Description - ROG MAXIMUS Z790 DARK HERO ROG Maximus Z790 Dark Hero boasts solid cooling, Wi-Fi 7 and a large PCIe 5.0 slot for unrivaled performance, and offers full compatibility with 14th Gen Intel Core processors. Meanwhile, its discreet design is highlighted by new Polymo lighting, which illuminates the I/O shield with a micro-structured dual-layer RGB array and adds a personalized touch of style to your gaming setup. ROG OVERCLOCKING TECHNOLOGIES Get your psyche up and turn on Dark Hero overclocking with built-in intelligence to scan, predict and adjust CPU performance parameters, and tools to control and track key system parameters. AI OVERCLOCKING Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles your CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push your system to its limits. The predicted values can be applied automatically or used as a starting point for further experiments. DIFFERENTIAL SENSOR Conventional motherboards use a single-ended sensor, drawn from a location that is not ideal, leading to a large discrepancy between the actual voltage supplied to the processor and the value reported to the software. ROG Maximus Z790 Dark Hero features differential detection circuitry and a delicate IC that simplify overclocking and tuning, allowing for more accurate voltage tracking.
Description - The ROG Maximus Z790 Dark Hero boasts robust cooling, WiFi 7 and ample PCIe 5.0 slot for unmatched performance, and it offers full compatibility with 14th Gen Intel Core processors. Meanwhile, its stealthy design is accentuated by new Polymo lighting, which illuminates the I/O shroud with a microstructural array of dual-layer RGB and adds a personalized touch of style to your gaming setup.
