Asus Z170-A is a desktop motherboard.

The catalog has 4 boardview files and 2 BIOS files for it, posted between 2021 and 2023 across 2 Telegram channels. Each download button opens the original Telegram post.

File names mention 3 board revisions (Rev 1.03, Rev 1.03D and Rev 1.04). Check the revision printed on your PCB before relying on a boardview or flashing a BIOS dump — How to Open .FZ Boardview Files explains why it matters.

The boardview is packed in an archive and the file name does not say which format is inside; most open in OpenBoardView or FlexBV. What Is a Boardview File and Why You Need One lists the common formats.

Read and save the original chip contents before you write anything to it — Keeping the Windows Product Key (MSDM) When Reflashing a BIOS.

The Asus Z170-A boardview comes inside an archive whose name does not state the format. Unpack it and check the extension; most laptop boardviews open in OpenBoardView or FlexBV. See What Is a Boardview File and Why You Need One.
