Questions about ASUS Rog Maximus Z690 Formula

Indeed it's probably the best card I've had. Too bad they didn't make the equivalent in Z790

a ddr5-6400 would also work, by the way....here are more specs for the board....https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-maximus/rog-maximus-z690-formula-model/

Yes, if you already have the board, it's no problem. If not, you'd better get a z790 that also supports all the functions of the processor. I already had the board and upgraded to the 13900k and so far everything is running fine.

Yes I have ! The current bios is on it !

Yes this is the ROG MAXIMUS Z690 FORMULA Just use "report incorrect data" next time ;-) But i just did the report for this one.

I'll join the question directly :)

No, this is technically not possible. That's why the coding of the RAM bars (notch) is also different and you can't insert DDR4 into a DDR5 slot and vice versa. At the moment, DDR5 doesn't really offer that much more performance than DDR4, especially with the still very high price. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fv7FlIkNZc

I bought it for around 700 and I'm sure it was a mistake. Look here ASUS MB ROG MAXIMUS Z690 FORMULA (LGA 1700, Intel Z690 (DDR5), ATX)

Why buy a 750.- motherboard that is designed for WaKü and then not use one? The ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z690 HERO series are those with heat sinks/without cooling, cost a good deal less, but are currently only available in black at Digitec, and may also be available in white in the near future: ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z690 HERO (LGA 1700, Intel Z690 (DDR5), ATX)

Even if the processor draws 250w, the cooling should be completely sufficient. The cooling elements are very large and there is also a backplate. Even at 30+ minutes of full load, the cooling is probably good enough. Especially if there is still an airflow in the case. If, for example, an i9 12900k is running at full load (PL2 with 250W+), then the fans must rotate at least 80% even with a 240 or 360mm AiO, which is usually around 1000-1200rpm with "normal" fans. Even if you have a good AiO, the processor would probably overheat first, rather than the VRMs (voltage converters) on the mainboard. I know someone with a Crosshair VIII Formula and a R9 3950x, which also sometimes draws 250-300w (OC). Absolutely no problem. Can't guarantee anything, but I'd say it fits without any problems. I will also consider buying this motherboard. I haven't read anything on the Asus website or in the manual that a water cooling system is required... So I would say 95%: Safe to buy. Even with an overclocked i9 12900k.
