Emaplaat ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO Intel Z790 LGA 1700 ATX

Buffed and ready with more power, robust cooling, and flexible I/O to scale up your rig at will. The ROG Maximus Z790 Hero puts it all at your disposal together with an arsenal of features and utilities to truly express the PC builder, overclocker, and gaming hero in you.<br><br><b>PERFORMANCE</b><br>Utilize the Hero’s immense power and control to take your 13th Gen CPU and DDR5 memory kit to the next level.<br><br><b>TEAMED POWER ARCHITECTURE</b><br>Today's CPU architectures place incredible demands on motherboard power design by transitioning from deep power-saving modes, going from lower-power mode to full load in an instant. The latest ROG VRM architecture rises to the challenge by utilizing teamed power stages to rapidly swing current, while maintaining exemplary thermal performance.<br><br><b>A BRIEF HISTORY</b><br>ASUS became the first manufacturer to implement phase-doublers with the A8N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard, back in 2005. The board's VRM was lauded for elegantly overcoming the power handling capabilities of components that were available at the time while also reducing voltage ripple. Those benefits led to phase-doublers becoming universally accepted in the industry, and they are still used for similar purposes today.<br><br><b>A SHIFT IN CPU DEMANDS</b><br>Modern CPUs pack more cores than their predecessors, and the latest instruction sets allow them to crunch computationally dense workloads at an incredible pace. In addition, they consume less power at idle and can transition between load states much more quickly. These improvements necessitate a re-evaluation of power-design priorities because phase-doublers add a propagation delay that hampers transient response.<br><br><b>BUCKING THE TREND</b><br>Fortunately, the latest integrated power components can handle higher currents than the devices of yesteryear, making it possible to implement a simple circuit topology that isn't hamstrung by the processing lag of phase-doublers. That's why the ROG Maximus Z790 Hero utilizes teamed power stages to deliver higher burst current per phase, while maintaining the thermal performance of phase-doubled designs.<br><br><b>THERMAL PERFORMANCE</b><br>Each VRM component serves a specific purpose. PWM controllers and phase-doublers control the circuit, and the power stages do the heavy lifting from an electrical and thermal standpoint. The power stages feature low RDSON to reduce switching and conduction losses, helping to improve overall thermal headroom.<br><br><b>HIGH-QUALITY COMPONENTS</b><br><br><b>MEMORY</b><br>Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ROG motherboards. With the ROG Maximus Z790 Hero, you can extract all of the potential out of your DDR5 modules, regardless of if they're from an extreme-speed kit or an entry-level set that would otherwise be locked.<br><br><b>DDR5 DOMINATION</b><br>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 7 GT/s mark on the Maximus Z790 Hero, 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.<br><br><b>AEMP II</b><br>ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive hardware and firmware solution to overclock generic memory modules. AEMP’s second version allows for automatic tuning of kits during system startup and leverages the PCB trace optimizations of the Maximus Z790 Hero to push frequencies higher than ever before. AEMP II can even overclock mixed kits in a quad-DIMM arrangement, and the vast library of support now extends to nearly every DDR5 module that does not otherwise have XMP support.<br><br><b>COOLING</b><br>Stacked with titanic heatsink arrays and surging with controls for liquid- and air-cooled setups, the Hero is fully armed to combat the fiery heat of the latest processors and high-speed drives.<br><br><b>VRM and aluminum I/O heatsink</b><br>A VRM heatsink on the MOSFETs and chokes is connected to the aluminum I/O cover via an embedded heatpipe to increase mass and surface area for dissipation.<br><br><b>M.2 heatsink and backplates</b><br>Large aluminum heatsinks provide extensive surface area to cool mounted M.2 drives, and each of the three onboard slots has a dedicated backplate for additional heat dissipation.<br><br><b>High-conductivity thermal pads</b><br>Each thermal pad improves overall heat transfer from the system by bridging the heat generated by the power stages to the heatsink. For future maintenance, a replacement thermal pad can also be found in the package.<br><br><b>Solid steel backplate</b><br>A plate of electro-galvanized steel strengthens the spine of the ROG Maximus Z790 Hero to prevent bending.<br><br><b>Chipset heatsink</b><br>A dedicated heatsink draws heat away from the chipset to maintain optimum operating temperature.<br><br><b>THERMAL MANAGEMENT</b><br>An extensive array of headers line the ROG Maximus Z790 Hero for precise cooling control and monitoring.<br><br><b>Multiple temperature sources</b><br>Each header can be set to monitor and react to three user-configurable thermal sensors for workload-based cooling, and all settings can be easily managed by Fan Xpert 4 or UEFI.<br><br><b>4-pin fan headers</b><br>In addition to the pair of CPU fan headers, the Maximus Z790 Hero features four chassis headers, and each supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.<br><br><b>AIO pump header</b><br>An additional PWM/DC fan header offers dedicated control of self-contained water-cooling setups.<br><br><b>ROG WATER-COOLING ZONE</b><br>Dual water-temperature headers and a flow-rate header feed information straight into Armoury Crate, allowing you to track coolant temperatures and the flow rate of the entire loop.<br><br><b>Water pump+</b><br>A dedicated header can supply over 3 amps to a high-performance PWM or DC water pumps.<br><br><b>Water in/out</b><br>A dedicated header enables monitoring of temperatures at the input/output points of any component.<br><br><b>Water flow</b><br>A dedicated header enables constant monitoring of flow rate throughout the entire loop.<br><br><b>COOLER COMPATIBILITY</b><br>The ROG Maximus Z790 Hero bears the same LGA 1700 socket as the Z690 models, so it is backward compatible with all coolers that supported the previous generation, including all AIO offerings from ASUS and ROG.<br><br><b>CONNECTIVITY</b><br>Next-gen connectivity for graphics, storage, peripherals, and networking, plus high-definition audio for all types of setups — it all combines to create a Hero that’s connected with now and the future.<br><br><b>PCIE 5.0</b><br>Fully embracing the new standard, the ROG Maximus Z790 Hero offers abundant Gen 5 support to give unfettered bandwidth to the fastest SSDs and graphics cards available.<br><br><b>TWO THUNDERBOLT 4 TYPE-C® PORTS</b><br>Each port delivers up to 40 Gbps of bidirectional bandwidth for the latest super-speed devices and drives.
