Setup is now faster and smarter than ever. ASUS AI Overclocking analyzes the CPU and cooling system to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be applied automatically or used as a starting point for further experimentation.
The ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme is equipped with four built-in M.2 slots, each supporting ROG M.2 PowerBoost to enable all built-in M.2 devices to run at optimal performance.
Both x16 expansion slots provide incredible speeds of up to 64 GB/s for compatible devices. To withstand the load of massive graphics cards, they are also reinforced with SafeSlot retention brackets, and both slots can be easily released with the PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim.
AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies for continuous network performance optimization, providing reliable and seamless connectivity, and unleashing the full speed of WiFi 7.
Thanks to improved signal routing, enthusiast-grade memory kits on the ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme have already reached speeds beyond 8 GT/s. Seasoned veterans can test their skills with the extensive set of tuning options in the UEFI.
VRM heatsinks on the MOSFETs and chokes are connected by an embedded heatpipe to increase mass and surface area for heat dissipation.
