AI Overclocking
Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.
HybridChill
The ASUS HybridChill water block leverages a fusion of passive and liquid cooling to achieve highly efficient VRM operation. Its copper water channels resist corrosion and offer excellent heat dissipation while its threaded fittings use the G1/4” industry standard to ensure compatibility with a wide variety of custom cooling setups.
WiFi 7
Next-gen WiFi 7* chipset introduces all-new ultrawide 320 MHz channel bandwidth in the 6 GHz band and 4096 QAM delivering up to 2.4X ultra-fast WiFi speeds**. The revolutionary Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming streaming and industrial IoT.
5GB Ethernet
Low-latency gaming speedy file transfers and high-resolution video streaming are among the many perks of onboard Realtek 5 Gbps Ethernet.
AI Cooling II
Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. A proprietary ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test and then monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation
This utility leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce over 5 million types of background noise from incoming or outgoing audio helping ensure crystal-clear communication in games or calls.
AI Networking
GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate for an even better user experience. GameFirst optimizes networking performance by allocating bandwidth in real time based on intelligent algorithms designed for various application customizable usage scenarios and corresponding learning algorithms. The latest update includes dedicated support for NVIDIA® GeForce NOW to ensure the lowest latency possible during intense game streaming cloud gaming sessions. To provide a better user’s experience GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate.
LiveDash OLED
The ROG Maximus Z790 Formula includes LiveDash a built-in 2-inch OLED panel that shows useful information and features customizable graphics. During the power-on self-test (POST) phase the OLED shows key stats in simple language using traditional POST codes. In normal operation the panel can be programmed to show CPU frequency device temperatures fan speeds or water-cooling information. You can also personalize the default OLED GIF with a preferred image or animation.
