- ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ROG motherboards. For DDR5, the Strix Z690 lineup breaks performance limits by providing a stacked suite of overclocking parameters for not only high-speed kits, but even entry-level memory modules that have a locked power management IC (PMIC). New to overclocking? Click here to learn about the ASUS-exclusive AEMP technology A dedicated circuit on the motherboard safely circumvents DDR5 memory PMIC restrictions, allowing you to step past the default 1.1-volt limit & push frequency & timings to the max. Ordinarily, a restricted PMIC that has been unlocked requires the system to be fully power-cycled each time memory voltage is adjusted. ROG motherboards leverage onboard hardware & firmware to cleverly work around this irksome limitation, enabling voltage adjustments to be applied through the same soft system-reset process employed for previous generations of DDR memory. PCIe&174; 4.0-Ready With three strategically placed M.2 slots, ROG Strix Z690-G Gaming Wi Fi leverages mighty CPU & chipset bandwidth to deliver lightning-fast PCIe 4.0 data transfers, Intel NVM Express&174; RAID, & high-capacity drive options that blaze past traditional SATA-based SSDs. WIFI 6E (802.11 AX) Onboard Wi Fi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz b&. It provides up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band & up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds & enhanced capacity as well as better performance in dense wireless environments. * Wi Fi 6E availability & features are dependent on regulatory limitations & co-existence with 5 GHz Wi Fi. Intel&174; 2.5 Gb Ethernet Onboard 2.5 Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost, delivering speeds up to 2.5X faster standard Ethernet connections for faster file transfers, low-lag gaming & high-res video streaming. SUPREMEFX ROG Supreme FX is a unique blend of hardware & software that provides superior audio. In ROG Strix Z690-G Gaming Wi Fi, Supreme FX features the ALC4080 codec to increase playback resolution from 192 k Hz to 384 k Hz across all channels. The front-panel output is streamed through a highly integrated Savitech amplifier that&153;s capable of driving of a wide variety of gaming headsets & high-fidelity headphones. UNDENIABLY ROG STRIX ROG Strix Z690-G Gaming Wi Fi reinforces the sci-fi aesthetic of the ROG worldview with iridescent logos on the I/O cover & M.2 heatsink, & the PCH cover gives users the freedom to personalize their rig with customizable RGB.
