AIDA64 Memory Bandwidth
The NZXT N5 Z690 and N7 Z690 motherboards run on DDR4 memory and as a result they are demolished in this test as they are pitched against a series of motherboards running much faster DDR5 memory.
Power Consumption
The NZXT N5 Z690 delivers a mere 180W to our Core i9-12900K and as a result the system power draw is very low indeed.
CPU Temperature
The combination of lower CPU power levels and a large 360mm Corsair CPU cooler delivers an impressively low CPU temperature.
