Socket & Chipset

This ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WI-FI) motherboard is built around the Intel Z390 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket, delivering an ATX foundation for high-performance desktop systems. It supports DDR4 memory up to a maximum of 64GB, giving enthusiasts ample headroom for demanding workloads and gaming. The board arrives new and includes a chassis I/O back panel plus one SATA cable.

Ideal Builder Profile

This board suits builders assembling a fresh system around a compatible LGA 1151 processor who want the Z390 feature set and a full-size ATX layout. It is not for buyers who need a smaller form factor such as micro-ATX or mini-ITX, nor for those whose CPU requires a different socket type. The single included SATA cable also means anyone planning multiple drive connections should source extra cables separately.

Deciding Specification

The LGA 1151 socket paired with the Intel Z390 chipset is the single specification that determines whether this motherboard fits your build; the processor must be designed for that exact socket and chipset combination. Maximum memory capacity is capped at 64GB of DDR4, so any plan requiring more memory will need a different platform.

Questions about this item

What CPU socket does the ATX board use for installation?

The board uses an LGA 1151 socket, so the processor must match that exact socket type for physical fit and electrical contact.

Which step is often missed when fitting the motherboard into the case?

Builders sometimes forget to install the supplied I/O back panel into the chassis cut-out before lowering the board onto the standoffs.

What replacement part is included because the original battery may be depleted?

A metal replacement battery is supplied in the package so the CMOS settings can be maintained after the original cell wears out.
