The Asus ROG Strix Z390-I is a compact, ITX form factor motherboard for 8th- and 9th-generation Core series processors. Despite its small size, it packs a lot of features and connectivity. Inside, it offers two full-size memory slots, four SATA ports, two M.2 connectors, and a PCI-Express x16 slot that can be used for a full size GPU or other expansion card (provided the chassis is large enough). Externally, the board provides a wide range of connections: audio input / output, WiFi, Bluetooth, gigabit Ethernet, and several USB ports, including one USB 3.1 Type C. There are also two video outputs, HDMI and DisplayPort, thanks to the Intel graphics built into the CPU.
