With the launch of Coffee Lake, Intel has finally brought their first six-core and twelve-thread processors to the mainstream market. A few months after the launch of the first batch of motherboards, ASUS is ready to release several updated models.


ASUS is planning to add more Coffee Lake-S motherboards. The list includes four high-end ROG Maximus motherboards and four mid-range ROG Strix models. According to latest rumors, with the Z390 chipset Intel adds an updated version of current Z370. The Z390 chipset comes with native support for USB 3.1 Gen2, Wireless-AC 2x2 160MHz and Bluetooth 5. Furthermore with the launch of Z390, Intel might add the first mainstream eight-core processor.
