ASUS PRIME Z890-P WIFI Z890 LGA1851 ATX Motherboard Wi-Fi 7
The ASUS PRIME Z890-P WIFI is a full-size motherboard built for Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) that combines robust power delivery with comprehensive cooling and Wi-Fi 7 connectivity. It suits DIY PC builders and overclockers who need stable power for high-core-count CPUs and demand modern networking for AI-ready workloads.
Why this product
Wi-Fi 7 and Thunderbolt 4 connectivity
It includes Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) with support for 160MHz bandwidth up to 2.9Gbps, plus Thunderbolt 4 on both rear panel and header for external expansion.
Four M.2 slots with PCIe 5.0 support
One slot runs PCIe 5.0 x4 (128Gbps) for NVMe storage; three additional slots support PCIe 4.0 x4 (64Gbps), enabling fast boot and app loading.
Heavy-duty power stages for high-core CPUs
The 14(80A) + 1(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power stage design with enlarged VRM heatsinks delivers stable power to demanding processors.
Six-layer PCB with enhanced cooling
Multiple onboard heatsinks and hybrid fan headers (supporting both PWM and DC) plus dedicated water-cooling header keep thermals in check during intense workloads.

- Form FactorATX
- Memory Slots4 × DIMM (up to 256GB DDR5)
- M.2 Slots4 (one PCIe 5.0, three PCIe 4.0)
- WirelessWi-Fi 7 (802.11be)
- SKUASU-2663
- EAN4711387754818
- Supports Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) with LGA1851 socket; Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 and 3.0 compatible.
- Accepts DDR5 memory up to 8666+MT/s (OC) in four DIMM slots, supporting CUDIMM, XMP, and ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III.
- Features DisplayPort, HDMI, and Thunderbolt 4 video outputs for multi-display setups.
- Wi-Fi 7 requires a Wi-Fi 7–capable client device to achieve maximum 2.9Gbps speeds; legacy Wi-Fi 5 devices will work but at reduced speeds.
- Does not support older Intel or AMD processors; LGA1851 socket is exclusive to Intel Core Ultra Series 2.
Best for
- High-core-count CPU builds where stable power delivery matters
- Overclockers and enthusiasts seeking overclocking headroom from the six-layer PCB and enlarged heatsinks
- AI-ready workstations and content creators needing PCIe 5.0 NVMe and Thunderbolt 4 bandwidth
- Builders prioritizing wireless and wired networking with Wi-Fi 7 and 2.5Gb Ethernet
Trade-offs
- Budget builders: ATX form factor and extensive power delivery add cost compared to smaller boards.
- Users building around older Intel or any AMD platform; this board is LGA1851 only.
- Compact or small-form-factor builds; ATX size (12 × 9.6 inches) requires a full-size case.
- Setups needing built-in graphics output beyond video ports; it relies on iGPU from the CPU.
Stable power is crucial for maximizing the performance of Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2). The PRIME Z890-P WIFI is designed to meet the needs of high-core-count CPUs. It features 14(80A) + 1(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated for up to 80 amperes each.
Six-layer PCB designEnhanced stability and overclocking. The multi-layered printed circuit board design quickly dissipates heat around the voltage regulators to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.
Enhanced Memory & Storage Performance — AEMP III for Ultimate DDR5 PerformanceThe PRIME Z890-P WIFI offers a total of four M.2 slots, including one that supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128Gbps via PCIe 5.0, three that support 64Gbps via PCIe 4.0. This enables quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.
Cooling — Cooler by designThe PRIME Z890-P WIFI motherboard is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to help ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads. The massive VRM heatsinks and essential thermal pads improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance. Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans. A dedicated PWM/DC header supports self-contained water-cooling setups.
Flexibility — Empowering connectionsThe PRIME Z890-P WIFI motherboard offers a versatile range of connectivity, including support for WiFi 7, the latest version of PCI Express, while an arsenal of USB ports includes Type-C connections, and Thunderbolt™ 4 which expands compatibility and bandwidth even further.
