COOLING

PRIME Z790-A WIFI motherboard is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.

Heatsinks

Removable captive screws reduce risk of drops or loss during heatsink removal.

M.2 Heatsinks

Three M.2 heatsinks cover four M.2 slots, warding off throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during sustained transfers.

VRM Heatsinks and Thermal Pads

The extensive surface area of the massive heatsinks cover the VRMs and chokes to improve heat dissipation. Together with specially engineered thermal pads, they improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.

Cooler by Design

PRIME Z790-A WIFI features comprehensive cooling controls that are configurable via Fan Xpert 4 software or via the UEFI BIOS.

PERFORMANCE

The PRIME Z790-A WIFI motherboard is built to handle the high core counts and bandwidth demands of 13th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors. ASUS Z790 motherboard provides all the fundamentals to boost daily productivity, so your system will be ready for action with stable power, intuitive cooling and flexible data transfer options.

Robust Power Design

Stable power is essential to extract every last bit of performance out of Intel® processors. The PRIME Z790-A WIFI is geared to cater to the demands of these high-core-count CPUs.

ProCool Connectors

Proprietary connectors augment the motherboard's link to the PSU with 8+8 pin connectors that pass 12 volts of power directly to the processors. Each jack features solid pins that can handle more current than hollow-pin connectors.
