WiFi 6E

Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band, providing up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds along with improved capacity and better performance in dense wireless environments.

10 Gb & 2.5 Gb Ethernet

Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for 2.5 Gb internet streaming or uploading and 10 Gb for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data organization and security.

ProArt Z790-Creator WiFi features WiFi 6E, along with 10 Gb and 2.5 Gb Ethernet.

*WiFi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi.

PCIe 5.0 expansion slots

Both of the x16 expansion slots have the PCIe 5.0 treatment to offer incredible speeds up to 64 GB/s for compatible devices. To bear the brunt of massive graphics cards, they are also protected with SafeSlot retention brackets, and the top slot can be released easily thanks to the Q-Release button.

ProArt Z790-Creator WiFi is PCIe 5.0 ready

Ultrafast M.2 Storage

Four PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots support up to 22110 and provide NVMe® SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data transfer speeds.

ProArt Z790-Creator WiFi features four PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots.

Quick charging your USB devices

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C^® front-panel
connector with Quick Charge 4+

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 boosts data transfers with speeds of up to 20 Gbps. This header also features Quick Charge 4+ technology that can quickly charge your pen display, tablet or mobile phone up to 60 watts by using a PCIe power supply cable plugged into the nearby 6-pin connector.

The core of your powerful workstation

ROG Strix Z690-E Gaming WiFi power design

Robust power design

16(70A)+1(70A)+2 Power Stages

Rated for up to 70 amps and combining high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into a single package, these stages deliver power and efficiency tailored for the latest 14^th, 13^th & 12^th Gen Intel Core processors.
Digi+ power control

The ASUS Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry and ensures ultra-smooth power delivery to the CPU.
ProCool II power connector

Built to tight specifications to ensure flush contact with PSU power lines. The resulting lower impedance helps to prevent hotspots and connector failure.
Chokes & capacitors

Superior alloy chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, providing a higher level of performance than the industry standard.

Performance boost

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.

Memory

Unleash DDR5 with AEMP II

ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile 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.

AEMP technology can boost DDR5 performance up to 41.6% from 4800MHz to 6800 MHz

ProArt Z790-Creator WiFi features AEMP II to unleash DDR5 performance

⦁ Results may vary according to the capabilities of your CPU and memory modules.
⦁ The comparison chart is based on a test with an Intel i9-13900K processor and 2x16 GB SK Hynix DDR5-4800 non-ECC UDIMMs, model HMCG78MEBUA081N
⦁ Please ensure all memory modules are from a single validated kit. Do not combine DIMMs from multiple kits—even if they are the same make and model. Mixing and matching DIMMs can result in failure to boot, and compatibility cannot be guaranteed.
⦁ Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimal compatibility, we recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or date code (D/C) from the same vendor. Check with your retailer to get the correct memory modules.

Self-adaptive fan tuning

AI Cooling II balances 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 it monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.

Everything you need to optimize workflow

Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation

As working from home becomes the new normal, clear online communication is more critical than ever. Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation is an audio utility that leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone* and incoming audio. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks and other ambient noises are smartly pared back so your calls and video conferences with partners and clients are crystal clear.

*An audio splitter (3.5 mm audio jack Y-cable) is necessary when using a 3.5 mm headset.

Hear the
difference

Audio script: (Background music and crockery) Try switching the AI Noise canceling function on and off to hear the difference for yourself! Two-way AI Noise Cancelation filters out unwanted background noise from both your microphone and also incoming audio ensuring you can hear and be heard with crystal clarity for efficient communication.

Customize your personal settings

ProArt Creator Hub is your personal portal to monitor your PC status, personalize settings or optimize your workflow. It features an intuitive overview dashboard, quickly switching fan profiles and makes short work of switching between different performance modes.

Four performance presets can quickly adjust the balance of noise and cooling for all fans connected to the motherboard.

To streamline your workflow, you can select up to eight apps to be launched at the same time from the desktop.

CreationFirst is a network-optimization application that offers five network modes to optimize bandwidth efficiency for different tasks.
