Robust power and AI features
The motherboard uses a 16+1+2+2 power solution rated at 110A per stage with ProCool II power connectors, MicroFine alloy chokes, and metallic capacitors to ensure stable processor operation. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to set the optimal configuration. The NPU Boost feature overclocks the NPU with a single click, increasing performance by up to 24%. AI Cooling II balances the thermal and acoustic properties of any PC build with a single click. AI Networking II combines technologies that continuously optimise network performance, provide a reliable connection, and unlock maximum WiFi 7 speed. DIMM Fit is a BIOS feature that performs a precise analysis of individual memory modules to optimise performance and detect potential issues.
Advanced cooling and connectivity
The board is equipped with massive heatsinks with an integrated I/O cover, M.2 heatsinks, an M.2 backplate, and a VRM heatsink, all connected by an L-shaped heatpipe for effective heat dissipation. The Strix Z890-F board features five chassis fan headers, each supporting automatic detection of PWM or DC fans. The primary PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot with PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim fully supports modern graphics cards. WiFi 7 offers a 320MHz wide 6GHz band and 4096 QAM. The ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna provides a stable wireless connection. The ROG SupremeFX ALC4080 codec with a Savitech SV3H712 amplifier and Dolby Atmos ensures high-quality audio output. ASUS Fan Xpert 4 software provides all-in-one control over fans and water coolers.
Personalisation and DIY-friendliness
The BIOS Q-Dashboard simplifies motherboard configuration by visually displaying hardware connections and corresponding BIOS settings. M.2 Q-Release, M.2 Q-Slide, and M.2 Q-LATCH technologies make installing storage devices easier. The PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim allows for easy removal of graphics cards. The Q-LED and Q-CODE diagnostic displays help with troubleshooting any potential problems. ASUS Aura offers lighting control with presets for both built-in RGB LEDs and third-party accessories, and the effects can be synchronised across compatible ROG devices. Armoury Crate software centralises control of supported gaming products from a single interface.
