ASUS AI INTELLIGENCE

AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of WiFi 7. Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. Using AI technology to understand natural-language questions or scenario descriptions, ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.

OVERCLOCKING

The integrated NPU in Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows — and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%. Conventional motherboards use single-ended sensing tapped from a location that isn’t ideal, leading to a large disparity between the actual voltage fed to the CPU and the value reported to software. The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features a differential-sensing circuit and delicate IC that simplify overclocking and tuning by allowing you to track voltages more accurately.

MEMORY

Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits can be driven far beyond the 8 GT/s mark on the ROG Maximus Z890 Hero.

CONNECTIVITY

The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features three PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots and three PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots onboard, all of which support ROG M.2 PowerBoost to help ensure that every onboard M.2 device can operate simultaneously at optimal performance. The primary PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot with PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim fully supports next-gen graphics cards.

UEFI BIOS

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.

PERSONALIZATION

Up your game with complementary Aura Sync 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.
