The LGA 1700 socket works together with the newest 12th generation Intel Alder Lake processors, and it's the successor to the LGA 1200. The latest LGA 1700 motherboards support the new DDR5 RAM, so they are future-proof. Do you prefer to work with DDR4 RAM? That's okay, because these motherboards also support that. The Intel Z690 are suitable for gaming enthusiasts and offer extra functions, the B660 are a nice average, and the H610 motherboards offer novice gamers a chance to be part of the latest generation.
