Z690 ATX Board for 12th and 13th Gen Intel CPUs

The ASUS TUF Gaming Z690-PLUS D4 is a full-size ATX motherboard built around the Intel Z690 chipset and LGA 1700 socket. It supports 12th and 13th Generation Intel Core processors with a 14+1 DrMOS power stage design, six-layer PCB and ProCool socket for stable delivery. Four DDR4 DIMM slots accept up to 128 GB of memory with a wide range of overclocked speeds.

Suits builders keeping DDR4 kits

This board fits users moving to a newer Intel platform while retaining existing DDR4 modules. It provides four M.2 sockets with PCIe 4.0 support, 2.5 Gb Ethernet, front-panel USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C and Thunderbolt 4 readiness. Builders who need a smaller micro-ATX or mini-ITX form factor should look elsewhere, as this model uses a full-size ATX layout.

Four M.2 slots with PCIe 4.0 connectivity

The standout storage spec is the quartet of M.2 sockets, each wired for PCIe 4.0 speeds. That density lets you populate multiple high-throughput drives without sacrificing GPU bandwidth or adding adapter cards.

Questions about this item

How do I install the CPU into the LGA 1700 socket without bending pins?

Lift the retention lever, align the processor notches with the socket keys, set the CPU in place without pressure, then lower and lock the lever. The step people miss is skipping the alignment check before locking.

Which component will need replacement first under heavy VRM loads?

The 14+1 DrMOS power stages and alloy inductors are soldered; the long-lasting capacitors on the 6-layer PCB are the only serviceable parts and would be replaced if they ever degrade.

At what sustained memory speed does the DDR4 OC ceiling appear?

The board validates DDR4 up to 5333 (OC) with supported modules; beyond that frequency the memory controller becomes the limiting factor.
