ASUS Z790 MAX Gaming WIFI7 Intel Z790 (LGA 1700) ATX Motherboard with PCIe 5.0, Three M.2 Slots, 14+1 DrMOS, DDR5

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.

14(50A)+1(60A)+1 Power Stages

14(50A)+1(60A)+1 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into packages rated for up to 60 amperes each, delivering power, efficiency, stability and performance to latest Intel processors.

AEMP II for Ultimate DDR5 Performance

ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile II (AEMP II) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules. AEMP II is based on a CPU and memory module’s ability to train the memory chips on your kit, and it presents an optimized clock speed that can effortlessly unleash performance.

Built through a flexible training method, AEMP II makes it easy to not only tune the memory above baseline settings but also maintain the stability of system operation, whether getting the most out of an entry-level module or priming a high-speed kit for ultimate performance.

Three M.2 Slots (up to 64 Gbps)

Z790 MAX GAMING WIFI7 offers a total of three M.2 slots that support data-transfer speeds of up to 64 Gbps via PCIe 4.0, enabling quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.

*Actual transmission speeds will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed.

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. PCIe 5.0 also brings other benefits, such as electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and compatibility with previous versions of PCI Express.

USB 20Gbps Type-C

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

Thunderbolt 4 (USB4 compliant)

Z790 MAX GAMING WIFI7 motherboard features USB4 support via a Thunderbolt (USB4) header. With an ASUS add-on card*, ASUS Z790 motherboards can enable bi-directional speeds of up to 40 Gbps on a single cable, while providing power to fast-charge device. Additionally, this card has a daisy-chain function for multi-screen connection and supports up to dual displays with 4K resolution.

*ASUS add-on card is sold separately.

WiFi 7

Next-gen WiFi 7 include the 6 GHz band and 4096 QAM, delivering ultra-fast WiFi speeds. The revolutionary Multi-Link Operation (MLO)2 provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming, and industrial IoT.

Dual transceivers support the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands to enable faster throughput to improve signal quality and cover greater distances.

* MLO (Multi-link Operation) full functions support will be ready in Windows 11 2024 Platform (Windows 11 24H2) or later
