ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-A GAMING WIFI D4 review

Asus has been launched ROG STRIX Z690-A Gaming WIFI D4 for 12th gen intel core processors and other lga1700 processors to beat Z690 motherboards that support DDR4 rams and also the DDR5 rams is expensive and still a lot of them not available so I prefer still use DDR4 rams because they are cheaper and I can choose capacity and frequency what I need . let's go to the motherboard specs
