NZXT N7 Z690 Motherboard Review

Power Consumption

The N7 was on the more power-hungry side of boards when we look at the idle usage, though it didn’t reach the top of the chart but was higher than the average power draw.

We had previously found that our results for the N7 and N5 boards were way off where would expect them to be, and after a BIOS flash we have started seeing scores that are more in line with what we would expect. Now that we are getting the proper results, we are seeing that the N7 is very low powered when compared to the other boards we tested, this is a nice change of pace from our previous scores where these boards performed the worst by a large margin.
