So where is your Best Motherboards for 9900K roundup review ? Best Value ones and best top ones only for i9 9900K?
I think the best I can do is get the Z390 awards into the Best Motherboards coverage
So far we have the Gigabyte Z390 Designare and ASRock Z390 Phantom Gaming ITX/ac, but those are both in the over-$200 class.
Z390 Motherboards
Asus has 21
MSI 11
Gigabyte 13
Asrock 11
I noticed that roundups in the last two years became very scarce and not like the old glory times of Tomshardware and other sites ..
What is the reason ? They dont send you free motherboards for testing anymore ? or is it not profitable as before to review alot of products ?
you can easily ask for Hardware donation for testing from Hardware Sellers in return of Ads for their sites , like newegg or Amazon or what ever.
First of all, we have not awarded 21 Asus boards. And our "best motherboards" is an awards showcase. So it needs to be updated with the two Z390 boards that did get awards.
Poor traffic is the reason we don't do many roundups. Most of our traffic comes from search engines now. More people are searching for reviews by motherboard name than for roundups. And the easiest way to get a search engine to promote a Gigabyte Z390 Designare review, for example, is to write an article called the Gigabyte Z390 Designare review.
So without further adieu, here are motherboard reviews:
