| Revew | Motherboard ASRock Z890 Pro RS WiFiThe ASRock Z890 Pro RS WiFi is an ATX motherboard from the Pro series for socket LGA1851 and Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) processors. It is built on the Intel Z890 chipset with a 16+1+1+1+1 phase Dr.MOS power design and a 2oz copper PCB, and takes four DDR5 modules up to 256GB at up to 9066+ MHz (OC). The board offers a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, four M.2 slots (one of them PCIe Gen5x4), two rear 40Gb/s Thunderbolt 4 ports, 2.5G LAN and Wi-Fi 6E with Bluetooth 5.3. It suits a powerful gaming or work PC with plenty of room for expansion. 
Key features- 16+1+1+1+1 power design - Dr.MOS power stages and a 2oz copper PCB keep power delivery stable even for top Core Ultra processors, fed by two 8-pin CPU power connectors.
- DDR5 up to 9066+ MHz - Four dual-channel DDR5 slots, up to 256GB of memory, with Intel XMP 3.0 profiles for one-click memory speed.
- PCIe 5.0 for GPU and SSD - A PCIe 5.0 x16 slot from the CPU for the graphics card and a Blazing M.2 slot for a 128Gb/s PCIe Gen5x4 SSD, plus three Hyper M.2 PCIe Gen4x4 slots and four SATA3 ports.
- Two Thunderbolt 4 ports - Two rear 40Gb/s Type-C ports with display output up to 8K 60Hz and USB PD charging up to 15W, plus a 20Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C front header.
- 2.5G LAN and Wi-Fi 6E - A Dragon RTL8125BG 2.5Gb/s controller and a 2x2 Wi-Fi 6E module with Bluetooth 5.3 and two antennas.
- BIOS Flashback and lighting - A BIOS Flashback button updates the BIOS without a CPU or memory installed, with one RGB and three ARGB headers and eight 4-pin fan and pump headers.
