Asus ROG STRIX Z790 GAMING WIFI(90MB1E10-M0EAY0)

ROG STRIX Z790-H GAMING WIFI

Strike stealthily with the powerfully potent ROG Strix Z790-H. Thick black heatsinks keep VRM temperatures under wraps, allowing Intel 13th Gen processors room for higher boosts. Four M.2 slots are similarly outfitted, and the top slot comes with a combo sink to sneak in extra cooling. PCIe 5.0 support lies in wait for next-gen graphics cards, and cutting-edge WiFi 6E and USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 fully flesh out connectivity.
