ROG MAXIMUS Z690 FORMULA for LGA 1700

The ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z690 FORMULA is an ATX motherboard built around the Intel Z690 chipset for LGA 1700 processors. It targets enthusiasts who want a high-end platform with DDR5 memory support and the ROG feature set.

DDR5 memory interface and 128 GB limit

The board uses the DDR5 standard and accepts up to 128 GB of memory across its slots. This ceiling is set by the chipset and board design, so larger kits cannot be used even if they become available later.

128 GB capacity for heavy workloads

A full 128 GB configuration gives ample headroom for content creation, virtualization and large datasets. Typical gaming or office builds will rarely approach this limit, leaving unused capacity in lighter scenarios.
