Designed for next generation hardware, the EVGA Z170 FTW features a new BIOS GUI interface designed to be fast and have the best overclocking support and functionality. A highly efficient VRM provides the cleanest power to the CPU possible, fed through a CPU socket that has 1.5X the amount of gold content for improved signal quality. A total of 4 DIMM slots support up to 64GB of DDR4 memory and the PCI Express layout is optimized for improved lane distribution and better performance with native support for NVIDIA SLI technology.
Intel® Z170 Chipset
6 Layer PCBHigh layer count enhances stability both for heavy loads as well as high overclocking.
2-Way SLI® SupportThe EVGA Z170 FTW is rated for up to 2-Way SLI® + Physx® to handle the most demanding video loads.
M.2 SupportThe Z170 FTW includes support for full size storage and WiFi from the M.2 jacks.
High Gold Content For CPU SocketHigher volume of precious metal (150% Gold) used in the sockets greatly improves the conductivity and produces a cleaner signal due to less resistance / impedance.
Onboard Power, Reset and CMOS Reset ButtonsWhen testing on the Z170, or running it in a benching environment where you do not need to worry about wiring the board to a case to have access to power and reset buttons, they are built onto the board.
6 Phase PWMAn 6 Phase PWM helps to ensure that the power reaching the processor is clean and stable.
Top Notch Integrated PeripheralsThe Z170 FTW is not just focused on the upper end of extreme builds, but also with the smaller components as well. 8 Channel HD audio and an integrated Intel NICs to ensure you have the best quality sound and network connection right out of the box.
