Overview

Designed for 9th generation Intel Core processors, the Prime Z390-A delivers maximum performance with customizable style. 5-Way Optimization provides AI overclocking and dynamic fan calibration while dual M.2 and USB 3.1 Gen2 delivers maximum transfer speeds. Aura Sync RGB with addressable headers customize your build.

5-Way Optimization

The overclocking module of AI Suite's 5-Way Optimization has been revamped for the Z390 platform. With a revised back-end that has the intelligence to overclock a CPU based upon smart prediction and thermal telemetry, this new version quickly delivers overclocking results that would typically take days of manual tuning.

Ultrafast Connectivity

With x4 PCI Express 3.0/2.0 bandwidth, M.2 supports up to 32Gbps data-transfer speeds. It's the perfect choice for an operating system or application drive, providing fast access to data. Also, with backward compatible USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-A and reversible USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C ports, you'll experience ultimate connection flexability and blazing data-transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps.

Optimem ll

Our OptiMem II tech carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and also adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk. And to further enhance overclocking headroom for fully stacked memory configurations, we've employed a highly customized T-Topology layout that delivers time-aligned signaling.

Cooler by Design

Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors, and via Fan Xpert 4 you can even map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU and CPU-intensive tasks.

Upgrade to unrivaled audio

Prime Z390-A utilizes a unique audio codec designed in close collaboration with Realtek — the Realtek S1220A. It also features an unprecedented 120dB signal-to-noise ratio for the stereo line-out and a 113dB SNR for the line-in, providing pristine audio quality. Additionally, a new impedance-sensing circuit automatically adjusts gain to ensure the optimal volume range for your headphones.

Visual Beauty

A well-tuned enthusiast system deserves a matching aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of functional presets for the built-in RGB LEDs as well as strips connected to the onboard RGB headers.* And it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-capable ASUS hardware.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do i have to use wifi or can i hardwire my internet
Answer:	Yes it will. Im using a 9th Gen i9-9900k and i didnt have to update the bios for it to work out of box.
Question:	Will this support 9th gen out of box or will it require a bios update
Answer:	It comes with antennas
Question:	Does it come with WiFi 6 antennas or do I buy it separately
Answer:	Im a System builder and tuner i have 12 years of experience i do workstations, gaming rigs and servers... Yes it will. I dont think build are your thing yet. I would recomend you buy a rig someone built thats selling to upgrade off letgo if I were you, and then watch youtube videos on how to upgrade and how each component works with in the sytem. Start doing small upgrades (ram, HDD to SSD, maybe optane memory to increase the speed of your HDDand get familiar with computer systems before you drop a good amoutof money down because you can fry your whole system before you even power it on. Look at esd straps. If the computer has USB-A ports and you have an USB-A cable, device or dongle then it will work. Something like a mouse or keyboard doesn't matter its when you start using devices that require certain specs to run will be the only factor on if it will work. You can plug a USB-A device in but if the device requires you to have software that requires certain specs such as 15 GB ram and a strong processor chances are it won't work or run like its supposed to. Unless your up to spec.
Question:	can you plug ur keyboard and mouse via usb
Answer:	The router bits are 1/4" shank which is roughly 6.35mm.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can we still use the same motherboard as we used for the 8th gen core i series
Answer:	I almost settled a bunch of times. But I locked in the lower price they had over the weekend and now I can’t justify getting the 8700k and not this one for 20 dollars. So I’m stuck waiting. But man it’s killing me. My rig is done except for the cpu.
Question:	When will it be in stock? Anyone else about to settle for the 8700k? (Gaming rig
Answer:	Someday they'll have stock... Maybe 2030 when i12 arrives. Not seriously, unless you work or play hard, you won't need another couple for at least 4 years
Question:	Does anyone know if by the time this cpu arrives, if it will be outdated and I'll have to buy a different one
Answer:	It runs notepad at 30fps max, you need to download st least 32 g or ddr1 ram

Product description

Audio+

Provides high quality sound with minimal loss of audio fidelity.

Video+

DVI is better than VGA for LCD displays since it is digital while VGA is analog. For LCD displays, the picture is digitized pixel per pixel. Through DVI, the panel gets data for each pixel, so the picture generated in the Graphics device matches the pixels on the panel itself.

DirectX 12 introduces the next version of Direct3D, the graphics API at the heart of DirectX. Direct3D is one of the most critical pieces of a game or game engine, and we've redesigned it to be faster and more efficient than ever before. Direct3D 12 enables richer scenes, more objects, and full utilization of modern GPU hardware.

Speed+

Experience Fastest data transfers at 5 Gbps with USB 3.0--the new latest connectivity standard. Built to connect easily with next-generation components and peripherals, USB 3.0 transfers data 10X faster and backward compatible with previous USB 2.0 components.

Moistureproof PCB

The popularity of PC usage and working environment is getting deteriorating and moist(rural, coastal, etc.). The PCB will be oxidizing easily by damp or absorbed moisture, and ionic migration or CAF (Conductive Anodic Filament) will be generated. Moisture-proof PCB meets high density and high reliability requirements for moisture proof.

Super Anti-Surge Protection

BIOSTAR exclusive Anti-Surge design provides the best protection of board and extends the product life. Having the latest model of "Transient Voltage Suppressor" on- board can effectively protect the board circuit, reducing the shocks caused by ESD as well as other damages arising from overvoltage transients to enhance system durability.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a version 1 or version 2 board
Answer:	I can personally confirm that 8 nvidia gpu's will work with any board that has enough slots including m.2's in Linux, (I hear there are issues going over 6 in windows) without any configuration besides a few settings and update in the bios. I have seen people go up to 11 nvidia GPUs in a linux environment so I believe 12 may be possible, but can't confirm. AMD drivers have a hardcoded limitation it seems however, so as the seller said, you will not be able to utilize all slots. My experience is it isn't worth the trouble with heat and power restrictions to go over 6 anyway and OC'ing Pascal cards in Linux is extremely annoying.
Question:	Will its only work with 6 ati 6 nvidia? or can i set up 12 nvidia
Answer:	Supports 6 AMD and 6 Nvidia GPU's Intel B250 Core i7 / i5 / i3 / Pentium / Celeron (LGA1151) DDR4 2400/ 2133/ 1866 * DDR4 2400 for 7th Generation Intel Core Processor Family
Question:	Will this notherboarf support core i5-2500 quad-core processor 3.3 ghz 6 mb cache lga
Answer:	If you are using Windows, you can use only 8 Nvidia or 6 AMD. If you are using Linux, you can run all 12 AMD or all 12 Nvidia. I have all 12 slots populated with Nvidia cards with this board on my Linux builds. Works great.
Question:	can i use only 8 amd? or i need to use 12 complete
