ASUS ROG Strix Z790-I GAMING WIFI Intel Mini-ITX Motherboard
GET READY FOR THE NEWEST GENERATION
Rules are made to be broken. Smashing the conventions of what a mini-ITX motherboard can do, the ROG Strix Z790-I’s power delivery rivals that of full-scale titans and its stacked thermal array is more than a match for multi-core behemoths. It also expands the boundaries of connectivity, with the innovative ROG Hive, a hybrid audio and USB hub with an added twist – an AI Overclocking button makes tuning so easy, it feels like cheating.
Teamed Power Architecture and Power Solution
1.Intel® Socket LGA 1700 for 13th & 12th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors,
and Pentium® Gold, and Celeron® Processors.
2. Dual Channel Memory, 2 x DIMM Max. 64GB, DDR5 7600+ MT/s (OC) /
Supports Intel® Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) and OPTIMEM II
3. 10+1 Power Stages
4. Expansion Slots – • PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot (x16, x8/x8)
5. Two M.2 Slots – • 1 x PCIe 5.0 (x4) M.2 2280 • 1 x PCIe 4.0 (x4) M.2 2280
PUSH FREQUENCY AND TIMINGS TO THE MAX
Throughout its compact frame, the Strix Z790-I teems with engineering tweaks that boost CPU and memory performance and lay a potent foundation for full-size SSDs and graphics cards. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits.
DDR5 STRENGTH & AEMP II
ROG has a long legacy of flexing the fastest memory performance, and DDR5 is no outlier. Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits have been driven far beyond the 7 GT/s mark on the Strix Z790-I.
AEMP II allows for automatic tuning of kits during system startup and leverages the PCB trace optimizations of the Strix Z790-I to push frequencies higher than ever before.
HIGH-QUALITY COMPONENTS
1. Power Architecture 10+1 power stages
2. Alloy chokes and durable capacitors
3. 8-pin PROCOOL II power connector
4. Ten-Layer PCB
VRM COOLING
Substantial heatsinks cover the power solution, bolstered by a quiet thermal system that intakes from the core and outputs heat upwards through a ventilated top, so the VRM stays cool even in air-restricted systems.
THE ROG STRIX ECOSYSTEM AWAITS
Linear vents and subtle grid-like textures give the Strix Z790-I a stealthy form that blends in the shadows of most SFF builds. But if a little lighting hits the side of its M.2 shroud, its true colours show in the form of a prismatic sheen glinting off of the highly-reflective aluminium that outlines the embossed ROG logo.
The ROG Strix Z790-I bears the same LGA 1700 socket as the Z690 models, so it is backward compatible with all coolers that supported the previous generation, including all AIO offerings from ASUS and ROG. Enjoy complementary aesthetics, control, and compatibility across AIO coolers, cases, peripherals, and much more. ROG offers more choices than any other brand.
ROG FPS-II CARD
The ROG FPS-II card groups I/O onto a vertically-mounted card, saving valuable on-board space and tidying cable management. Connections can be made before the card is installed, greatly simplifying installation in cramped quarters. On board are two SATA ports, front panel headers, two USB 2.0 headers (allowing for up to three USB 2.0 connections), a CPU_OV jumper for extreme overclocking, and an Alteration mode switch.
PCIE 5.0 PERFORMANCE
The ROG Strix Z790-I offers end-to-end PCIe 5.0 support with a unique twist. Both the x16 expansion slot and one of the onboard M.2 slots are Gen 5-ready, but that M.2 slot has additional PCIe 4.0 routing to the chipset. If the M.2 slot is in Gen 5 mode, it can scale up to 16 GB/s read and write speeds.
If the M.2 slot uses PCIe 4.0, all of the Gen 5 bandwidth is allocated to the expansion slot for unfettered graphics card performance.
WIFI 6E
Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of newly available spectrum in the 6 GHz band to provide up to seven 160 MHz channels for ultrafast throughput and better performance in dense wireless environments.
INTEL® 2.5 GB ETHERNET
Low-latency gaming, speedy file transfers, and high-resolution video streaming are among the many perks of onboard Intel® 2.5 Gbps Ethernet.
CONTROL AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
The all-new ROG Strix Hive brings critical controls and I/O within arm’s reach, moving them from the cramped quarters of an SFF chassis to a compact peripheral that sits on the desktop. DIY-friendly buttons and diagnostic LEDs are brought front and center along with a large volume dial. On the sides, a varied group of I/O ports handle audio input and output and provide convenient connectivity for grab-and-go peripherals.
ARMED WITH ALL THE ESSENTIALS
The ATX experience thoughtfully scaled into mini-ITX: grace your desktop with the ROG Strix Hive for superb audio and control, build easier with the ROG FPS-II card, and make faster connections with the latest Thunderbolt and WiFi support.
