Teamed power stages 141 power stages combine high side and low side MOSFETS and drivers into a single package, delivering power and efficiency that the latest Intel processors can take full advantage of. DDR5 Overclocking Strength ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ROG motherboards. For DDR5, the Strix Z690 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. A dedicated circuit on the motherboard safely circumvents DDR5 memory PMIC restrictions, allowing you to step past the default 1.1 volt limit and push frequency and timings to the max. Ordinarily, a restricted PMIC that has been unlocked requires the system to be fully power cycled each time memory voltage is adjusted. ROG motherboards leverage onboard hardware and firmware to cleverly work around this irksome limitation, enabling voltage adjustments to be applied through the same soft system reset process employed for previous generations of DDR memory. Undeniably ROG Strix ROG Strix Z690 G Gaming WiFi reinforces the sci fi aesthetic of the ROG worldview with iridescent logos on the IO cover and M.2 heatsink, and the PCH cover gives users the freedom to personalize their rig with customizable RGB. 5 Way Optimization The renowned ROG UEFI BIOS provides everything you need to configure, tweak, and tune your rig. It offers intelligently simplified options for newcomers to PC DIY, as well as more comprehensive features for seasoned veterans.
