For those looking to complement their TUF Gaming motherboard with an array of components and peripherals with the same aesthetic, the TUF Gaming Alliance is a collaboration between ASUS and trusted PC component brands to ensure compatibility across a wide range of parts, such as PC cases, power supplies, CPU coolers, memory kits and more. With new partnerships and components being added regularly, the TUF Gaming Alliance will continue to grow even stronger. On the subject of audio, this motherboard went with a more conventional setup which is the same as the STRIX B760-A GAMING motherboard: Realtek ALC4080 codec paired with Savitech SV3H712 amp (located at the left of capacitors). For reference – the more “mainstream” Z790 HERO uses Realtek ALC4082 and ESS ES9218 Quad DAC pairing to power the audio. Storage & Expansion Fortunately, the latest integrated power components can handle higher currents than the devices of yesteryear, making it possible to implement a simple circuit topology that isn't hamstrung by the processing lag of phase-doublers. That's why the ROG Maximus Z790 Apex utilizes teamed power stages to deliver higher burst current per phase, while maintaining the thermal performance of phase-doubled designs. Providing greater electrostatic protection than the industry standard, ESD guards cover the USB, audio, and LAN ports. Makes tuning more intuitive by recording both the true highest and lowest core voltage and then passing the data to HWiNFO and AI Suite 3.

A PCIe 5.0 x16 slot lets users access the fastest graphics cards of today and tomorrow. Four onboard M.2 slots, three for PCIe 4.0, make it easy to set up a large and speedy gaming library. Networking comes courtesy of an Intel 2.5 Gbps Ethernet controller, and an Intel WiFi 6E radio lets users connect to a compatible router over the wide-open 6 GHz band in selected regions. A suite of USB ports, including a speedy USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C port on the rear I/O panel, lets users connect all their favorite gaming peripherals.The sharp-eyed among you have probably noticed this VRM array looks a bit unusual. You’d be correct: the traditional cylindrical-shaped electrolyte capacitor is not present on this motherboard. Instead, it’s replaced by the SMD (surface-mounted device) capacitors that sit just outside of the MOSFETs, as well as on the inside of chokes. Users building a content-creation machine ready to harness a 13th Gen Intel CPU need look no further than the ProArt Z790-Creator WiFi. With a sophisticated style rooted in clean lines, graceful angles, and precise symmetry—and a cutting-edge feature set—this is the motherboard they are looking for. Immersive Gaming Audio: ALC4080 with Savitech SV3H712 amplifier, along with DTS ® Sound Unbound and Sonic Studio III Kết nối mạng hiệu năng cao: Onboard WiFi 6E (802.11ax) trên bo, Ethernet Intel ® 2.5Gb với ASUS LANGuard
