CPU modern mengemas lebih banyak core daripada pendahulunya dan set instruksi terbaru memungkinkan CPU tersebut menangani load komputasi yang padat dengan kecepatan yang luar biasa. Selain itu, CPU mengonsumsi lebih sedikit daya saat idle dan dapat melakukan transisi antar status load jauh lebih cepat. Peningkatan ini memerlukan evaluasi ulang terhadap prioritas desain daya karena phase-doubler menambah penundaan propagasi yang menghambat respons transien. Pasokan pengiriman daya sebesar 5 volt yang stabil ke semua port USB untuk meminimalkan fluktuasi daya demi mencegah kehilangan data. Providing greater electrostatic protection than the industry standard, ESD Guards cover the USB, audio and LAN ports.Fortunately, the latest integrated power components can handle higher currents than the devices of yesteryear, making it possible to implement a simple circuit topology that isn't hamstrung by the processing lag of phase-doublers. That's why the ROG Maximus Z790 Extreme utilizes teamed power stages to deliver higher burst current per phase, while maintaining the thermal performance of phase-doubled designs. ASUS menjadi produsen pertama yang mengimplementasikan phase-doubler dengan motherboard A8N32-SLI Deluxe, pada tahun 2005. VRM board dipuji karena secara elegan mengatasi kemampuan penanganan daya komponen yang tersedia pada saat itu sekaligus mengurangi gelombang voltase. Manfaat tersebut menyebabkan phase-doubler diterima secara universal di industri dan masih digunakan untuk tujuan serupa hingga saat ini. Sebuah tombol fisik yang membuka kait pengaman slot PCIe pertama dengan satu ketukan. Tombol ini membuat proses pelepasan kartu PCIe dari motherboard sangat mudah ketika ingin meningkatkan ke GPU baru atau perangkat lain yang kompatibel. The VRM heatsinks are quite heavy, have a lot of surface area with the deep miter cuts, and share the load through a heatpipe that connects the two parts. They did a great job cooling the power bits below when running our flagship Intel Core i9-13900K, as you’ll see later in the review. Along the top edge are two 8-pin EPS connectors (one required) to feed the CPU power. To the left of those is an LED that lights up if the plug isn’t connected. Supplies steady 5-volt power delivery to all USB ports, minimizing power fluctuations to prevent data loss.

Starting with the upper left-hand corner, we get a closer look at the RGB element that has matching diagonal lines running through the display. It’s much better looking than the dot-matrix style we saw in previous generations. It isn’t terribly bright, but the colors are saturated, and it looks good. Control over this and any other RGB devices attached to the board are handled through the Asus AURA RGB software (found within Armoury Crate). Off to the right is the 2-character Q-code display and the 4-light Q-LED display. These both serve to tell you what’s going on during the board’s POST process. If something goes wrong, one of the four LEDs (CPU, Boot, VGA, RAM) will remain lit, and you’ll have a more detailed code on the Q-code showing you where the problem is. Boundless power and advanced ROG firmware allow you to impose your will on Intel 13th Gen processors and DDR5 memory. Atur kecepatan kipas secara manual atau gunakan mode Standar, Silent, Turbo, atau Full Speed yang telah dikonfigurasi sebelumnya. Secara default, kipas sistem akan otomatis beralih ke kecepatan penuh jika suhu mencapai 75°C.

To support 60W, please install the power cable to the 6-pin PCIe Graphics Card connector or else only 27W will be supported. Cung cấp nguồn điện 5 volt ổn định cho tất cả các cổng USB, giảm thiểu dao động điện năng để tránh mất dữ liệu. Armoury Crate is a software utility designed to give you centralized control of supported gaming products, making it easy to tune the look and feel of your system. From a single intuitive interface, Armoury Crate helps you customize RGB lighting and effects for compatible devices and synchronize them with Aura Sync to create a unified lighting scheme across your system. In addition, Armoury Crate’s Fan Xpert4 tool provides comprehensive control over fans, water pumps, and all-in-one (AIO) coolers. Menunjukkan status daya dan potensi masalah pada CPU, memori, kartu grafis, atau perangkat booting untuk proses diagnosis cepat.Moving past the chipset area and onto the right edge, we run into the six SATA ports (the top four are from the chipset while the bottom is from an ASMedia controller) and two front panel USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) ports. Armoury Crate adalah utilitas software yang dirancang untuk memberikan kontrol terpusat terhadap produk game yang telah didukung. Dengan software ini, pengguna dapat mengatur tampilan dan nuansa sistem Anda dengan mudah. Dari satu antarmuka yang intuitif, Armoury Crate dapat membantu mengatur pencahayaan dan efek RGB untuk perangkat yang kompatibel serta menyesuaikannya dengan Aura Sync untuk membuat skema pencahayaan terpadu di seluruh sistem Anda. Selain itu, tool Fan Xpert4 Armory Crate juga menyediakan kontrol komprehensif atas kipas, pompa air, dan pendingin all-in-one (AIO). Untungnya, komponen daya terbaru yang terintegrasi dapat menangani arus yang lebih tinggi daripada perangkat sebelumnya, sehingga dapat menerapkan topologi sirkuit sederhana yang tidak dilemahkan oleh lambatnya peroses phase-doubler. Itulah mengapa ROG Maximus Z790 Extreme menggunakan power stage yang digabungkan untuk menghasilkan arus ledakan yang lebih tinggi per phase, dengan tetap mempertahankan kinerja termal dari desain phase-doubler. Take system bandwidth to the extreme with future-ready ports for graphics, storage, and peripherals, and light up network connections with ultraspeed WIFI and Ethernet. Plug in to your heart’s content and then get deeper into the game with high-fidelity onboard audio. cấu hình tốc độ hoạt động của quạt theo cách thủ công hoặc sử dụng các chế độ Tiêu chuẩn (Standard), Im lặng (Silent), Turbo hoặc Tốc độ tối đa (Full Speed) được cấu hình sẵn.
