Awards

AXE Diamond

Because of all the above, the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 APEX motherboard goes off with the highest accolade.

Platinum award

All in all, I achieved incredible results on it, and I literally let it overclock my processor, SO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE KOBAJAGI, BUT THE PLATE DETERMINED THAT MY REFRIGERATOR COULD ENDURE IT POSSIBILITIES, MADE BY SOME INTERNAL BENCHMARK IN BIOS AND CONCLUDED THAT 5.2ghZ IS WHAT IT CAN OFFER ME. I HONESTLY WANT TO SEE THIS ON EVERY PLATE.

Gold Award
