Ready for AI workloads

The bundle pairs an ASUS PRIME Z890-P motherboard with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K processor. The LGA 1851 socket and Z890 chipset support second-generation Core Ultra CPUs. An on-die NPU adds up to 24 percent AI performance. DDR5 memory runs at full speed through AEMP 3.0.

Power delivery and storage headroom

Fourteen 80A modules plus three additional 80A phases feed the 125W CPU. Six-layer PCB construction and Digi+ VRM control keep voltage stable. Four M.2 slots accept fast drives while a PCIe 5.0 slot handles next-gen graphics cards.

Thermal layout and daily connectivity

VRM heatsinks, thermal pads and a dedicated M.2 heatsink dissipate heat. An integrated water-pump header and Fan Xpert 4 software manage liquid or air cooling. Rear I/O includes USB 20Gbps Type-C with DP Alt Mode, 2.5 Gb Ethernet, plus USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. Pre-mounted I/O shield eases installation.

Questions about this item

Will the bundled Core Ultra 7 265K processor fit the board without a separate purchase?

Yes, the motherboard uses the LGA 1851 socket and the included Core Ultra 7 265K is built for that socket, so they are a matched pair.

What memory type and speed support should I expect with the AEMP 3.0 feature?

The board supports DDR5 and AEMP 3.0 is designed to unlock higher DDR5 speeds automatically, so you can install DDR5 modules and let the firmware optimise timings.

Do I need to buy a cooler for the 125 W processor?

The processor is sold without a cooling device, so you must provide a compatible LGA 1851 cooler rated for at least 125 W TDP.
