Intel’s 11th Gen Rocket Lake-S CPUs are slated to launch at the end of this quarter with an aim to take back the gaming crown from AMD. A new core architecture along with even higher boost clocks are two key highlights of Intel’s new processors. However, with every new CPU family, there’s usually a new chipset and therefore, a new motherboard lineup from different board partners.
Three of Intel’s primary partners have confirmed the pricing of their next-gen Z590 offerings. These include MSI, ASUS, and ASRock. Both the US and EU pricing has been detailed, and they’re as follows:

As you can see, the Z590 boards start at around just $200 and go as high as $1,500+. Most of the popular enthusiast products such as the Z4590 Taichi, ROG Maximus Hero, and Apex, and the MSI MEG ACE cost around the $500 mark just like their X570 counterparts. The absolute top-end parts do, however, come at a rather ridiculous premium. (adrianflux.co.uk) You should be able to buy a Z590 board starting from early Feb or perhaps even by the end of this month.
