The Intel Z590 Motherboard Overview: 50+ Motherboards Detailed
by Gavin Bonshor on January 19, 2021 10:15 AM ESTEVGA Z590 Dark
EVGA plans to unveil a pair of new models. The first is the very recognizable EVGA Z590 Dark, which targets extreme overclockers and enthusiasts with deep pockets. The most notable design traits include an overclocker's toolkit in the top right-hand corner, including a pair of two-digit LED debuggers, a power switch, and a reset button.
At present, EVGA hasn't given us any technical details about the Z590 Dark, but we can see a couple of notable inclusions. There are eight SATA ports, including support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 arrays, with two memory slots that will likely support some of the fastest DDR4 memory on the market. Designed more for overclockers looking to squeeze every last drop of performance from the silicon, the Z590 Dark has right-angled power connectors including two 8-pin 12 V EPS ATX power inputs for the CPU, with a 24-pin 12 V ATX delivering power to the board. It looks as though the board includes two full-length PCIe slots, with an open-ended half-length PCIe slot, with any M.2 slots likely to be located in between the full-length slots and under the large heatsink.
Once EVGA makes more details available, we will update this page.

I'm a bit surprised they went to an x8 3.0 link on the chipset instead of an x4 4.0 one, even if everything coming off of the chipset is still limited to 3.0 speed.QinX - Tuesday, January 19, 2021 - link
Might be because it makes routing the traces easier, they don't have to adhere to the PCIe 4.0 signal requirements. Downside would be that more pins are required.scottlarm - Saturday, January 23, 2021 - link

Other being quite boring platform , there is noticeable lack of M-ATX offerings.Chaitanya - Tuesday, January 19, 2021 - link
Also it seems like even with properly finned heatsinks Gigabyte Aorus master requires a fan to cool VRMs which is not a good sign.g85222456 - Tuesday, January 19, 2021 - link
