ASUS, MSI & ASRock Z590 Motherboard Prices Detailed – Over $1000 US For Flagship Products

Various motherboard manufacturers and retailers have started providing pricing information for their Z590 motherboard lineups. ASUS & MSI confirmed the prices for several boards a while back but we also got a word from ASRock on their recently revealed Z590 motherboards.

While we have covered all the Z590 chipset based motherboards for Intel's 10th & 11th Gen CPUs over here, we didn't cover the prices back then since they weren't revealed yet. But now, retailers and board makers have provided us with brief information on the prices of their upcoming boards.

MSI Z590 Motherboard Prices

Starting with MSI, the company listed down a total of 12 Z590 motherboards along with their prices which have seen a definite increase over their Z490 predecessors. The prices aren't that bad if you look in the mainstream and budget segment which mostly stick to the $200-$300 US range. Boards such as the Z590-A PRO and Z590 PRO WiFi will hit an MSRP of $189 and $209 US, respectively. The MAG lineup starts at $229 US and goes up to $239 US since it has only two models listed as of now.

The more premium MPG and MEG lineups feature the most expensive variants. The MSI MPG Z590 lineup starts at $264 US so we are already looking at a $250 US+ tier and goes all the way up to the $324 US Z590 Gaming Carbon WiFi. The MEG lineup starts at $329 US but the most expensive Z590 motherboards in this lineup are the ACE which retails at $489 US and the GODLIKE which retails at $1019 US. Both, the ACE and GODLIKE, come with higher prices than their predecessors, the ACE in Z490 variation was priced at $399 US but that has now increased to $489 US which is a premium of $90 US. The Z490 GODLIKE had an MSRP of around $749 US while the Z590 GODLIKE has a $250 US premium.

MSI, like ASUS earlier, mentions that the following reason for the price increase of its products:

  • Covid19 causes supply chain disruption
  • Cost increase (PCB, VRM, Audio, etc)
  • Short term: Chinese New Year
  • Shipment Cost Increase

    ASUS on the other hand has listed 13 Z590 motherboards along with their prices but in Euros. The lineup starts at 189 Euro and goes all the way up to 1516 Euro. The most entry-level models which include the PRIME Z590-P and PRIME Z590M-PLUS will retail for 201 & 189 Euro, respectively. ASUS TUF Gaming models will start at 239 Euro and 252 Euro. The premium PRIME Z590-A will retail for 277 Euro.

    Coming to the ROG STRIX lineup, we have motherboards in very similar price ranges which start at 328 Euro and go as high as 378 Euro. Lastly, we have the ROG Maximus XIII lineup which starts at a price of 505 Euro. That's what both the APEX and HERO models will cost this time and are a definite increase over their predecessors. The Extreme models are the most expensive motherboards this time around with the standard variant priced at 960 Euros and the Glacial variant positioned as a 1500+ Euro product.

    ASRock Z590 Motherboard Prices

    Lastly, ASRock mentioned prices for 5 of their Z590 motherboards. Their lineup starts at $194.99 US with the Z590 Steel Legend and goes up to $429.99 US for the Taichi model. ASRock has its flagship priced under $500 US and the mainstream lineup below $300 US. That doesn't mean that they did not increase the prices of their boards, in fact, the Z490 Taichi cost $369.99 US at launch so the new Z590 Taichi is $60 US expensive than its predecessor.

    We have also asked Gigabyte for the prices of their Z590 lineup and they should be providing us soon so look back for more pricing info.
