Even though they are still virtually nonexistent, I'm holding out hope I will be able to own a TUF 4090 soon (mostly because they and the (overpriced?) Strix are the only 4090s that
might be able to switch their fifth video port without needing to unplug cables -
if anyone can confirm this is really possible, I would hugely appreciate it!) Unimpressed with other motherboard designs, I wouldn't mind doing an all-TUF build, but I'm looking to squeeze every drop of performance out of current and future DDR5 RAM, which apparently means I should really be on the Z790 platform.
So,
where is the DDR5 version of the TUF Z790 motherboard?The D
4 Z790 is out, and the Z
690 DDR5 TUF motherboard has been on shelves for a while, and even the (overpriced??) Strix line has a DDR5 Z790 available, but I can find no evidence of the TUF Z790 D
5 ever being sold.
People on Reddit seem convinced this is a forthcoming SKU, but even months after that confirmation it still hasn't appeared on Newegg, Amazon, or even out of stock in Microcenter.
Is the TUF Z790 D
5 vaporware? :confused:
