Key features
The BTF (Back-to-Front) approach places power and signal connectors such as motherboard power, GPU power, front-panel USB and fan headers out of direct view, enabling an exceptionally clean interior. This design simplifies cable routing, enhances airflow, and delivers a polished aesthetic for showcase or stealth builds.
Four DDR5 DIMM slots support up to 256GB of non-ECC memory and deliver advanced overclocking capability up to 9200+ MT/s (OC) thanks to NitroPath DRAM Technology. Combined with ASUS AI-Enhanced tuning and robust VRM engineering on the Intel® Z890 chipset, the board provides dependable headroom for enthusiasts and content creators.
A primary PCIe 5.0 x16 slot (configurable x16 or x8/x4/x4) plus a PCIe 4.0 x4 and a PCIe 4.0 x1 slot give you maximum flexibility for high-bandwidth GPUs, NVMe storage, and expansion cards. The platform supports modern configurations while remaining future-ready for evolving peripherals.
Six onboard M.2 slots and four SATA 6Gb/s ports accommodate multiple NVMe and SATA drives for enormous capacity and blazing performance. Built-in PCIe and SATA RAID support (0/1/5/10) enables fast, redundant or combined storage configurations to match gaming rigs, editing workstations, and data-heavy systems.
Dual wired LAN featuring Intel® 2.5Gb and Realtek 5Gb Ethernet complements integrated WiFi for versatile network topologies and low-latency online play. Premium ROG SupremeFX 7.1 audio with the ALC4082 codec preserves detail for immersive soundscapes. Modern USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C and Type-A ports deliver high-speed peripheral support and streamlined connectivity.
