Boasting a robust power design comprehensive cooling solutions and intelligent tuning options PRIME Z790-P D4 provides users and PC DIY builders with a range of performance optimizations via intuitive software and firmware features. 14 + 1 Teamed Power Stages (50A) with Enlarged Heatsinks Gen 5 Slot for Graphics Card DDR4 Support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C® & Thunderbolt (USB4®) Support 2.5 Gb Ethernet Intelligent Control Al Cooling II Customization Boost Your Productivity The PRIME Z790-P D4 motherboard is built to handle the high core counts and bandwidth demands of 13th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors. ASUS Z790 motherboard provides all the fundamentals to boost daily productivity so your system will be ready for action with stable power intuitive cooling and flexible data transfer options. DDR4 5333 (OC) Improvements to trace routing design provide the latest Intel processors with enhanced access to memory bandwidth. ASUS OptiMem II technology carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce path distance and it adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk. Three M.2 Slots (up to 64 Gbps) PRIME Z790-P D4 offers a total of three M.2 slots that support data-transfer speeds of up to 64 Gbps via PCIe® 4.0 enabling quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives. All-Around Energy Efficiency The Power Saving function contains several settings can easily optimise power consumption and maximise energy savings. You can enable a CPU power limit darken Aura lighting and set the fan profile to a power saving mode. You can also toggle the Power Saver plan that is built into Microsoft Windows. Flexible Air And Liquid Cooling Controls ASUS Fan Xpert 4 software provides comprehensive control over fans water pumps and all-in-one (AIO) coolers. Whether cooling with air or water an Auto-Tuning mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There’s also an Extreme Quiet mode that reduces all fan speeds to below the default minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks. Fans water pumps and AIO coolers can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS. Precise Digital Power Control The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings. It also allows you to fine-tune your CPU for ultimate stability and performance. Multiple Temperature Sources Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 4 allows you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimise cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks. AIO Pump Header A dedicated PWM/DC header for self-contained water-cooling setups. Smart Protection A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from overheating and overcurrent. 4-pin PWM/DC Fan Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans. VRM Heatsinks And Thermal Pads The extensive surface area of the massive heatsinks cover the VRMs and chokes to improve heat dissipation. Together with specially engineered thermal pads they improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance Aura Sync A well-tuned enthusiast system deserves a matching aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of functional presets for the built-in RGB LEDs as well as strips and devices connected to the onboard RGB headers — and it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-capable hardware. UEFI BIOS The renowned ASUS UEFI BIOS provides everything you need to configure tweak and tune your system. It offers intelligently simplified options for PC DIY beginners as well as comprehensive features for seasoned veterans.
