ASUS Z97-A motherboard layout at revision 1.03A, with the name noting that the boardview inside is in FZ format; the RAR archive is 159 KB. FZ is the encrypted layout format used for ASUS boards, readable in OpenBoardView, FlexBV and similar tools. Use it to locate parts by designator, check which components share a net when measuring resistance to ground, and identify test pads near the CPU VRM and PCH. Verify that the PCB is marked Rev 1.03A, because placement can vary between revisions of the Z97-A.
