ASUS Z790-AYW OC WIFI Motherboard

The ASUS Z790-AYW OC WIFI is an ATX motherboard built for Intel processors using the LGA 1700 socket. It runs on the Intel Z790 chipset and supports DDR5 memory up to 192GB. The board is supplied new with a metal battery and one SATA cable included in the package.

Buyers seeking a standard ATX board

This board suits builders who need an LGA 1700 platform with high DDR5 capacity and the Z790 feature set. Buyers who require the original retail packaging or a full accessory bundle should look elsewhere because only the motherboard, back panel and one SATA cable are provided. Users needing a different CPU socket or chipset must choose another product.

Maximum DDR5 capacity of 192GB

The 192GB memory ceiling is the key figure that determines whether this board fits a build. Workstations or high-end desktops planned around large DDR5 configurations can use this limit as a baseline. Systems that will run with less memory or that require a different maximum capacity should verify their needs against this specification.

Questions about this item

What case and power connectors does the ATX board require to fit and mount?

The board uses the standard ATX mounting pattern and needs a 24-pin ATX power connector plus the CPU EPS connector to sit in a compatible chassis.

Which memory slots should be populated first when installing DDR5 modules?

Install modules in the primary slots indicated in the manual — usually the two slots furthest from the CPU socket — to ensure the board trains at the rated speed.

What does the included metal battery do and when might it need attention?

The supplied metal battery maintains BIOS settings and the real-time clock; if the system loses time or settings after power-off, the battery should be replaced.
