Aorus Z390 I Pro WiFi Mini-ITX Motherboard Review

Aorus Z390 I Mini-ITX Pro WiFi

Do you plan to build yourself a little PC with a big heart? Then the Aorus Xtreme Z390 I mini-ITX motherboard we’re reviewing today may be perfect for you. It may be compact, but it’s packing some pretty serious features. Most importantly, it’ll support the current Intel Core i9-9900K 8-Core CPU; which we know is insanely powerful.

Tiny Motherboard Big Features

Not being left too far behind its ATX brethren, this model uses a 6+2 Phase Digital Power Design which includes both digital PWM Controllers and PowIRStage MOSFET. This configuration is able to provide at least 40A of power from each phase. Furthermore, there’s support for 4400 MHz DDR4, and possibly even higher than that. You’ll find huge heat sinks, M.2 cooling, reinforced hardware, RGB lighting, high-performance ALC1220 audio, and more! Small motherboard it may be, but it’s clearly never heard the word “compromise.”

What AORUS Had to Say

“The falcon utilizes its powerful wings to soar through the skies and lock down its prey. The AORUS Core takes inspiration from the falcon’s aerodynamic wings, incorporating a multi-layered design which features wing shaped contours and also resembles the falcon’s high velocity ascension and dive through the skies. With sleek and metallic armor, the AORUS Core symbolizes advancement in technology with its futuristic style.” – AORUS

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
