ASUS PRIME Z890-P WIFI-CSM – Intel Core Ultra Ready Motherboard

About the ASUS PRIME Z890-P WIFI-CSM Motherboard

Intel's Arrow Lake platform just launched, and Z890 boards are the only way to run Core Ultra Series 2 processors. This ASUS PRIME board gets you into the new platform at entry-level pricing while keeping the features that actually matter. Wi-Fi 7, four M.2 slots, Thunderbolt 4, and DDR5 support make it a solid foundation for gaming or productivity builds.

What This Z890 Motherboard Does for You

Think of your motherboard as the foundation of your PC—everything connects to it. This board supports Intel's latest Core Ultra chips, from budget i5 models up to flagship i9 processors. DDR5 memory runs up to 8666MT/s with overclocking, so your RAM won't bottleneck performance. The PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot future-proofs your primary storage drive.

Wi-Fi 7 eliminates the need for ethernet cables running across your room. Thunderbolt 4 handles fast external drives, docks, or high-resolution displays through one cable. The 2.5Gb ethernet port works for wired connections when you need maximum stability for gaming or large file transfers.

Connectivity and Expansion

Four M.2 slots stand out at this price point—most budget boards only include two or three. One PCIe 5.0 slot handles your main SSD, while three PCIe 4.0 slots give you room for game libraries, project files, or media storage. Four SATA ports let you add older drives you already own.

The rear I/O includes Thunderbolt 4, DisplayPort, HDMI, and plenty of USB ports (including USB 10Gbps). Good for integrated graphics builds or adding peripherals without running out of ports. ASUS Q-Design features like M.2 Q-Latch make installation easier—no tiny screws to lose.

Perfect For

• First or second-time PC builders wanting modern features without overspending on extreme overclocking capabilities
• Gamers upgrading to Intel Core Ultra who need reliable performance at 1440p or 4K with a discrete GPU. Check compatible graphics cards.
• Content creators who need multiple fast storage drives for video editing, 3D rendering, or large project files
• Productivity users who value Thunderbolt 4 for docks, external displays, and fast data transfers

Frequently Asked Questions About the ASUS PRIME Z890 Motherboard

What makes the ASUS PRIME Z890-P special compared to older Intel boards?

This board supports Intel's new Core Ultra Series 2 processors on the LGA1851 socket. You get modern features like Wi-Fi 7, DDR5 memory up to 8666MT/s, and PCIe 5.0 storage at entry-level Z890 pricing. Four M.2 slots and Thunderbolt 4 are rare at under SGD 500.

Who is this motherboard for?

Perfect for mid-range PC builders wanting Intel's Arrow Lake platform without overpaying. Great for gamers needing solid 1440p/4K performance with a discrete GPU. Also suits content creators who need multiple fast storage drives and Thunderbolt 4 connectivity.

Does this work with my Intel Core i5-14600K or older Intel CPUs?

No, this Z890 board only supports Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors (Arrow Lake). These use the new LGA1851 socket. Older Intel CPUs like 12th, 13th, or 14th gen won't fit. Check compatibility before buying.

What warranty and support comes with this motherboard?

Includes 2-year Singapore warranty with ASUS local service support. Motherboards are mission-critical—if yours fails, your whole PC is down. We're open 7 days a week and provide fast WhatsApp response for technical questions or compatibility advice.

How does this compare to premium Z890 boards like ROG or TUF models?

You lose extreme overclocking features, RGB lighting everywhere, and premium audio components. But you keep what matters: Wi-Fi 7, four M.2 slots, Thunderbolt 4, and good VRM design. Costs SGD 100-200 less than ROG models.

Is this motherboard in stock in Singapore?

Stock status updates in real-time on our website. If in stock, we offer same-day dispatch for orders placed before 5pm. Home delivery available across Singapore. WhatsApp us to confirm availability before ordering.

Is this worth the price over a B860 motherboard?

Z890 gives you better overclocking support, more PCIe lanes, and typically better VRM cooling. This PRIME board at SGD 449 includes Wi-Fi 7 and Thunderbolt 4—features often missing on budget B860 boards. Worth it if you want room to upgrade later.
