Asus PRIME Z790-A Wi-Fi ATX Gaming Motherboard

Asus PRIME Z790-A Wi-Fi ATX Gaming Motherboard

Precise Digital Power Control

The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings.

It also allows you to fine-tune your CPU for ultimate stability and performance.

 

 

VRM Heatsinks and Thermal Pads

The extensive surface area of the massive heatsinks cover the VRMs and chokes to improve heat dissipation.

Together with specially engineered thermal pads, they improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.

 

 

16 + 1 Teamed Power Stages

16 + 1 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into packages rated for 60 amperes each, delivering power, efficiency, stability and performance to latest Intel processors.

ProCool Connectors

Proprietary connectors augment the motherboard's link to the PSU with 8+8 pin connectors that pass 12 volts of power directly to the processors

 

 

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C

A batch of USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including a rear Type-C connector with ultrafast USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 for transmission speeds of up to 20 Gbps.

PCIe 5.0 Slot

PCIe 5.0 offers twice the data transfer speed of PCIe 4.0, making it robust enough to handle new data-heavy tasks. 

 

 

Wi-Fi 6E

Onboard Wi-Fi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band.

It provides up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds and improved capacity as well as better performance in dense wireless environments.
