Motherboard Performance
Testing the ASRock X870 CHALLENGER WiFi White was accomplished using the benchmarks below. The following components were used: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X, Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB at 6000MT/s (CMH32G5M2D6000C36), TEAMGROUP T-FORCE GR PRO Airflow 2TB Gen5 NVME, and the ASRock RX 7600 XT Steel Legend 16G OC graphics card. Comparison results are discussed from reviews of the ASRock Phantom Gaming X870 RIPTIDE WiFi and ASRock X870 Steel Legend Wifi motherboards, as those boards were equally outfitted.
Below you will find a gallery of result screenshots from our testing protocol and a brief discussion of the results compared to the other motherboards with the same or similar components.











In looking at these results, compared to motherboards we reviewed 18 months ago, overall, they are very consistent. The ASRock X870 CHALLENGER WiFi White did score higher in Blender by a margin of 15%, however. The remainder of benchmark testing was very even across all three motherboards.
VRM Temperature

In this test, we run Cinebench R23 multicore for 20 minutes minimum and then record the temperatures across the heatsinks using HWInfo64. The CPU temperatures reached a maximum of 90.8C, 100% utilization, and 5233MHz. VRM temperatures averaged 33.5C There was no thermal throttle, and no stability issues were encountered.
