ROG STRIX Z890-F & Ultra 9 285K Combo

This bundle pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with an ASUS ROG STRIX Z890-F GAMING WIFI motherboard. The CPU is built on a 3nm process and integrates Intel Graphics for display output without a discrete card. The board uses the LGA 1851 socket and Intel Z890 chipset in an ATX form factor. It targets enthusiasts building a high-end desktop for gaming and heavy multitasking.

Capacity and Headroom

The processor delivers 36MB of L3 cache and 40MB of L2 cache with a 125W base power rating. The motherboard supports DDR5 memory up to 8800 MT/s when overclocked and provides five M.2 slots for fast storage expansion. PCIe 5.0 lanes are available for graphics and storage, while WiFi 7 and a 2.5Gb wired NIC handle networking. The 16+1+2+2 power stage design with 110A, 90A and 80A modules supplies ample current for sustained loads.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

Large VRM cooling armor, dedicated M.2 heatsinks and a backplate dissipate heat from the power delivery and storage devices. Headers for CPU, pump and 4-pin chassis fans allow flexible air or liquid cooling configurations. AI Intelligent Thermal 2.0 monitors temperatures and adjusts fan curves automatically. The CPU’s 125W base power sets the baseline for cooler selection and case airflow planning.
