Product Description

Description

Take your gaming and content-creation experiences to the next level with the ASUS ROG Z690-E GAMING WIFI LGA 1700 ATX Motherboard as a powerful foundation for your desktop computer build. Supporting 12th generation Intel LGA 1700 socket processors and the Z690 chipset, which takes advantage of the large PCIe 5.0 data bandwidth, this ATX motherboard is designed to take on intensive workloads such as 8K video editing, high-end games, and more. Up to 128GB of dual-channel DDR5 RAM, reaching 6400 MHz when overclocked, can be installed across four memory slots to improve the system’s multitasking capabilities. At the same time, its PCIe 5.0, 4.0, and 3.0 x16 slots can accommodate powerful graphics cards and devices such as the included ASUS Hyper M.2 card while the PCIe 3.0 x1 slot supports other compatible expansions. In addition to the on-board PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 M.2 solid-state drive slots, you can install up to two more M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe drives by using the Hyper M.2 card. This motherboard also has six SATA III drive headers with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configurations.

The rear panel features a USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C port that can transfer up to 20 Gb/s with compatible devices, alongside two 10 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, and four USB 2.0 ports. A second USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C port may be added through a compatible front panel with the available header. Use the built-in 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6E capabilities to transfer up to 2.4 Gb/s with compatible tri-band wireless networks and enjoy incredibly fast online games, live stream broadcasts, and more. Alternatively, you can use the 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port to connect to compatible wired networks and high-speed devices. Other features include SupremeFX ALC4080 audio with gold-plated connectors and Savitech SV3H712 AMP for crystal clear, detailed 7.1-channel surround sound. You can customize your computing experience using the addressable RGB lighting headers to customize various effects to match your mood, style, and game. Windows 10 or 11 64-bit is required to take advantage of all the ROG Z690-E GAMING WIFI’s features.

PCIe 5.0 Memory Bandwidth

The ROG Z690-E GAMING WIFI motherboard pairs 12th generation Intel processors with PCIe 5.0 bandwidth, transferring up to a 128 GB/s in an x16 configuration using the Z690 chipset.

Performance

This motherboard features 18+1 power stages rated for 90A, ProCool II power connectors, alloy chokes, and durable capacitors.

Thermal Design

Double-sided M.2 heatsinks help to prevent speed throttling during sustained data transfers. The hybrid fan headers allow you to install compatible cooling fans and control them through the Fan Xpert 4 utility.

Storage and Memory

  • On-board PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots are available, supporting up to type 22110 NVMe PCIe and SATA SSDs
  • The included ROG Hyper M.2 card allows you to install up to two PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 22110 NVMe SSDs, depending on the PCIe slot
  • Six SATA III ports are available for hard drives and 2.5″ SSDs
  • Supports RAID 0, 1, and 5 (NVMe)
  • Supports RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 (SATA)
  • Up to 128GB of dual-channel DDR5-6400 (OC) memory can be installed across four slots
  • Supports Intel Extreme Memory Profile (XMP)
  • OptiMem II

Note:

Installing the ROG Hyper M.2 card on PCIEX16(G5) or PCIEX16(G3) disables the Hyper M.2_2 slot. PCIEX16(G5) only supports PCIe 4.0 x4 and PCIEX16(G3) supports PCIe 3.0 x4. PCIEX16(G4) enables both M.2 slots in PCIe 4.0 x4 mode. SATA6G_E1-2 ports don’t support RAID or boot drive configurations.

Rear Panel USB Connectivity

  • 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C (20 Gb/s)
  • 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gb/s)
  • 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gb/s)
  • 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gb/s)
  • 4 x USB 2.0 Type-A (480 Mb/s)
