ROG STRIX Z690-I GAMING WIFI

ALL-ROUND PERFORMANCE

ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming Wi-Fi helps you get the most out of your gaming build with high-end power delivery, DDR5 memory support, optimized cooling, and intelligent controls that let you manage overclocking, cooling, networking and audio settings.

• Power Design
  Digital power control and an array of power stages provide the muscle needed to control the latest Intel CPUs.
• POWER STAGES
  10+1 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest Intel processors can take full advantage of.
• ALLOY CHOKES AND DURABLE CAPACITORS
  Premium chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, enabling performance that exceeds industry standards.
• PROCOOL II POWER CONNECTOR
  ASUS ProCool II connectors are built to tight specifications to ensure full contact with power supply cable wiring. A metal sheath improves heat dissipation, and low electrical impedance helps prevent hotspots and bolsters reliability.
• DIGI+ POWER CONTROL
  The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry, ensuring ultra-smooth and clean power delivery to the CPU.
• TEN-LAYER PCB
  The PCB design quickly dissipates heat around the VRM to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.
• DDR5 OVERCLOCKING STRENGTH
  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).
• PCIE 4.0-READY
  ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming Wi-Fi features two onboard M.2 slots, both of which supports wickedly fast PCIe 4.0 drives for provide maximum storage flexibility and lightning-fast data speeds available with the latest Intel processors.

PERSONALIZATION

• Integrated I/O Cover and VRM Heatsinks
  Connected by an L-shaped heat pipe, the two VRM heatsinks and aluminum I/O cover provide ample mass and surface area to deal with the thermals of Intel’s latest processors.
  Thermal Pads
  Specially engineered thermal pads efficiently transfer heat from the inductor and phase array to the heatsink.
  Triple-decker heatsink
  The new triple-decker heatsink is cleverly designed to stack two M.2 slots, both with Q-Latch and full-size, double-sided heatsinks with thermal pads. And there’s a beefy chipset heatsink at the bottom to deliver great cooling performance.
  CPU Fan Header
  A dedicated pair of PWM/DC fan headers for CPU coolers.
  AIO Pump Fan Header
  A dedicated PWM/DC header for self-contained water-cooling setups.
  M.2 Heatsink
  Keeps the M.2 SSD at the optimum operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.
  M.2 Backplate
  Provides additional mass to deal with the thermal load of high-performance M.2 drives.
  4-Pin PWM/DC Fan Header
  Each header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.
  TWO-WAY AI NOISE CANCELATION
  This powerful ASUS-exclusive utility leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone* and incoming audio while preserving voices. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks and other ambient noises are removed, so you can hear and be heard with perfect clarity while gaming or during calls.
  AI OVERCLOCKING
  ROG AI Overclocking is an intelligent utility that helps you get the most out of your build by automatically profiling your CPU and cooling system to predict optimal voltage and frequency settings.
  SUPREMEFX
  ROG SupremeFX is a unique blend of hardware and software that provides superior audio. In ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming Wi-Fi, SupremeFX features the ALC4080 codec to increase playback resolution from 192 kHz to 384 kHz across all channels. The front-panel output is streamed through a highly integrated Savitech amplifier that’s capable of driving of a wide variety of gaming headsets and high-fidelity headphones.
  Q-LED
  Onboard LEDs indicate power status or issues with the CPU, memory, graphics card or boot device.

CONNECTIVITY

• ROG Front Panel SATA Card
  The ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming Wi-Fi comes with an expansion card that provides additional functionality including four SATA ports, one ARGB lighting header, and connectors for a front panel header and a PC speaker. This efficient use of space enables builders to construct some of the most compact PC builds with full feature, or could also connect the power button via the 2-pin Power_BTN onboard for even more compact builds.
  
  • 4 x SATA 6 Gb/s ports
  • 1 x Addressable Gen 2 header
  • 1 x Front panel header
  • 1 x Speaker header
• DUAL THUNDERBOLT™ 4 PORTS
  Mini-ITX systems often find homes in entertainment centers for HTPC duty. The ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming Wi-Fi stands ready with dual Thunderbolt™ 4 USB-C ports on the rear I/O panel whose bidirectional 40 Gbps connectors can handle two external 4K displays at once, plus a variety of other compatible accessories.
• Wi-Fi 6E (802.11 AX)
  Onboard Wi-Fi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band. It provides up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds and improved capacity as well as better performance in dense wireless environments.
  * Wi-Fi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
• Intel 2.5 Gb Ethernet
  Onboard 2.5 Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost, with up to a 2.5X improvement over standard Ethernet connections for faster file transfers, smoother lag-free gaming and high-res video streaming.
• WI-FI 6E ANTENNA
  The antenna has two built-in transmitters and receivers to enable faster transmission speeds, and it supports the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands.
• ADJUSTABLE DESIGN
  Four-way positioning enables better signal reception.
• MAGNETIC BASE
  A powerful magnetic base secures the antenna on the top or side of the PC case.
