Connectivity

AI NETWORKING II

AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of WiFi 7*.

*Features may vary by model.

AI OVERCLOCKING

Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before.

AI COOLING II

Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click.

ASUS AI ADVISOR

Using AI technology to understand natural-language questions or scenario descriptions, ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.

* Availability of ASUS AI Advisor may vary by region.

NPU BOOST

The integrated NPU in Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows - and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%.

* The overclocking performance may vary depending on the CPU series and motherboard used.
** Testing was conducted with an Intel Arrow Lake QS Q2HA Ultra 9 285K processor, ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme motherboard, GeForce RTX™ 4090 24GB graphics card, and XPG Lancer DDR5 memory modules (model AX5U6000C4016G).

DIFFERENTIAL SENSING

Conventional motherboards use single-ended sensing tapped from a location that isn't ideal, leading to a large disparity between the actual voltage fed to the CPU and the value reported to software. The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features a differential-sensing circuit and delicate IC that simplify overclocking and tuning by allowing you to track voltages more accurately.

DDR5 DOMINATION

Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits can be driven far beyond the 8 GT/s mark on the ROG Maximus Z890 Hero*.

*Memory overclocking may vary between CPU series. Please refer to the spec table for detailed information.

NitroPath DRAM Technology

- Frequency up to 400 MT/s higher
- Slot retention force enhanced by 57%

DIMM FIT

DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyzes individual memory modules to optimize performance and pinpoint potential issues.

DIMM FLEX

DIMM Flex employs specialized circuitry that can boost performance or address potential stability issues, depending on temperature readings.

* Results may vary according to the capabilities of your CPU, graphic card, motherboard, and memory modules.
** The comparison chart is based on a test with an Intel Core i9-14900K processor, ROG Strix Z790-E Gaming WiFi II motherboard, ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4090 OC Edition 24GB graphics card, and G.SKILL DDR5 memory modules (model F5-7200J3646F24GX2-TZ5RK).

AEMP III

ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory.

ROG Ultimate Power Solution

22(110A)+1(90A)+2(90A)+2(80A) Power Stages

THERMAL MANAGEMENT

An extensive array of headers line the ROG Maximus Z890 Hero for precise cooling control and monitoring.

Multiple temperature sources
Each header can be set to monitor and react to user-configurable thermal sensors for workload-based cooling, and all settings can be easily managed by Fan Xpert 4 or UEFI.

4-pin fan headers
In addition to the pair of CPU fan headers, the ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features four chassis headers, and each supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.

AIO pump header
An additional PWM/DC fan header offers dedicated control of self-contained water-cooling setups.

COOLER COMPATIBILITY

ASUS AIO coolers offer robust performance, high overclocking potential, bold aesthetics and customizable functionality for new Z890 motherboards, empowering you to build your dream gaming rig.

M.2 SLOTS WITH ROG M.2 POWERBOOST

The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features three PCIe® 5.0 M.2 slots and three PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots onboard, all of which support ROG M.2 PowerBoost to help ensure that every onboard M.2 device can operate simultaneously at optimal performance.
