ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI Motherboard
It’s designed to break the rules. The ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI motherboard defies expectations by offering power delivery on par with full-scale titans and a stacked thermal array that can easily handle multi-core monsters. With the ground-breaking ROG Hive, a hybrid audio and USB hub with an extra twist an AI Overclocking button that makes tweaking so simple it seems like cheating it also pushes the limits of connection.
ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI Total performance
The ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI is packed with technical innovations that improve CPU and memory performance and provide a strong platform for graphics cards and full-size SSDs, all inside its small chassis.
Overclosing AI
More than ever, tuning is now quicker and more intelligent. By profiling the CPU and cooling system, ASUS AI Overclocking forecasts the ideal setup and maximises system performance. Predicted values may be utilised as a starting point for more testing or they can be activated automatically.
PCIE 5.0
With a distinctive twist, the ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI provides end-to-end PCIe 5.0 compatibility. One of the onboard M.2 slots and the x16 expansion slot are both Gen 5-ready, although the M.2 slot includes extra PCIe 4.0 routing to the chipset.
The M.2 slot can scale up to 16 GB/s read and write rates while it is in Gen 5 mode, giving the user flexibility in how to prioritise their throughput. The expansion slot receives all of the Gen 5 bandwidth if the M.2 slot employs PCIe 4.0, allowing for unrestricted graphics card performance.
ASUS ROG STRIX Z790 I DESIGN POWER
POWERFUL DESIGN
Enough current is delivered by 10 + 1 + 1 power stages, each rated for up to 105A, to easily run the most powerful Intel 13th Gen CPUs through any task.
DUTY CAPACITORS AND ALLOY CHOKES
Superior chokes and robust capacitors are designed to withstand high temperatures, allowing for performance that beyond industry norms.
PROCOOL II 8-PIN POWER CONNECTOR
An accurate construction ensures that a ProCool II connection makes flush contact with PSU power lines. Electrical impedance is reduced and heat dissipation is enhanced by a metal sheath.
TEN-LAYER printed circuit board
The CPU has additional leeway to overclock as the multi-layered printed circuit board architecture swiftly drains heat surrounding the voltage regulators, improving system stability overall.
ROG STRIX Z790-I gaming WIFI MEMORY
ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI DDR5
DDR5 is not an exception in ROG’s long history of exhibiting the quickest memory performance. Now that enthusiast-grade kits have been pushed far above 7 GT/s on the ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI, it’s possible to achieve even higher speeds with future DIMMs thanks to enhanced signal routing. Expert users may put their skills to the test by adjusting the vast range of tuning options available in the UEFI.
AEMP II
A unique hardware and firmware approach for overclocking generic memory modules is ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP). The second edition of AEMP makes use of the PCB trace optimization’s of the ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI to push frequencies higher than ever before and enables automated tuning of kits during system startup. In a quad-DIMM configuration, AEMP II can even overclock mixed kits, and the extensive library of compatibility now encompasses almost all DDR5 modules that do not have XMP support.
ROG STRIX Z790 I AIR COOLING
ARRAY OF VRM COOLING
The power solution is covered with sizable heatsinks, which are supported by a silent thermal system that draws heat from the core and exhausts it via a vented top, keeping the VRM cold even in systems with limited airflow.
M.2 HEATSINK STACK
Inside M.A innovative space-saving solution places 2 slots between thick heatsinks above the chipset. High-performance drives retain optimal performance via the use of a small active cooling system, which ensures thermal efficiency.
Processor Fan Header
CPU coolers can easily access a PWM/DC fan header, which is positioned close to the top of the motherboard.
AIO PUMP FAN HEADER
Self-contained water-cooling installations are connected via a specialised PWM/DC header.
HEADERS FOR 4-PIN FAN
A chassis fan header on the ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI can automatically identify any PWM or DC fan attached to it.
ROG STRIX Z790 I WIFI RUNNING AN INTERACTIVE
The ROG FPS-II card makes building simpler, the ROG Strix Hive graces your desktop with excellent audio and control, and the most recent Thunderbolt and WiFi compatibility allows you to establish quicker connections. All of the ATX experience, elegantly downsized into a mini-ITX.
HIVE OF ROG STRIX
With the all-new ROG Strix Hive, essential controls and I/O are now easily accessible, transferred from the claustrophobic SFF chassis to a small desktop peripheral. A large volume dial, diagnostic LEDs, and buttons that are easy to do yourself are all moved to the forefront. Numerous I/O ports on the sides manage audio input and output and provide handy connection for grab-and-go devices.
Contains what?
CODEC ALC4050 & ESS SABRE9260Q DAC
Generally, the PCB of the motherboard contains the audio components. By flipping the script, the ROG Strix Hive transfers all audio processing to an external module. An ESS SABRE9260Q DAC and an ALC4050 codec inside provide clear high-resolution audio with 32-bit/ 384 kHz playback and 118 dB SNR output and 94 dB SNR input. S/PDIF out, which accepts 3.5mm mic input, and a second 3.5mm combo jack, which may accommodate microphones or headphones, are included in the I/O.
TECHNOLOGY HYPER-GROUNDING
ROG Hyper-Grounding technology, which separates analogue and digital current return lines across distinct layers to minimise noise, minimise crosstalk, and provide purer sound, is a feature of the Hive’s audio PCB.
Card ROG FPS-II
By grouping I/O into a vertically mounted card, the ROG FPS-II card neatly manages cables and conserves crucial on-board space. Installation in confined spaces is made much simpler by the ability to make connections prior to the card being inserted. Two SATA ports, an Alteration mode switch, two USB 2.0 connectors (supporting up to three USB 2.0 connections), a CPU OV jumper for severe overclocking, and front panel headers are all included on board.
Thunderbolt
Two type-C Thunderbolt 4 ports the newest ultra-speed devices and SSDs may receive up to 40 Gbps of bidirectional bandwidth from each connection. Up to two external 4K monitors may be used with both ports, and PCIe bandwidth can reach up to 32 Gbps.
NETWORKING
ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI 6E
Utilising recently released 6 GHz spectrum, onboard Wi-Fi 6E technology offers up to seven 160 MHz channels for faster throughput and improved performance in crowded wireless scenarios.
The availability and functionalities of Wi-Fi 6E are contingent upon legal restrictions and its coexistence with 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
Ethernet 2.5 GHz Intel
The many benefits of onboard Intel 2.5 Gbps Ethernet include high-resolution video streaming, quick file transfers, and low-latency gaming.
ACT STYLISHLY
The Strix Z790-I’s soft accents and black shrouds make it a strong base for almost any setup, particularly when combined with the wide array of products in the ROG ecosystem.
ID DESIGN
The ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I Gaming WIFI has a stealthy shape that disappears into the shadows of most SFF setups because to its linear vents and soft grid-like texturing. Its actual colours, however, come to life when some light strikes the side of its M.2 shroud, revealing a prismatic shine glinting off the highly reflective aluminium that outlines the engraved ROG logo.
COMPATIBILITY OF COOLER
Because the ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-I gaming WIFI has the same LGA 1700 socket as the Z690 models, it may be used with any cooler that was compatible with the previous generation, including ASUS and ROG’s whole lineup of AIO products.
ECOSYSTEM
Awaiting is the ROG Strix ecosystem upgrade your experience with ROG Strix. Experience compatibility, control, and complimentary aesthetics across AIO coolers, cases, peripherals, and much more. Compared to other brands, ROG provides the most options.
