ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI
The ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI empowers creators of all levels by maximising the
performance of the latest Intel® Core™ Ultra Processor (Series 2) processors with
16+1+2+2 team power stages, DDR5 slots, PCIe® 5.0 and lightning-fast connectivity
including dual Thunderbolt™ 5 ports, 10G and 2.5G Ethernet, and WiFi 7.
This motherboard manifests a professional, elegant and precise vision for content
creators of all kinds, with a style elevated by tone-on-tone layers of black infused
with metallic gold touches. A subtly designed I/O cover provides a sleek and
sophisticated look while concealing the premium connectors within.

Spec Overview

All You Need for Maximum Productivity
Get immersed in your creations with two Thunderbolt™ 5 and one Thunderbolt™ 4 ports for connecting to all your compatible content-creation gadgets, enjoying up to 80 Gbps of bi-directional bandwidth, and up to 120 Gbps with Bandwidth Boost. To further push your creative work with one 8K or two 4K color-accurate monitors, you can connect your discrete graphics card to the onboard DisplayPort™ In port on the rear I/O panel and direct the video output via the Thunderbolt™ 5 port*.

Performance
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 balances the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. A proprietary ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then it monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
Ultrafast Networking
Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for 2.5G internet streaming or uploading and 10G for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data organisation and security.
The revolutionary WiFi 7 is up to 4.8X faster than standard WiFi 6, thanks to technology like 320 MHz channels on the 6 GHz band and 4K QAM*. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming and industrial IoT.
Dual transceivers support the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands to enable faster throughput, with directional sensitivity to improve signal quality and cover greater distances.
**Specifications vary by model.


Both of the x16 expansion slots are PCIe 5.0, offering incredible speeds of up to 64 GB/s for compatible devices. To bear the brunt of massive graphics cards, they are also protected with SafeSlot retention brackets, and the top slot can be released easily via Q-Release Slim.

ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI features one PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot and four PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots to enjoy the fastest data transfers of up to 128 Gbps*, and all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest available speeds.

Designed to meet the needs of high-core-count CPUs, the ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI features 16(90A)+1(90A)+2(90A)+2(80A) power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated for up to 90 amps each.
Memory
The ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI enhances DDR5 performance by providing overclocking options that would otherwise be locked, whether you are dealing with high-speed or entry-level memory modules.

DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyses individual
memory modules to optimise performance and pinpoint potential issues. This offers
peak efficiency, compatibility and system stability.
Whether you are an overclocker seeking ultimate performance, a competitor pursuing
the most responsive gameplay or a content creator prioritising rock-solid
stability, DIMM Fit provides optimisations tailored to your needs and your
hardware configuration.

ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory. Through a two-phase comprehensive tuning process, AEMP III first optimises the clock driver and then the memory frequency. This results in the best balance between performance and stability, even at cutting-edge speeds of DDR5-8000 or higher.*
Trusted Stability
ProArt Z890-CREATOR WIFI is engineered and rigorously tested to offer superior quality, stability and compatibility to ensure that it empowers creativity for years to come.

Additional Features
With PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim, simply tilt the card toward the latching mechanism to automatically unlock it from the PCIe slot. This makes upgrades and maintenance easier than ever before. Users no longer need to fiddle with a tricky latch or even press a button to release their graphics card from the slot.
The new M.2 heatsink features a convenient switch to quickly remove it, eliminating the need for tiny screws during SSD installation. Its strong locking mechanism also provides a snug contact surface, helping to ensure reliable heat dissipation for your SSD.
A new sliding M.2 latch design supports sizes 2242, 2260 and 2280 for easy device installation.
With Q-Antenna, attaching a WiFi antenna to your PC is now easy and fast. Instead of slowly rotating two fasteners until they finally lock in, they just snap into place. Less hassle, and more consistent performance.
