Z690 ATX board for LGA 1700 CPUs

The ASUS PRIME Z690-A is an ATX motherboard built on the Intel Z690 chipset and fitted with an LGA 1700 socket. It accepts DDR5 memory up to 192GB, giving workstation and enthusiast builders a high-capacity platform for demanding workloads.

Suits DDR5 builds needing 192GB maximum

Builders who want DDR5 memory and the Z690 feature set will find the specification a match. Buyers who need a smaller form factor or a different chipset should look elsewhere, as this board is full-size ATX and tied to the Z690 platform.

192GB DDR5 ceiling decides fit

The single figure that determines suitability is the 192GB maximum memory capacity. If the intended workload requires more RAM than this limit, the board cannot meet the requirement and another solution must be chosen.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum DDR5 memory capacity the PRIME Z690-A can address?

The board supports up to 192 GB of DDR5 memory, so the memory controller will reach its capacity limit before any other onboard restriction under sustained heavy workloads.

How much power does the motherboard itself draw during continuous operation?

The motherboard draws only a small fraction of total system power for its own VRM and chipset logic; the CPU and graphics card dominate heat and noise once the system runs all day.

Which storage cable is included so I can connect a SATA drive immediately?

One SATA cable ships in the box, letting you attach a 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SATA SSD or hard drive without buying anything extra.
