INTELLIGENT CONTROL
The TUF GAMING Z790 motherboards pack flexible tools to tune every aspect of your system, enabling performance tweaks to expertly match the way you play.
AI Overclocking
Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.
AI Cooling II
Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. An ASUS-exclusive algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then it monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
Rock-Solid Performance
With upgraded power delivery and comprehensive cooling options to fuel the latest Intel CPUs, plus support for DDR5 memory and PCIe 4.0 storage, the TUF GAMING Z790-PRO WIFI is the perfect foundation for your next Intel battle rig.
Premium Power Delivery
16+1+1 power stages are each rated to handle up to 60 amperes, combining high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into a single package to deliver power, efficiency and stable performance for all compatible Intel processors.

Auto Backup for Your Computer!
As the first foray of AI Overclocking on an AMD architecture, the set of parameters has changed substantially, but voltage and clock speeds are still the primary targets for adjustment.
Predictive settings in the utility are designed to work in tandem with Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO), but they go one step further by enhancing the values for EDC, TDC, and PPT, as well as tuning the curve optimizer.
Finally, by enabling the Dynamic OC Switcher, AI Overclocking ensures that the CPU is using ideal settings whether in single- or multi-threaded workloads.
USB 20Gbps (Type-C®)
Extensive USB support ensures connections to a wide array of external devices. This TUF GAMING motherboard includes a USB Type-C port on the rear I/O panel that delivers transfer speeds of up to 20 Gbps.
PCIe 5.0
The latest 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 electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and backward compatibility with previous versions of the PCIe bus.
Front USB 20Gbps (Type-C®)
The TUF GAMING Z790-PRO WIFI features a USB 20Gbps Type-C® front panel connector for speedy data transfers up to 20 Gbps. And it offers Power Delivery (PD) 3.0 technology to provide up to 30 watts of quick charging. With USB Wattage Watcher, users can glance at their device's charging wattage in real time and check on their device’s Fast-Charging status.
Thunderbolt™(USB4®) Support
The TUF GAMING Z790 series features Thunderbolt 4 support via an on-board header. With an Intel-certified ASUS ThunderboltEX 4 add-on card*, this motherboard can also enable bi-directional speeds of up to 40 Gbps on a single cable. Additionally, this card has a daisy-chain function for multiscreen connection and supports up to an 8K-resolution display. It can also provide up to 100 watts of power to fast-charge devices.
