Networking

• WiFi 6E

  Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band, providing up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast networking speeds along with improved capacity and better performance in dense wireless environments.

  *WiFi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi. Learn more about the ASUS WiFi 6E ecosystem at www.asus.com/content/WiFi6/#WIFI-6E.

• Marvell^® AQtion 10 Gb Ethernet

  Designed to meet the demanding requirements of power users and content creators, onboard 10 Gb Ethernet provides a new level of home networking. With up to 10 times the bandwidth of standard gigabit Ethernet, streaming uncompressed 4K UHD videos, performing system backups or transferring large files is now faster than ever before.

• Intel^® 2.5 Gb Ethernet

  The Intel 2.5 Gb Ethernet port provides up to a 2.5 times improvement over standard 1 Gb Ethernet connections for faster data transfers and smooth high-res video streaming.

M.2 Storage

Ultrafast Transfer Speed

Four PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots support up to 22110 and provide NVMe^® SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data transfer speeds.

M.2 Q-Latch

The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools. The design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly eliminate traditional screws.

Next-Gen Performance

With tailored CPU power delivery and support for the latest high-performance memory, ProArt Z690-Creator WiFi easily handles the demands of the latest 12th Gen Intel^® Core™ processors. It features an intelligent VRM design that’s rated for 70 amps, plus carefully selected components and memory layout optimizations for multithreaded tasks such as 3D animation, video rendering and software compiling.

• Teamed Power Stages

  16+1 power stages rated for 70 amps combine high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest 12th Gen Intel Core processors demand.

• Digi+ Power Control

  The ASUS Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry and ensures ultra-smooth power delivery to the CPU.

• ProCool II Power Connector

  The ProCool socket is built to exacting specifications to ensure flush contact with the PSU power lines, enabling lower impedance and better heat dissipation.

• Choke & Capacitor

  Superior alloy chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, providing a higher level of performance than the industry standard.

PCIe 5.0 Ready

The 12th Gen Intel processors bring PCIe 5.0 support to the market. PCIe 5.0 offers twice the data transfer speed of PCIe 4.0, making it robust enough to handle new data-heavy tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other benefits, such as improved signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and backward compatibility with previous PCIe versions.

DDR5 Performance Boost

ProArt Z690-Creator WiFi enhances DDR5 performance by providing overclocking options for not only high-speed kits, but even entry-level memory modules that have a locked power management IC (PMIC).

• A dedicated circuit on the motherboard safely circumvents DDR5 memory PMIC restrictions, allowing you to step past the default 1.1-volt limit and push frequency and timings to the max.
• Ordinarily, a restricted PMIC that has been unlocked requires the system to be fully power-cycled each time memory voltage is adjusted. ProArt Z690-Creator WiFi leverages onboard hardware and firmware to cleverly work around this irksome limitation, enabling voltage adjustments to be applied through the same soft system-reset process employed for previous generations of DDR memory.

For users new to memory overclocking, ProArt Z690‑Creator WiFi includes the exclusive ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules. AEMP automatically detects the memory chips on your kit and then presents optimized frequency, timing and voltage profiles that you can effortlessly apply to unleash performance.

Comprehensive Cooling Design

Maintaining system stability under heavy loads is of paramount importance, so ProArt Z690-Creator WiFi features comprehensive cooling with large VRM and chipset heatsinks that strike the right balance between surface area and mass. Integrated premium components and multiple fan headers are also vital design elements that provide the best foundation for content creation systems.

• VRM Heatsinks

  Two VRM heatsinks are placed above the MOSFETs and chokes to further increase surface area for heat dissipation.

• M.2 Heatsinks

  Three dedicated heatsinks keep the four M.2 SSDs at the optimal operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.

• Chipset Heatsink

  A dedicated chipset heatsink draws heat away to help ensure that temperatures stay within an optimal range.

DIY IS EASIER THAN EVER

• CPU Socket Lever Protector

  Prevents direct contact with the VRM heatsink.

• SafeSlot

  Provides stronger PCIe^® device retention and greater shearing resistance.

• Q-DIMM

  One‑sided clips for simple and secure handling of memory modules.

• Q-LED

  Indicates CPU, memory, graphics card or boot device issues for quick diagnosis.

• SafeDIMM

  A fortified metal divider for added support and damage prevention.

• M.2 Q-Latch

  Simple locking mechanism to secure an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools.

• Q-Connector

  Sorts all front-panel cables for a neater setup.
