While DDR5 is ordinarily limited to a maximum of 1.1 volts, ASUS has developed a special blend of circuitry and firmware for its Z690 motherboards that bypasses this restriction, freeing users to discover the limits of the new memory technology for themselves. They can either apply manual tweaks or enable AEMP in the BIOS to quickly unlock a performance boost.To make this possible, ASUS has worked diligently with major DDR5 manufacturers around the world including Adata, Corsair, Crucial, Geil, G.SKILL, Kingston, Klevv, and Teamgroupto ensure high compatibility and stability.
To help get users up and running on these new platforms, every ASUS Z690 motherboard also features built-in Windows 11 support, and each one features mounting holes that are compatible withCPU coolers designed for either LGA 1200 orthe new LGA 1700 socket. And for purchasers of a Z690 ROG or ProArt motherboard, ASUS offers a trial membership of Adobe Creative Cloud.
In addition, for users who like to venture beyond the nuts and bolts and linger on personalization and aesthetics, ASUS brings all-new visualslike the AniMe Matrix™display that features mini programmable RGB LEDs to show off personal style with custom lighting designs, unique animations and live audio visualizations, plus striking designs that evoke sci-fi worlds from cyberpunk to aerospace exploration.
