ROG STRIX Z690-I GAMING WIFI

The ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming WiFi packs premium-grade power delivery and triple-decker cooling into a compact mini-ITX form factor to unleash the full force of 12^th Gen Intel^® Core™ processors. Framerates and load times can be boosted even further by all-new support for DDR5 memory and PCIe^® 5.0. Plus, onboard WiFi 6E and PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots bring lightning-fast performance to an endless variety of scenarios. On top of all that, DIY-friendly innovations help simplify the PC building process, so even novice builders can quickly get to serious gaming.

ROG Front Panel SATA Card

The ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming WiFi comes with an expansion card that provides additional functionality including four SATA ports, one ARGB lighting header, and connectors for a front panel header and a PC speaker. This efficient use of space enables builders to construct some of the most compact PC builds with full feature, or could also connect the power button via the 2-pin Power_BTN onboard for even more compact builds.

UNDENIABLY ROG STRIX

The ROG Strix Z690-I Gaming WiFi design language is defined by futuristic grids and meshes that may seem low-key at first, until users gaze upon the lower left-hand corner that glows with an iridescent grid pattern.
