AI ll cooling
AI Cooling II balances the temperature and acoustics of any building with a single click. A proprietary ASUS algorithm reduces unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test and then monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
 
UEFI BIOS
The renowned ASUS UEFI BIOS provides everything you need to configure, modify and tune your system. It offers cleverly simplified options for PC beginners, as well as comprehensive features for seasoned veterans.
 
Cooling
The PRIME Z790 motherboard is designed with multiple integrated heatsinks and a series of hybrid fan headers to ensure your PC stays cool and stable under intense workloads.
 
Robust power design
Stable power is essential to extracting every last bit of performance from Intel® processors. The PRIME Z790 is designed to meet the demands of these high core count CPUs.
 
AEMP II for maximum DDR5 performance
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile II (AEMP II) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules. AEMP II relies on the ability of a CPU and memory module to train the memory chips in your kit, and features an optimized clock speed that can unleash performance effortlessly.
 
Built through a flexible training method, AEMP II makes it easy to not only adjust memory above the reference setting, but also maintain the stability of system operation, whether taking full advantage of an entry-level module or preparing a high speed kit for the ultimate. performance.

ASUS OptiMem II
Revisions to motherboard trace routing give the latest Intel processors unrestricted access to memory bandwidth. ASUS OptiMem II technology carefully maps memory signal paths across different PCB layers to reduce pathways and adds buffer zones that significantly reduce crosstalk.
 
Storage
Three M.2 slots (up to 64 Gbps)

PRIME Z790-P WIFI offers a total of three M.2 slots that support data transfer speeds of up to 64 Gbps via PCIe ® 4.0, enabling faster boot and application loading times with OS drives or Applications.

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-intensive tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other benefits, such as electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-on cards, and backward compatibility with PCI Express.
 
USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C®
A batch of USB ports support high-end equipment loaded with peripherals, including front and rear USB Type-C connectors with ultra-fast USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 for transmission speeds of up to 20 Gbps.
 
Thunderbolt™ 4 (USB4® compatible)
The Prime Z790-P WIFI motherboard features USB4 ® support via Thunderbolt™ (USB4 ®) header. With an ASUS add-on card*, PRIME motherboards can enable bidirectional speeds of up to 40Gbps on a single cable, while providing power to the fast charging device. Additionally, this card has a daisy chain feature for multi-display connection and supports up to two displays with 4K resolution.
 
Intel® Wi-Fi 6E
The Intel® WiFi 6 module supports the 802.11ax standard and increases the theoretical maximum bandwidth to an incredible 2.4 Gbps. Perhaps most importantly for advanced users, it is optimized for more efficient operation on saturated networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6.
 
Intel® 2.5Gb Ethernet
Intel® 2.5 Gb Ethernet reduces CPU overhead and delivers exceptionally high TCP and UDP performance for faster, smoother data transfers.
