Reliable, full-sized, well-equipped motherboard from the 2022 Asus The Ultimate Force family. It stands out against the background of its brothers due to the use of the advanced flagship Intel Z790 chipset, a 17-phase power system and a PCI-E 5.0 data bus. The board is equipped with an Intel LGA 1700 socket and is designed to install Intel 12th and 13th generation APUs (Alder Lake and Raptor Lake).
Included in the upper price segment, aimed at gamers, streamers and overclocking enthusiasts who find the capabilities of Asus Prime motherboards insufficient, but do not plan to overpay for top models from the ROG STRIX and ROG MAXIMUS series. Unlike flagship overclocking models designed for DDR5 memory, Asus TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI D4 works with more affordable DDR4 RAM (4x32 GB, 5333 MHz, XMP support).
The fifth version of the PCI-E system interface gives a serious boost to the system when working with high-speed M.2 SSDs, significantly reducing the time it takes to load textures into local video memory. Overall, the board layout includes four slots, 4 M.2 ports, and 4 SATA3 slots for more traditional storage. Considering that it belongs to the gaming segment, the board is equipped with a lot of additional connectors for connecting RGB/ARGB tapes and water pumps.
Additional equipment of the device includes a 2.5-gigabit network controller, a built-in wireless module (Wi-Fi 6E + Bluetooth v 5.2) and front and rear USB-C ports supporting the 3.2 gen2x2 standard. All in all, the advanced specs of this model will give you a free hand when building a powerful gaming/work PC with a 16-core processor, 128 GB of RAM, an RTX 3080 caliber graphics card, and several fast SSDs.
Between middle and top class
The Asus TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI D4 straddles the line between basic and premium, offering balanced features for those looking for reliability and performance without the frills. Although it lacks DDR5 and some high-end features, this board is worth a look thanks to its smart power design and advanced storage and communication capabilities.
Slightly simplified capabilities of the Z790 chip
The Asus TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI D4 compensates for the lack of DDR5 support with a powerful 17-phase power system and extensive capabilities for connecting modern storage and peripherals. Access to fast DDR4-5333 memory, a PCI-E 5.0 slot, and plenty of M.2 ports make this board attractive for building a balanced system.
Industrial grade quality
The Asus TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI D4 is not only reliable, but also ready for intensive use thanks to advanced cooling solutions and support for the latest technologies. It combines the best practices of the ROG and ROG STRIX series, offering a practical and durable product for those who value stability and performance.
