Not sure about the question, but you can look for Z370 vs Z390 and decide: https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Intel-Z370-vs-Z390-Chipset-Comparison-1231/ or similar.

sorry my man i was trying to say do you happen to now the difference if i were to put the 8700k in socket for a z390 vs an z370 and would i see worse performance with putting an 8700k into an z390 mother board such as the z390-e

 

[alexoiu]

No, at least the same performance, I'd say.

 

[sizzling]

The cpu would perform the same, you could stick it in any 300 series (including B & H) and it would run the same at stock speeds. The difference comes with overclocking and a good quality Z370/Z390 will be better at overclocking than a poor quality Z370/Z390.

The Z390 has extra features https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Intel-Z370-vs-Z390-Chipset-Comparison-1231/
