ASUS PRIME Z790M-PLUS D4 LGA1700 Micro-ATX Motherboard (DDR4)

The ASUS TUF Gaming Z790M-PLUS motherboard supports Intel’s 12/13th generation processors and has three PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, features PCIe 5.0, USB 3.2 Gen2 and a whole host of other features that make this board ideal for virtually any scenario.

ASUS Prime series motherboards are expertly engineered to unleash the full potential of the 12/13th Gen Intel Core Processors. Boasting a robust power design, comprehensive cooling solutions and intelligent tuning options, PRIME Z790M-PLUS D4 provides users and PC DIY builders with a range of performance optimisations via intuitive software and firmware features.

Three M.2 Slots (up to 64 Gbps)

PRIME Z790M-PLUS D4 offers a total of three M.2 slots that support data-transfer speeds of up to 64 Gbps via PCIe 4.0, enabling quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.

PCIe 5.0 Slot

PCIe 5.0 offers twice the data transfer speed of PCIe 4.0, making it robust enough to handle new data-heavy tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other benefits, such as electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and compatibility with previous versions of PCI Express.

Intelligent Control

ASUS Intelligent Control makes your PC smart. Along with taking care of complex tuning and dynamically optimising essential aspects of your system, it offers intelligently simplified options for newcomers to PC DIY, as well as more comprehensive features for seasoned veterans.

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C

A batch of USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including the rear USB Type-C connector with ultrafast USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 for transmission speeds of up to 20 Gbps.

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.

Robust Power Design

Stable power is essential to extract every last bit of performance out of Intel processors. The PRIME Z790M-PLUS D4 is geared to cater to the demands of these high-core-count CPUs.
