Z790 chipset with LGA 1700 socket

The ASUS Z790 GAMING WIFI7 motherboard supports Intel Core 12th, 13th and 14th generation processors on an LGA 1700 socket. It uses the Intel Z790 chipset and delivers a 14+1 DrMOS power design with 6-layer PCB for stable operation. Four DDR5 slots accept up to 192 GB of memory running at speeds up to 7200 MT/s when overclocked.

Connectivity suite built around Wi-Fi 7 and PCIe 5.0

The board includes one PCIe 5.0 x16 slot for graphics cards and three PCIe 4.0 x16 slots operating at x4 mode. Three M.2 slots support drives up to 22110 length on PCIe 4.0 x4. Networking uses Realtek 1Gb Ethernet alongside Wi-Fi 7 with 2x2 antenna configuration on 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands. USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C and front-panel USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C headers provide high-speed peripheral connections.

Memory capacity scales to 192 GB

Dual-channel DDR5 architecture handles 4800 MT/s JEDEC speeds out of the box and scales through XMP 3.0 profiles up to 7200 MT/s. The 14+1 power stage design with 50 A and 60 A DrMOS stages supports heavy memory overclocking and multi-core CPU loads. Four SATA 6Gb/s ports remain available alongside the three M.2 slots for mixed storage configurations.

Questions about this item

Do I need DDR5 memory modules to use the Z790 GAMING WIFI7?

Yes, the board has four 288-pin DDR5 slots supporting speeds from 4800 up to 7200 MT/s when overclocked, with a maximum capacity of 192 GB.

Will my existing PCIe 4.0 graphics card work in the PCIe 5.0 x16 slot?

The primary x16 slot is wired for PCIe 5.0 and is backward compatible, so a PCIe 4.0 card will operate at its rated speed.

How can I confirm Wi-Fi 7 is active after building the system?

In Windows 11, open Device Manager, locate the wireless adapter, and verify the connection shows 802.11be with 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands available.
