ROG STRIX Z790-A GAMING WIFI
Well-versed in style, performance, cooling, and connectivity, the DDR5 variant of the ROG Strix Z790-A exudes the same balance as its D4 brethren, but after taking a master class in memory. A robust VRM topped with stout silver heatsinks comfortably articulates power for the latest Intel® 14th Gen Core processors, while PCIe 5.0, WiFi 6E, and high-speed USB flesh out the board's fluency across a variety of disciplines. And a vast collection of tuning options and utilities derived from its ROG heritage are the icing

DIY-FRIENDLY FEATURES
PCIE® SLOT Q-RELEASE
A physical button unlocks the first PCIe slot’s security latch with one press, greatly simplifying the process of detaching a PCIe card from the motherboard when it’s time to upgrade to a new GPU or other compatible device.
M.2 Q-LATCH
The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an SSD from an M.2 slot. The design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive, eliminating the need for a traditional screw.
CLEAR CMOS
The Clear CMOS button quickly resets BIOS settings to factory default. It can also be used to reboot the PC if incorrect BIOS settings have been selected.
BIOS FlashBack™
BIOS FlashBack™ is a safe and simple way to update BIOS. Just drop the (UEFI) BIOS file onto a FAT32-formatted USB stick, plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack port, and press the button. Updates can even be performed without having memory or a CPU installed.
Q-LED
Four onboard LEDs indicate power status and identify problems with CPU, memory, graphics card, or boot device for quick diagnosis.

ASUS products are always a guarantee when it comes to giving your workstation personality. The ROG Hyperion is a case with a peculiar and futuristic design. For the setup we used the ASUS ROG Strix Z790 Gaming WiFi 2 motherboard, one of the new motherboards that supports the new WiFi 7 connection standard, with an antenna that takes advantage of clip-on hooks that are much more convenient than screw-on ones.
Thanks to all this ASUS product: ROG RYUJIN III 360 ARGB WHITE, ROG STRIX Z790-A GAMING WIFI, TUF GAMING 850W GOLD, PA147CDV, TUF GAMING TF120 ARGB FAN - SINGLE PACK WHITE, TUF GAMING,TF120 ARGB FAN X 1 KIT 3IN1 WHITE, TUF GAMING TF120 ARGB FAN X 1 KIT 3IN1 WHITE, ProArt PA279CRV, I was able to renew my gaming setup!
