ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z890 HERO LGA 1851 ATX Motherboard

The ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z890 HERO is an ATX motherboard built for users who expect consistent performance while gaming, creating content, or streaming. It pairs with Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors through the LGA 1851 socket, delivering a solid foundation for high frame rates, quick renders, and heavy multitasking.

Four DDR5 DIMM slots accept up to 192 GB of memory and reach transfer speeds as high as 9200 MT/s. Whether you are compiling code, layering effects in 4K video, or running a competitive esports title, the board keeps data moving quickly between CPU and RAM so applications stay responsive.

Six M.2 slots handle storage duties. Three of them use PCIe 5.0 for next-generation SSDs, and three rely on PCIe 4.0 for current drives you may already own. With this mix, you can dedicate one ultra-fast drive to an operating system, another to games, and still have room for large project files without juggling external devices.

Connectivity covers nearly every scenario. Integrated Wi-Fi 7 lets you join the newest wireless networks, while dual Ethernet ports supply 5 Gb and 2.5 Gb wired options for low-latency online matches or large file transfers. Two Thunderbolt 4 ports support external GPUs, fast storage arrays, and 8K displays, giving creative professionals a clean single-cable setup.

For audio, SupremeFX 7.1 surround sound with an ESS Quad DAC delivers clear positional cues in games and accurate tonal detail when monitoring a mix. AI-driven utilities can dial in overclocks and fan curves automatically, and Q-Release, Q-Latch, and Q-Antenna mechanisms shorten build time by removing the usual fiddling with screws and clips.

From a first-time builder upgrading a gaming rig to an experienced editor assembling a workstation, the ROG MAXIMUS Z890 HERO offers the headroom, expansion, and ease of use needed to keep a modern PC relevant for years.
