Overview

Slash the 6GHz barrier in style with the Strix Z790-E. Translucent shrouds outline its RGB ignition panel, alluding to its ability to jump into lightspeed under the guidance of AI Overclocking and a hyper-reactive VRM. DDR5 enhancements and an assortment of PCIe 5.0 options ramp up velocity even further, and setup is a breeze thanks to its unique Q-Design feature set.

ALL-ROUND PERFORMANCE

Every aspect of the Strix Z790-E is finely tuned so the processor, memory, and connected devices can run in lockstep in order to achieve breakneck speeds.

AI OVERCLOCKING

Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.

PCIE 5.0

Fully embracing the new standard, the Strix Z790-E offers end-to-end PCIe 5.0 support. The topmost x16 expansion slot is Gen 5-ready, and is protected with a SafeSlot retention bracket to bear the weight of the latest graphics cards. One of the onboard M.2 slots is geared for blistering 16 GB/s read and write speeds thanks to its PCIe 5.0 interface, while all the rest can deliver still-impressive 8 GB/s transfers. Every M.2 slot is covered with substantial heatsinks to dispatch the heat of next-gen drives.?

MEMORY

DDR5 DOMINATION

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 Strix Z790-E, 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.?

AEMP II

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 Strix Z790-E 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.

LEADING CONNECTIVITY

Lightning-fast networking keeps the Strix Z790-E in sync with the outside world for uninterrupted gaming and creation. In addition to breakneck data transfers, connected devices can now top-up quickly thanks to 30W charging support. And SupremeFX audio makes sound clear and punchy to shape truly immersive experiences.

NETWORKING

WIFI 6E

Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of newly available spectrum in the 6 GHz band to provide up to seven 160 MHz channels for ultrafast throughput and better performance in dense wireless environments.

* WiFi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi. Learn more about ASUS WiFi 6E

Intel 2.5G Ethernet

Low-latency gaming, speedy file transfers, and high-resolution video streaming are among the many perks of onboard Intel® 2.5 Gbps Ethernet.

USB 3.2 GEN 2X2

The Strix Z790-E comes loaded with two USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C® connectors for speedy data transfers up to 20 Gbps. One is a port on the rear I/O; the other can be attached to the chassis front panel and it also features Power Delivery (PD) 3.0 technology to quickly charge devices up to 30W.

SUPREMEFX

ROG SupremeFX is a unique blend of hardware and software technologies that provide superior audio. The Strix Z790-E implementation features the ALC4080 codec for high-resolution playback up to 32-bit/384 kHz across all channels. Front-panel output is streamed through the integrated Savitech amplifier that can drive high-fidelity acoustics to a wide variety of speakers and headsets.

PLAY IN STYLE

Black PCB and heatsinks compliment most hardware, and customizable RGB lighting furthers the flexibility. Pair the Strix Z790-E with other products from the diverse ROG ecosystem to create a fully customized gaming setup that reflects your personal style.

UNDENIABLY ROG STRIX

Diagonal slats, brushed aluminum, and bold RGB have become hallmarks of the ROG aesthetic, and the Strix Z790-E bears all of them with pride. But for this generation, translucent diffusers line the I/O shroud and the Q-Release array, softly contrasting the metallic heatsinks nearby.

OUTSHINE THE COMPETITION

ROG Strix motherboards feature ASUS Aura technology, enabling full lighting control and a variety of presets for both onboard RGB LEDs and third-party accessories. Effects can be easily synced across compatible ROG graphics cards, monitors, keyboards, and mice to give your setup a unified look.

COOLER COMPATIBILITY

The ROG Strix Z790-E 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.

Amazing Motherboard. As many mid-high tier Asus brand is a but overpriced. But in general is worth it.

Bought this instead of a Z790 HERO for my first-ever build and I was not disappointed! As a board, it's so easy to work with and durable enough to remove the fear of breaking it! The postcode display makes life so much easier and it has all the connections you could need - between headers and fans it has all you need (just not a pump header!). Would 100% recommend you save yourself the money and go for this if you're on the fence - CCL Were also the cheapest option and delivered ahead of schedule!

Exceptional performance. Build quality is absolutely brilliant, heatsinks cover nearly all components. Connectors in great placing. The only issue I had was finding a good place for the Lian Li o11 dynamic evo graphics card support bracket which struggled to fit the primary suggested location due to one of the heatsink. Not a major issue as I could reposition the bracket easily. Wonderful product, from an exceptional supplier.

CCL Computers, I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and anger regarding my recent purchase of an Asus ROG Strix Z790 E Motherboard from your company. I ordered a brand new motherboard but instead received an open box product. This is completely unacceptable and goes against the basic principles of customer satisfaction. As a customer, I have the right to receive a product that is brand new and sealed, especially when I am paying full price for it. However, the open box motherboard that I received was clearly not new and had been tampered with. The accessories packs were in a horrendous condition, as if they had been kicked around the warehouse floor. This is completely unacceptable and I am appalled that your company would send out such a product to a customer. Despite my numerous complaints, I have received nothing but empty promises from your customer service agent. They have been giving me tickets and saying that I will be contacted soon, but none of these tickets have been answered. This lack of communication and disregard for customer satisfaction is completely unacceptable. I have given up on trying to get any resolution from your company and will never buy from CCL Computers again. I strongly advise any potential customers to give your company a wide berth. I just wish I could rate your company zero stars for your incompetence and lack of customer service. In conclusion, I am extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with my experience with your company. I urge you to take this complaint seriously and take action to ensure that this kind of incident does not happen again in the future.
