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.
DDR5 Domination
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 8 GT/s mark on the Strix Z790-E II and who knows how far future DIMMs can go? Seasoned veterans can test their mettle by tinkering with the extensive array of tuning options in the UEFI.
WiFi 7
With Multi-Link Operation (MLO) WiFi 7 can outperform WiFi 6E to deliver faster speeds higher reliability and increased data transfer efficiency.
Intel 2.5G Ethernet
Low-latency gaming speedy file transfers and high-resolution video streaming are among the many perks of onboard Intel® 2.5 Gbps Ethernet.
USB 20Gbps
The Strix Z790-E II comes loaded with two USB 20Gbps Type-C® connectors for speedy data transfers up to 20Gbps. One is a port on the rear I/O; the other can be attached to the chassis front panel and it also features Power Delivery (PD) 3.0 technology to quickly charge devices up to 30W.
Outshine The Competition
ROG Strix motherboards feature ASUS Aura technology enabling full lighting control and a variety of presets for both onboard RGB LEDs and third-party accessories. Effects can be easily synced across compatible ROG graphics cards monitors keyboards and mice to give your setup a unified look.
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.
Game First
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 streamingcloud gaming sessions.
