The ASRock Z890 Lightning WiFi motherboard is an ATX board built on Intel's flagship Z890 chipset and LGA1851 socket, designed for Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors including overclockable K models. It brings an 18-phase core power design, DDR5 up to 9466+ MHz, Wi-Fi 7 and two Thunderbolt 4 ports, making it a strong choice for high-performance gaming builds.
The board uses the standard ATX size (30.5 × 24.4 cm) with a 2oz copper PCB, enlarged heatsink armor over the power stages and 20K 1000µF capacitors. It offers one 12V RGB header and three 5V ARGB headers, plus two CPU fan headers, five chassis fan headers and an AIO pump header.
The rear panel has two 40Gb/s Thunderbolt 4/USB4 Type-C ports with up to 8K 60Hz display output, two USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, four USB 3.2 Gen1 and two USB 2.0 ports, and HDMI 2.1 with 4K 120Hz support. Front-panel headers include USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen1 and USB 2.0, plus an SPI TPM header.
The Z890 chipset allows overclocking of K-series CPUs and memory and provides more expansion lanes. Wi-Fi 7 is the newest wireless standard, with higher speeds and lower latency than Wi-Fi 6E. SPS smart power stages monitor current and temperature to feed the CPU steadily under load.
It suits gamers and enthusiasts running an Intel Core Ultra 7 or 9 K-series CPU who want overclocking or very fast DDR5, along with Wi-Fi 7 and two Thunderbolt 4 ports.
