MSI MAG Z690 Tomahawk WIFI (Intel 1700)

Das Lian Li A4-H2O kostet 149,90 €. Das MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI ist derzeit ab 293,00 € im Preisvergleich gelistet. Das klingt auf den ersten Blick nach einem sehr guten Preis für ein DDR5-Board, doch bekommen wir hier aus dem eigenen Hause für 20 € weniger ein identisches DDR4 Board mit identischer Performance. Den Mehrwert bietet hier ausschließlich die höhere Geschwindigkeit des Arbeitsspeichers.

We know we mentioned this at the start, but we think it's important enough that it deserves highlighting again. The MSI MAG Tomahawk isn't the only Z690 motherboard available that allows you to run the infinitely more affordable, more 'in stock', and perhaps more 'already owned' DDR4 instead of the latest DDR5, but the fact you have a choice is hugely important. Nobody likes being forced into a product choice that isn't necessarily the one they want. It's a stark reminder of your budgetary constraints when you've been looking longingly at one particular motherboard but have to settle for a different one. The Tomahawk says that you might love the all-black design and affordable featuree set, but if you're unable to stretch to, or find in stock, a DDR5 kit then don't worry, just grab the DDR4 one. Consumer friendly practises are things we always enjoy. After all, we're consumers too, not some faceless corporation.
