Q: Can the motherboard support Intel Core Ultra 9 Series processors?

A: This motherboard offers support for Intel Core Ultra 9 Series processors.

Q: How many power stages does the motherboard have?

A: This motherboard has 22+2+1+2 power stages.

Q: Are there any USB Type-C connectors on the motherboard?

A: This motherboard has a USB 20Gbps Type-C® front-panel connector with Quick Charge 4+ up to 60W and a USB 10Gbps Type-C® front-panel connector.

Q: What is the maximum memory supported by the motherboard?

A: The maximum memory supported by the motherboard is 192 gigabytes.

Q: Does the motherboard support RAID 0?

A: This motherboard supports RAID 0.

Q: I have read about users having problems using a Gen 5 Samsung 9100 Pro SSD in the dedicated M2 slot near the CPU. Is this a common issue, and will I still be able to maximize my RTX5800 Graphics card while using the full bandwidth of the SSD?

A: NO. The M.2_1 slot (the one near the CPU) on the Maximus Hero does NOT share CPU lanes with the primary GPU slot. Your RTX 5800 will run at full PCIe 5.0 x16 and the Gen 5 SSD will run at full PCIe 5.0 x4. You will not lose any GPU performance.

Q: Does it have integrated graphics support? HDMI? Display Port?

A: The ASUS ROG Maximus Z890 Hero supports integrated graphics, provided it is paired with an Intel processor that includes an integrated GPU. The motherboard features an HDMI 2.1 port and DisplayPort output via Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C), both of which utilize the processor’s integrated graphics for video output. https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-maximus/rog-maximus-z890-hero/spec/
