ASUS TUF Z390-Plus Gaming (Wi-Fi) LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z390 HDMI SATA 6Gbs USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard

Designed for 9th Generation Intel? Core? processors, the TUF Z390-Plus Gaming Wi-Fi is designed for 24/7 performance. Unlock your systems full potential with ASUS TUF Protection featuring SafeSlot and Fan Xpert 4 while personalizing your build with Aura Sync lighting. Integrated dual M.2, Gigabit LAN and USB 3.1 deliver maximum connectivity speeds. TUF Gaming Alliance is a collaboration between ASUS and trusted PC-component brands to ensure compatibility with a wide range of parts, such as PC cases, power supplies, CPU coolers, memory kits and more. With more partnerships and components being added regularly, the TUF Gaming Alliance will continue to grow even stronger. SafeSlot is the PCIe slot reinvented by ASUS and engineered to provide superior retention and shearing resistance. Manufactured in a single step using a new insert-molding process, SafeSlot integrates fortifying metal for an inherently stronger slot, which is then firmly anchored to the PCB through additional solder points. Certified military-grade TUF Chokes deliver rock-steady power to the CPU, helping to improve system stability. TUF Capacitors offer +20% temperature tolerance and 5X-longer lifespan. Certified military-grade MOSFETs with lower RDS(on). TUF LANGuard is a military-grade innovation that integrates advanced signal-coupling technology and premium surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput, protecting the motherboard from lightning strikes and static electricity. TUF Gaming motherboards include Fan Xpert 4 software that's able to intelligently control system fans based upon the input of multiple sensors, including the temperature of ASUS graphics cards. This ensures that your TUF Gaming system stays perfectly cooled, no matter how long you play. The TUF Z390-PLUS GAMING (WI-FI) features the most comprehensive fan controls ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 and our award-winning UEFI BIOS. To provide Intel's latest processors' unfettered access to memory bandwidth, we've reimagined motherboard trace routing from the ground up. Our OptiMem II tech carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and also adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk. And to further enhance overclocking headroom for fully stacked memory configurations, we've employed a highly customized T-Topology layout that delivers time-aligned signaling. A well-tuned system deserves a matching aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of functional presets for the built-in RGB LEDs as well as strips connected to the onboard RGB headers. And it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-capable hardware.
