ROG Maximus Z690 Hero

The ROG Maximus Z690 Hero is a quintessential strand of the Republic of Gamers DNA, replete with high-octane components to satisfy users who seek an introduction to the enthusiast-grade Maximus line.

Its arsenal of cooling, power delivery, and connectivity stands ready to handle whatever the latest 12th Gen Intel Core processors throw at it.

And with its new animated Polymo lighting display on the I/O cover that dazzles with vibrant RGB logos and patterns, the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z690 HERO Intel LGA 1700 ATX Motherboard DDR5 PCIe 5.0 has the looks to match its leverage.

INTELLIGENT MOTHERBOARD

Intelligent software solutions help ensure that your system performs at its best.

The latest ASUS AI-powered enhancements span four pillars of performance, including overclocking, cooling, networking, and onboard audio, making advanced tweaks and optimization accessible to new recruits and savvy PC DIY veterans alike.

Performance

With tailored power delivery and support for the latest high-performance memory, the ROG Maximus Z690 Hero easily handles the demands of Intel Alder Lake-S processors.

It has a smart VRM design that can handle up to 90 amps, as well as carefully chosen components and a memory layout that is optimized for gamers who want to build a battle-ready rig with balanced performance.

Cooling

Top-level PC performance demands exceptional cooling

The ROG Maximus Z690 Hero has heatsinks for the VRM and chipset that are strong and have the right amount of mass and surface area to get rid of heat.

Load up with an AIO or custom cooling loop paired with your choice of fans to keep thermals under complete control.

Connectivity

The most recent connectivity solutions, WiFi 6E, PCIe 5.0, and two Thunderbolt 4 USB Type-C ports, enable supersmooth networking and lightning-fast file transfers.

And for enthusiasts looking for high-fidelity audio, the SupremeFX ALC4082 codec takes gaming immersion to a whole new level while also saving a PCIe slot.

OPTIMIZATION

ROG Maximus Z690 Hero is full of easy-to-use and flexible tools that give builders a whole new level of control over how well their systems work.

PERSONALIZACION

In addition to elite performance, the ROG Maximus Z690 Hero introduces the new Polymo Lighting display, gracing the I/O cover with an eye-catching microstructural array of light and color.

This intricate design features two RGB patterns, empowering builders to show off a luminous RGB style that they won’t see anywhere else.
