Clock Speeds

We wouldn’t expect a motherboard that forms part of the famous ASUS Republic of Gamers Maximus range to be anything other than fantastic out of the box, and the Z790 Dark Hero ticks all the boxes. Consistent power delivery, easy to undervolt and with enough headroom for those of you who demand maximum performance, it’s a great platform upon which to build.
