|NGP|N Motherboard: Alder Lake Goes Overkill EVGA Releases Z690 Dark K|NGP|N Motherboard: Alder Lake Overclocking February 19, 2022by Martin 6 Even though these long, cold and dark nights are coming to an end, EVGA has launched the darkest and most evil desktop motherboard to date, the EVGA Z690 Dark K|NGP|N Edition. Designed in collaboration with legendary overclocker Vince 'K|NGP|N' Lucido, the Z690 Dark K|NGP|N Edition has an impressive set of features including DDR5-6600 memory support, three PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots, eight is SATA. ports and a massive 21-stage power transmission to push Alder Lake Intel to extremes.
Built around the high-end Intel Z690 chipset, the EVGA Z690 Dark C Level Executive List K|NGP|N Edition is not a traditional motherboard by any stretch of the imagination. It is based on the E-ATX form factor and has interesting design features, including the LGA1700 shipping socket, which allows extreme overclockers to easily install LN2 pots. To secure the board, EVGA includes a large black metal plate on the back of the board to secure the PCB. It also includes rectangular connectors, including two 8-pin 12V ATX CPU power inputs and a 24-pin 12V ATX motherboard power input, integrated into the PCB with a convenient cutout designed for easier cable management. will be It also includes an impressive package of accessories, including the sleek EVGA test board we've seen in the past.

While the Z690 Dark has a solid spec for enthusiasts, EVGA's real focus with this model is on extreme overclocking. This includes a large 21-phase power transmission that is cooled by an active heatsink with two fans. It also has a 10-layer PCB around the world and in the upper right corner of the overclocker's tool, which consists of two LED debuggers, a power button, a reset button, switches to disable the PCIe slots and slow speed.
