ALL-ROUND PERFORMANCE

ROG Strix Z590-I Gaming WiFi helps you get the most out of your gaming build with up-rated power delivery, optimized cooling, and intelligent controls that let you manage overclocking, cooling, networking and audio settings.

POWER DESIGN

Digital power control and an array of power stages provide the muscle needed to control the latest Intel CPUs.

TEAMED POWER STAGES

8+2 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest Intel processors demand.

FERRITE CHOKES AND CAPACITORS

Superior chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, enabling performance that exceeds industry standards.

TEN-LAYER PCB

The PCB design quickly dissipates heat around the VRM to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.

POWER CONNECTOR

The ASUS ProCool II socket is built to tight specifications to ensure flush contact with the PSU power lines. Metal armor improves heat dissipation, and lower impedance helps prevent hotspots and improves reliability.

LEADING CONNECTIVITIY

ROG Strix Z590-I Gaming WiFi includes the latest connectivity for supersmooth online experiences and blisteringly fast large file transfers. Superior audio performance gives you a massive advantage, allowing you to pick up on the smallest audio cues for a completely immersive gaming experience.

THUNDERBOLT 4

A Thunderbolt™ 4 USB Type-C® port delivers up to 40 Gbps of bidirectional bandwidth for the latest high-speed devices and drives. In PCIe mode, the port provides 32 Gbps of bandwidth, which is ample to drive two external 4K displays.

PLAY IN STYLE

Pair ROG Strix Z590-I Gaming WiFi with other products from the diverse ROG ecosystem to create a fully customized gaming setup that reflects your personal style.

ROG GIVES YOU MORE

ROG-exclusive software utilities deliver intuitive audio tuning and gaming enhancements so you can configure your gaming build the way you want. To further aid system setup and performance tuning, the highly acclaimed AIDA64 and MemTest86 utilities have also been added to the mix.

UEFI BIOS

The renowned ROG UEFI (BIOS) provides everything you need to configure, tweak, and tune your rig. It offers intelligently simplified options for newcomers to PC DIY, as well as more comprehensive features for seasoned veterans.

5-WAY OPTIMIZATION

Take care of complex tuning with just one click. ASUS 5-Way Optimization is a system-wide tuning utility that overclocks the processor and tunes fan speeds to ensure the best balance between cooling and acoustics.
