ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming for 9th

This ATX motherboard uses the Intel Z390 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket to support 9th and 8th Generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron processors. It is aimed at enthusiasts who want a feature-rich platform for gaming and content creation. Onboard Intel HD Graphics are driven through HDMI and DisplayPort outputs.

64GB DDR4 capacity with dual-channel headroom

Four 288-pin slots accept DDR4 modules up to a listed 4266 MT/s when overclocked, with native support down to 2133 MT/s. The 64GB maximum gives ample room for heavy multitasking and large project files. Dual-channel architecture keeps bandwidth high for memory-sensitive workloads. Six SATA 6Gb/s ports and two M.2 sockets provide plenty of storage lanes.

Premium audio and Intel networking for daily

The ROG SupremeFX S1220A codec delivers eight-channel high-definition sound with shielding for cleaner output. An Intel I219-V LAN controller handles wired networking with low CPU overhead. Reinforced PCIe slots and a pre-mounted I/O shield simplify assembly and protect ports during frequent upgrades. Aura Sync RGB headers allow coordinated lighting.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR4-2133 memory work with the Strix Z390-E Gaming's four 288-pin slots?

Yes, the board supports DDR4 from 2133 up to 4266(O.C.) across all four slots, with a maximum capacity of 64GB in dual-channel mode.

How can I verify the SupremeFX S1220A audio is running at 8 channels after installation?

Open Windows Sound control panel, select the Realtek device, choose Configure, pick 7.1 Surround and run the speaker test; all eight channels should play distinct tones.

Which cables and drives are included in the box versus what I must purchase separately?

The motherboard ships with SATA 6Gb/s cables, an I/O shield, M.2 screws and documentation; you still need to buy the LGA 1151 CPU, DDR4 modules, storage drives and a graphics card if your processor lacks integrated graphics.
