Take your gaming and content-creation experiences to the next level with the ASUS ROG Z690-E GAMING WIFI LGA 1700 ATX Motherboard as a powerful foundation for your desktop computer build. Supporting 12th generation Intel LGA 1700 socket processors and the Z690 chipset, which takes advantage of the large PCIe 5.0 data bandwidth, this ATX motherboard is designed to take on intensive workloads such as 8K video editing, high-end games, and more. Up to 128GB of dual-channel DDR5 RAM, reaching 6400 MHz when overclocked, can be installed across four memory slots to improve the system s multitasking capabilities. At the same time, its PCIe 5.0, 4.0, and 3.0 x16 slots can accommodate powerful graphics cards and devices such as the included ASUS Hyper M.2 card while the PCIe 3.0 x1 slot supports other compatible expansions. In addition to the on-board PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 M.2 solid-state drive slots, you can install up to two more M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe drives by using the Hyper M.2 card. This motherboard also has six SATA III drive headers with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configurations.
The rear panel features a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port that can transfer up to 20 Gb/s with compatible devices, alongside two 10 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, and four USB 2.0 ports. A second USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port may be added through a compatible front panel with the available header. Use the built-in 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6E capabilities to transfer up to 2.4 Gb/s with compatible tri-band wireless networks and enjoy incredibly fast online games, live stream broadcasts, and more. Alternatively, you can use the 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port to connect to compatible wired networks and high-speed devices. Other features include SupremeFX ALC4080 audio with gold-plated connectors and Savitech SV3H712 AMP for crystal clear, detailed 7.1-channel surround sound. You can customize your computing experience using the addressable RGB lighting headers to customize various effects to match your mood, style, and game. Windows 10 or 11 64-bit is required to take advantage of all the ROG Z690-E GAMING WIFI s features.
PCIe 5.0 Memory Bandwidth
The ROG Z690-E GAMING WIFI motherboard pairs 12th generation Intel processors with PCIe 5.0 bandwidth, transferring up to a 128 GB/s in an x16 configuration using the Z690 chipset.
Performance
This motherboard features 18+1 power stages rated for 90A, ProCool II power connectors, alloy chokes, and durable capacitors.
Thermal Design
Double-sided M.2 heatsinks help to prevent speed throttling during sustained data transfers. The hybrid fan headers allow you to install compatible cooling fans and control them through the Fan Xpert 4 utility.
Storage and Memory
Note:
Installing the ROG Hyper M.2 card on PCIEX16(G5) or PCIEX16(G3) disables the Hyper M.2_2 slot. PCIEX16(G5) only supports PCIe 4.0 x4 and PCIEX16(G3) supports PCIe 3.0 x4. PCIEX16(G4) enables both M.2 slots in PCIe 4.0 x4 mode. SATA6G_E1-2 ports don t support RAID or boot drive configurations.
Rear Panel USB Connectivity
Integrated Graphics Support
Take advantage of CPUs with integrated graphics by connecting an 8K monitor to the motherboard s DisplayPort 1.4 connector and a 4K display to the HDMI 2.1 port.
Immersive Sound
This motherboard includes SupremeFX ALC4080 7.1-channel high-definition audio with a Savitech SV3H712 AMP, providing crystal clear 32-bit, 384 kHz playback with a 120 dB SNR for stereo playback output and a 113 dB SNR recording input. Connect your speakers using the gold-plated audio jacks or S/PDIF optical port.
RGB Lighting
Connect, customize, and control equipment such as LED light strips with the onboard RGB and addressable RGB gen 2 headers to create dazzling effects that can be synchronized with ASUS Aura Sync compatible peripherals such as keyboards, mice, monitors, and more.
Clear Communications
Integrated two-way AI noise cancellation helps to ensure clear online voice and video chats.
