EVGA at its Computex 2017 booth showed off its premium socket LGA2066 motherboard, the X299 FTW. The company also unveiled its micro-ATX X299 Micro. Built in the ATX form-factor, the X299 FTW is positioned below the X299 DARK, and features a clean layout with conveniently located connectors. It draws power from a pair of 8-pin EPS connectors besides an optional 6-pin PCIe, and the 24-pin ATX. The CPU socket is flanked by eight DDR4 DIMM slots, and four PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots. An open-ended x4 and another x1 make for the rest of its expansion.
The X299 FTW is characterized by a groovy RGB LED lighting system that covers not just the PCH heatsink, but also the CPU VRM heatsink, and the I/O shroud, which runs the entire length of the motherboard. Storage connectivity includes two 32 Gb/s M.2 slots (a 110 mm and an 80 mm, each); two 32 Gb/s U.2 ports, and eight SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Other connectivity includes two USB 3.1 ports (including a type-C port), eight USB 3.0 ports, high-grade onboard audio with Realtek ALC1220 codec; and two GbE network interfaces.
The X299 Micro, on the other hand, is EVGA's only micro-ATX socket LGA2066 offering, for now. It draws power from a single 8-pin EPS connector, besides the 24-pin ATX. The CPU socket is flanked by four DDR4 DIMM slots supporting quad-channel memory; and three PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots, two of which are x16, and the third being x4. Storage connectivity includes a 32 Gb/s M.2 slot, a 32 Gb/s U.2 port, and six SATA 6 Gb/s ports. High-grade audio and Intel i219-V-driven GbE make for the rest of it. The VRM heatsink and I/O shroud are studded with RGB multi-color LEDs.
