PerformanceOVERCLOCKING

  • NPU BOOST

    The integrated NPU in Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows — and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%.

    * The overclocking performance may vary depending on the CPU series and motherboard used.

    ** Testing was conducted with an Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 285K processor, ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme motherboard, GeForce RTX™ 4090 24GB graphics card, and XPG Lancer DDR5 memory modules (model AX5U6000C4016G).

    NPU Boost UI
  • DIFFERENTIAL SENSING

    Conventional motherboards use single-ended sensing tapped from a location that isn’t ideal, leading to a large disparity between the actual voltage fed to the CPU and the value reported to software. The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features a differential-sensing circuit and delicate IC that simplify overclocking and tuning by allowing you to track voltages more accurately.

PerformanceMEMORY

  • DDR5 DOMINATION

    Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits can be driven far beyond the 9 GT/s mark on the ROG Maximus Z890 Hero*.

    *Memory overclocking may vary between CPU series. Please refer to the spec table for detailed information.

    The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero lets you overclock memory up to 8800+ MT/s.

  • NitroPath DRAM Technology

    Frequency up to 400 MT/s higher

    Slot retention force enhanced by 57%

    The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero supports NitroPath DRAM Technology

  • DIMM FIT

    DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyzes individual memory modules to optimize performance and pinpoint potential issues.

    The ROG Maximus Z890 Hero features DIMM Fit

  • DIMM FLEX

    DIMM Flex employs specialized circuitry that can boost performance or address potential stability issues, depending on temperature readings.

    * Results may vary according to the capabilities of your CPU, graphics card, motherboard, and memory modules.
    ** The comparison chart is based on a test with an Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 245K processor, ROG MAXIMUS Z890 EXTREME motherboard, ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4090 OC Edition 24GB graphics card, and G.SKILL DDR5 memory modules (model F5-8800C4255H24GX2-TZ5CK).

  • AEMP III

    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.
