ROG MAXIMUS XIII HERO Z590 ATX Motherboard

The ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XIII HERO is an ATX motherboard built on the Intel Z590 chipset with an LGA 1200 socket. It supports 10th and 11th Generation Intel Core processors and uses DDR4 memory. The board provides two PCIe 4.0/3.0 x16 slots that operate at x16 or x8/x8 depending on the CPU generation, plus a third PCIe 3.0 x16 slot running at up to x4 mode.

Suited for high-end Intel builds.

This motherboard targets enthusiasts building full-size ATX systems who need robust multi-GPU PCIe lane configurations and three M.2 slots. It is not suitable for micro-ATX or mini-ITX chassis due to its ATX form factor. Buyers requiring newer processor sockets, different memory generations, or integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth should evaluate alternative platforms.

Three M.2 slots for storage expansion

A defining specification is the inclusion of three M.2 slots, allowing multiple high-speed storage devices to be installed directly on the board. The package includes only the motherboard and I/O shield; SATA cables, Wi-Fi antennas, and other accessories are not supplied. Verify your storage and accessory requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the board come with SATA cables or a Wi-Fi antenna?

Only the motherboard and I/O shield are included; cables, antennas and other accessories are not supplied.

Which memory type do I need for this Z590 board?

Install DDR4 modules; the four DIMM slots support that standard exclusively.

Can I run two graphics cards at full x16 speed with an 11th-gen CPU?

With an 11th-generation processor the two primary PCIe 4.0 x16 slots operate in x8/x8 mode when both are populated.
