ASUS Malaysia reveals price list for the new range of Z890 motherboards

Withe the plethora of Z890 motherboards for the Intel Core Ultra 200S series processors, ASUS Malaysia has officially begun to accept preorders for all local residents.

Not sure about their future plans but for the time being, a total of 7 ROG models alongside 2 PRIME series and 1 TUF Gaming fills the preorder list. And as expected, they have brought in new AI techs to enable the easiest ways for the most casual users to achieve top tier performance through smart and dynamic settings.

For starters, the ASUS AI Advisor is available for all series and it is basically a virtual assistant powered by a LLM that understands natural language so you can ask about anything related to your motherboard and get some answers to help you understand more. Other than that, it can also work in tandem with AI Overclocking, AI Networking II, and AI Cooling II for more on-the-fly adjustments to provide the most efficient and powerful performance for each part of the system.

Here’s a quick checklist for those wondering about the availability of these AI features.

ASUS also crammed lots of new design and software optimizations to unleash the power of the Z890 platform fully and these include:

• NitroPath DRAM – Enhanced slot retention force, reduced noise interference, and optimized signal pathways for higher and more stable DRAM frequency [ROG MAXIMUS Z890 EXTREME/HERO + STRIX Z890-E GAMING WIFI]
• Clock Unbuffered DIMM (CUDIMM) Support – DRAM sticks with an integrated clock driver for higher reliability and stability at higher speeds
• AEMP II Profile – Easy memory performance optimization, allows the mixing of different brands and dies provided they have the same capacities
• ROG M.2 PowerBoost – Up to 7 M.2 slots for plentiful storage
• Thunderbolt 5 and WiFi 7 – Practically the fastest wired and wireless connection for transferring files and staying connected
• Even easier DIY building – New PCIe Slot Q-Release slim mechanism releases GPU with no buttons or latch presses needed, M.2 Q-Slide manages different drive lengths with ease, MyHotKey now can toggle EZ Flash or manually select a boot device, and more
