ROG Maximus Z790 Hero BTF is the first ROG motherboard with a hidden-connector design and graphics card high-power slot that delivers up to 600 watts of power for BTF graphics cards through the motherboard, providing an unprecedented level of cable management to PC DIY enthusiasts. It also boasts robust cooling, WiFi 7 and ample PCIe 5.0 slots for unmatched performance, plus full compatibility with 14th Gen Intel Core processors.
The ROG Maximus Z790 Hero BTF introduces a hidden-connector design and a high-power slot for graphics cards, delivering up to 600 watts through the motherboard. This offers superior cable management for PC DIY enthusiasts. It features strong cooling, WiFi 7, and numerous PCIe 5.0 slots for top-notch performance, compatible with 14th Gen Intel Core processors.
When you integrate a BTF graphics card, motherboard, and chassis together, you create a comprehensive hidden-connector setup. Furthermore, the new high-power slot featured on BTF motherboards can supply up to 600 watts to BTF graphics cards, facilitating the implementation of the Advanced BTF approach. Consequently, builders who opt for exclusively BTF components can eliminate visible cables, resulting in a sleeker aesthetic.
The hidden-connector design can be ideal for first-time builders, because it provides easier cable management. The absence of visible cables also creates a clean and tidy look that would normally require an expert.
With PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim, simply tilt the card toward the latching mechanism to automatically unlock it from the PCIe slot. This makes upgrades and maintenance easier than ever before. Users will no longer need to fiddle with a tricky latch or even press a button to release their graphics card from the slot.
Psyche up and engage the Hero BTF overclocker in you, with onboard intelligence to scan, predict and adapt CPU performance parameters, and tools to command and track system vitals.
Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.
Next-gen WiFi 7* chipset introduces all-new ultrawide 320 MHz channel bandwidth in the 6 GHz band and 4096 QAM, delivering up to 2.4X ultra-fast WiFi speeds**. The revolutionary Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming, and industrial IoT.
Up your game with complementary Aura Snc enhanced aesthetics, featuring preset lighting effects that can be easily synchronized across compatible ROG graphics cards, monitors, keyboards, and mice to give your setup a unified look.
