PRIME Z790-P WIFI DDR5

FLEXIBILITY

Comprehensive controls form the foundation of the ASUS PRIME series. The PRIME Z790-P WIFI motherboard packs flexible tools to tune every aspect of your system, enabling performance tweaks to perfectly match the way you work to maximize productivity.

• All-Around Energy Efficiency
  The Power Saving function contains several settings can easily optimize power consumption and maximize energy savings. You can enable a CPU power limit, darken Aura lighting, and set the fan profile to a power saving mode. You can also toggle the Power Saver plan that is built into Microsoft Windows.
• Flexible Air- and Liquid-Cooling Controls
  ASUS Fan Xpert 4 software provides comprehensive control over fans, water pumps and all-in-one (AIO) coolers. Whether cooling with air or water, an Auto-Tuning mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There’s also an Extreme Quiet mode that reduces all fan speeds to below the default minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks. Fans, water pumps and AIO coolers can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS.
• Precise Digital Power Control
  The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings. It also allows you to fine-tune your CPU for ultimate stability and performance.
• ProCool Connectors
  Proprietary connectors augment the motherboard’s link to the PSU with 4 + 8 pin connectors that pass 12 volts of power directly to the processors. Each jack features solid pins that can handle more current than hollow-pin connectors.
• 14(50A)+1(60A)+1 Power Stages
  14(50A)+1(60A)+1 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into packages rated for up to 60 amperes each, delivering power, efficiency, stability and performance to latest Intel processors.
• AEMP II for Ultimate DDR5 Performance
  ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile II (AEMP 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.
• ASUS OptiMem II
  Revisions to the motherboard’s trace routing provide the latest processors with unrestricted access to memory bandwidth. ASUS OptiMem II technology carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk.
• 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 quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.

PERSONALIZATION

The PRIME Z790-P WIFI motherboard adds the nuanced details that improve every experience, from exclusive codecs that provide pristine audio quality to intuitive RGB lighting controls that let you customize your system to create a uniquely personal look.

• M.2 Heatsink
  The flexible M.2 heatsink with removable captive screws can take care of the M.2_1 or M.2_3 slot, warding off throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during sustained transfers.
  Removable captive screws reduce risk of drops or loss during heatsink removal.
• VRM Heatsink and Thermal Pad
  The extensive surface area of the massive heatsinks cover the VRMs and chokes to improve heat dissipation. Together with specially engineered thermal pads, they improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.
• Cooler by Design
  PRIME Z790-P WIFI features comprehensive cooling controls that are configurable via Fan Xpert 4 software or via the UEFI BIOS.
• Multiple Temperature Sources
  Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 4 allows you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.
• AIO Pump Header
  A dedicated PWM/DC header for self-contained water-cooling setups.
• Smart Protection
  A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from overheating and overcurrent.
• 4-Pin PWM/DC Fan
  Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.
• Audio Shielding
  Audio shielding ensures precision analog/digital separation and greatly reduced multi-lateral interference.
• Dedicated Audio PCB Layers
  Separate layers for left and right tracks ensures both channels deliver consistent, equal quality.
• Premium Audio Capacitors
  Provides warm, natural, and immersive sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity.

Connectivity

The PRIME Z790-P WIFI motherboard is built to handle the high core counts and bandwidth demands of 13^th Gen Intel^® Core™ Processors. ASUS Z790 motherboard provides all the fundamentals to boost daily productivity, so your system will be ready for action with stable power, intuitive cooling and flexible data transfer options.

• 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-heavy tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other benefits, such as electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and compatibility with previous versions of PCI Express.
• USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C®
  A batch of USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including the rear USB Type-C connectors with ultrafast USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 for transmission speeds of up to 20 Gbps.
• Thunderbolt™ 4 (USB4® compliant)
  PRIME Z790-P WIFI motherboard features USB4® support via a Thunderbolt™ (USB4®) header. With an ASUS add-on card*, PRIME motherboards can enable bi-directional speeds of up to 40 Gbps on a single cable, while providing power to fast-charge device. Additionally, this card has a daisy-chain function for multi-screen connection and supports up to dual displays with 4K resolution.
• Intel® WiFi 6
  The Intel® WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 2.4 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it’s optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6.
• Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet
  Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet reduces CPU overhead and offers exceptionally high TCP and UDP throughput for faster, smoother data transfers.
• LANGuard
  ASUS LANGuard is a hardware-level network protection feature that integrates advanced signal-coupling technology and premium anti-EMI surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput and ensure a more reliable connection.
