ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING for 9th/8th Gen Intel Core

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 provides four DDR4 slots with a maximum capacity of 64GB and dual-channel architecture. Integrated graphics output is available through HDMI and DisplayPort connectors.

Best for AI overclocking and RGB builds.

Builders who want automated tuning will benefit from 5-Way Optimization with AI overclocking and thermal telemetry. Fan Xpert 4 and UEFI BIOS give granular control over PWM and DC headers for air or liquid cooling. Aura Sync RGB lighting coordinates with compatible devices. This board is not backward compatible with older LGA 1151 CPUs, so buyers using previous-generation processors must look elsewhere.

Simple ATX install; watch M.2 bandwidth sharing

Standard ATX mounting fits most cases and the pre-mounted I/O shield speeds up the build. Two full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slots run at x16 or dual x8, while a third x16 slot operates at x4 mode. Three PCIe x1 slots add expansion room. Note that populating the M.2_1 socket with a SATA device disables SATA ports 5 and 6, and using a PCIe device there shares bandwidth with the PCIe x4 slot.

Questions about this item

What CPU and memory must I already have to use this LGA 1151 board?

You need an 8th or 9th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold or Celeron processor plus DDR4 modules up to 64 GB total across the four 288-pin slots.

Can I keep my existing SATA drives and PCIe 3.0 add-in cards with the Z390 chipset?

Yes, the board provides six SATA 6Gb/s ports, two PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and three PCIe 3.0 x1 slots for current drives and expansion cards.

How do I confirm the SupremeFX S1220A audio is active after assembly?

Open the audio control panel in Windows and verify that 8-channel output is selectable for the Realtek S1220A codec.
