more PCI gadgets and 3x M.2 spaces for quick stockpiling gadgets. The board has more USB ports than the PG Velocita and furthermore has an inbuilt Wifi connector that bolsters Wifi 6 and a 2.5G Realtek Lan controller.
The board is finished as far as locally available investigating highlights like Power/Reset catches, EZ Debug LEDs, LED post code show, Bios Flashback button for refreshing Bios, and Clear CMOS button at the I/O on the off chance that you need to reset BIOS settings if something turns out badly.
16 force stages are unquestionably better than the 13 stages on the PG Velocita and all these extraordinary installed investigating highlights improve decision over the ASRock board. Luckily, this motherboard just expenses $40 more than the Velocita and as I would see it, you ought to get this one on the off chance that you would prefer not to bargain with the progressed investigating highlights.
3. Gigabyte Z490 Aorus Ultra
Gigabyte doesn’t have a great deal of good options in its Z490 index and its hard to pick one as the great ones are costly. The best one is the Aorus Extreme yet that is an incredibly costly board that I wouldn’t suggest for the i7 10700K. Z490 Aorus Ultra, then again, is a board that you can manage the cost of and is similar to the ASRock Z490 PG Velocita with certain highlights updated.
It has a 12 force stage VRM that is useful for middle of the road level overclocking with some recognized and thick heatsinks not at all like what you will discover on different motherboards. They are huge and have a decent structure for a great deal of air to go through. There are 3x PCI-E x16 openings that help 2 Way Nvidia SLI and 2 Way AMD Crossfire X yet sadly no PCI-E x1 space.
For investigating you will get a solitary LED show for perusing blunder codes and no locally available investigating highlight with the exception of the Bios Flash catch. This is odd and frustrating however it has a ton of USB ports at the I/O and an inbuilt wifi connector that bolsters Intel Wifi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0. This board will cost you $300 which is equivalent to the Z490 Unify from MSI however you will get inbuilt RGB lighting with the Unify doesn’t have yet then again you lose numerous useful helpful highlights.
4. Asus ROG Strix Z490-E
The best motherboard you can purchase for the i7 10700K at the least cost is the Asus ROG Strix Z490-E Gaming which in spite of the fact that isn’t unreasonably modest however will in any case be viewed as a less expensive alternative for the exhibition it gives you when contrasted with the other very good quality sheets. The board costs $300 which is equivalent to the cost of the past two motherboards however the highlights are well to such an extent, that you may very well need to skirt the entirety of the previously mentioned sheets and purchase this straight away.

With 16 force stages in its VRM, it’s a brute in overclocking and in spite of the fact that I don’t think the evaluated Amp support for the Mosfets are as high as the ones utilized on the Z490 Unify, it is still far superior to the ASRock Z490 PG Velocita and Z490 Ultra from Gigabyte. The heatsinks are thick and have a solitary copper heat pipe that reaches out to the chipset for more colling.
The board has some incredible style with the LED ROG Logo and inbuilt RGB lighting on the I/O spread and on the chipset. It has 3x PCI-E x16 openings that help 2 way Nvidia SLI and 3 way AMD Crossfire and there are 3x PCI-E x1 spaces for other development cards. For investigating, you will get a Q-Code LED show and Debug LEDs. Sadly, there are no Power/Reset fastens on it and you should work with the jumper or something through which you can trigger those headers.
At the I/O you will get a Bios Flashback button however no Clear CMOS button for simple reset and a ton of USB ports that incorporate a Type C port for peripherals. It has an inbuilt wifi connector with Wifi 6 help and an Intel 2.5 Gigabit LAN port. This is a general best motherboard for the i7 10700k and a solid contender to the MSI’s Unify at a similar cost.
Conclusion
There are such a large number of choices for the i7 10700K yet the one that can furnish you with the most exhibition without going through a silly measure of cash ought to be the one you should purchase. I have recorded the main 4 LGA 1200 Z490 motherboards for this 8 center processor and have drilled down the reasons why you ought to get one of these. On the off chance that you need to examine, at that point you can utilize the remarks area underneath.
