Enhanced VRM DesignThe Z390 AORUS ELITE uses a 12*+1 phases digital CPU power design and has additional 8+4 Solid-pin CPU Power Connectors that allows enthusiasts to get the absolute maximum performance from the new 9th Gen Intel Core processors. |
RGB FusionThe onboard Digital LED's shine beautifully against the Z390 motherboard's monochrome pallet. Paint your system with bold colors with full RGB support and a redesigned RGB Fusion application, which gives the user complete control over the LEDs which surround the motherboard. |
Smart Fan 5With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their gaming PC can maintain its performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard and gives users up-to-the-second details on flow rate and temperatures. |
