Questions about this item

How can I confirm the ROG STRIX Z890-I GAMING WIFI and Ultra 7 265K are running correctly after assembly?

Enter the UEFI AMI BIOS and verify the CPU is detected as an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K with 30MB L3 and 36MB L2 cache, confirm DDR5 memory shows the expected MT/s speed up to 9200+ MT/s OC, and check that both M.2 slots and the PCIe 5.0 x16 slot report active devices.

What comes in the box and what must I purchase separately for this motherboard and CPU combo?

The bundle includes the ROG STRIX Z890-I GAMING WIFI motherboard and the Intel Core Ultra 7 265K processor only. You must buy DDR5 CUDIMM modules, a CPU cooler, M.2 SSDs, a power supply, a case, and an operating system separately.

Which DDR5 speed tier should I select for the 288-pin slots on this Z890 board?

The board supports DDR5 from 4400 up to 9200 MT/s when overclocked. Choose a kit rated for your target speed — such as 6000, 7200, or 8400 MT/s — and enable XMP in the BIOS to reach the advertised frequency.
