Compact LGA 1700 platform
The ASUS ROG Strix Z790-I Gaming WiFi 6E is a mini-ITX motherboard built for Intel Core processors from the 12th, 13th and 14th generations. It fits small-form-factor cases while delivering a full feature set for gaming and content creation. The board includes WiFi 6E, Thunderbolt and 2.5 Gb Ethernet for modern connectivity. Builders get a premium foundation in a compact footprint.
Sustained power delivery
A 10+1 power stage design rated at 105 A per stage handles multi-core workloads without throttling. Thick heatsinks, high-conductivity pads and an L-shaped heatpipe keep VRM temperatures stable during long rendering or compile sessions. ProCool II connectors ensure reliable current flow under continuous load. The thermal solution is engineered for sustained performance rather than short bursts.
DDR5 capacity ceiling
Two DDR5 slots support up to 256 GB of memory in dual-channel mode at speeds up to 7200 MT/s when overclocked. This maximum capacity decides whether the board suits high-density workloads such as virtualization or large dataset processing. Builders planning 256 GB kits must verify module compatibility on the vendor QVL. The two-slot layout limits total capacity compared to four-slot ATX alternatives.

Questions sur cet article
Will this board fit in a mini-ITX case and still leave room for a full-length graphics card?
Yes, the mini-ITX form factor measures 170 mm x 170 mm and provides a single PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, so a full-length card installs directly above the board without extra clearance issues.
Can I run two M.2 SSDs at their rated speeds without sharing bandwidth with the graphics card?
The primary M.2_1 slot runs at PCIe 5.0 x4 from the CPU, while M.2_2 uses PCIe 4.0 x4 from the chipset, so both operate independently of the x16 graphics slot.
What memory speeds are officially supported out of the box without manual tuning?
The board validates DDR5 up to 5600 MT/s natively; speeds from 5800 MT/s to 7200 MT/s are listed as overclocked profiles that require XMP activation in the BIOS.
