Although they are known more for other of their products such as their boxes or liquid coolers, among other things, NZXT has been with its series of N-series motherboards for a few years now, and in such a competitive market dominated by brands of They have always managed to carve out a niche for themselves with good specifications and very striking designs with black and white covers to match the designs on their boxes.
His latest release is new plates NZXT N7 B650E for the new AMD RYZEN 7000 processors, therefore, we are talking about a board with the new AM5 socket from the chip manufacturer. The chosen chipset is the B650E or B650 Extreme that places it within the mid-premium range, without reaching the most powerful x670/x670E sockets, but with a good set of features and innovations to take full advantage of the Ryzen 7000 based in Zen 4.
Based on a power design with 19 phases, distributed in 16, 2 and 1, it has four slots for DDR5 memory and three M.2 connectors, one of them PCIe 5.0 4x and the other two PCIe 4.0 x4. It also does not lack a PCIe 5.0 X16 slot and two other PCie 4.0 x16 slots. It also includes its own WiFi 6E card with Bluetooth and two antenna sockets.
