About Asus Motherboard

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme represents the ultimate in enthusiast motherboard design for those who want the best possible option that excels at both air and liquid cooling for 12th Gen Intel® Core™ CPUs.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme platform is packed with the most features that you will find on a ROG Z690 motherboard, including heavy-duty 24+1 power stages.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is equipped with ASUS Enhanced Memory Profiles for top-notch DDR5 speeds, multiple PCIe 5.0 slots, and the exclusive AniMe Matrix™ LED Display.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is equipped with Intelligent software solutions that help ensure that your system performs at its best.

The latest ASUS AI-Powered enhancements span four pillars of performance, including overclocking, cooling, networking, and onboard audio, making advanced tweaks and optimization accessible to new recruits and savvy PC DIY veterans alike.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is the kind of motherboard that uses stock clock speeds merely as a reference point.

With its piles of teamed power stages working alongside high-grade capacitors and chokes, you get performance that can take high-powered processors like a 12th Gen Intel Alder Lake CPU and leave all competition in the dust.

Modern CPU architectures in the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme up the ante for motherboard power design by transitioning from deep power saving modes to full load almost instantaneously.

The latest ROG VRM architecture rises to the challenge by utilizing teamed power stages to rapidly swing current, while maintaining exemplary thermal.

For truly advanced performance optimization, The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme includes ROG True Voltician.

The ROG True Voltician is a miniature oscilloscope connected to a USB header displays waveforms for a CPU’s Vcore, VCCIN, and System Agent rails.

It can also be used to monitor a video card or power supply, and users can even run the True Voltician software on one PC while they get readings from another.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is equipped with DDR5 Overclocking Strength.

The lineup breaks performance limits by providing a stacked suite of overclocking parameters for not only high-speed kits, but even entry-level memory modules that have a locked power management IC (PMIC).

Asus never forgets about the cooling parameters for a motherboard and that it takes into careful consideration when viewing this matter.

It features unparalleled flexibility for either air or liquid cooling, thanks to a diverse array of heavyweight heat dissipation that keeps power delivery, M.2 drives and onboard components running cool under load, regardless of the available airflow.

With the A VRM heatsink is placed on the MOSFETs and chokes, and the embedded heatpipe connects to the aluminum I/O cover. That connected to the primary heatsink via an embedded heatpipe, increasing mass and surface area for dissipation.

The heatsink cover in the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is crafted from pure aluminum to efficiently cool the two onboard M.2 drives.

The Steel, electro-galvanized, cold-rolled coil construction strengthens the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme to prevent bending, and is finished in motherboard-matching black.

A high-quality thermal pad in the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme improves overall heat transfer from the system by bridging the heat generated by the power stages to the heatsink.

Dual M.2 slots in the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme feature back-plate blocks that ensure high-performance drives deliver peak performance even when airflow is restricted.

A dedicated chipset heatsink draws heat away to maintain optimum operating temperatures.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is a Cooler by Design that features comprehensive cooling options that are configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.

With Multiple Temperature Source, 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 via the UEFI.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme is equipped with ROG Fan Controller that offers an additional six headers that can be controlled via FanXpert 4.

The card features two temperature-sensor headers, along with two thermistors that can be attached to various components. There are also six ARGB headers to illuminate ARGB fans.

Asus does not forget about connectivity of their new Motherboard with the latest device it has. It features the latest and greatest in connectivity, including the fastest GPU and storage device transfer speeds with PCIe^® 5.0.

The smoothest online gameplay with WiFi 6E and 10 Gb Ethernet, a host of rapid-fire file transfers with Thunderbolt™ 4.

The Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band, providing up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds along with improved capacity and better performance in dense wireless environments.

With this, the Asus makes various other series of Gaming motherboard and that the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Apex is one of the products gamers can go for.

Equipped with Socket LGA1700 for 12th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron Processors and ASUS-exclusive tools including AI Overclocking, AI Cooling, AI Networking and Two-Way AI Noise-Cancellation for easy configuration.

This makes one of the best alternative for you when you are searching for the Asus Gaming Motherboard that you have been searching for.
