Product introduction

1.1 Before you proceed

1

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.

• Before handling components, use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, or components.

1.2 Motherboard overview

Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits.

Unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage to motherboard components.

1.2.1 Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, place it into the chassis in the correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image.

1.2.2 Screw holes

Place six screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.

1.4 System memory

1.4.1 Overview

This motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 4 (DDR4) Dual Inline Memory Module

(DIMM) sockets. A DDR4 module is notched differently from a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 module.

DO NOT install a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 memory module to the DDR4 slot.

According to Intel

®

CPU spec, DIMM voltage below 1.35 V is recommended to protect the

CPU.

ON

OFF

PRIME Z390-P 288-pin DDR4 DIMM sockets

1.4.2 Memory configurations

You may install 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, and 16 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR4 DIMMs into the

DIMM sockets. You can refer to the recommended memory population below.

Recommended memory configurations

• You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel configuration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.

• According to Intel ® the CPU.

CPU spec, DIMM voltage below 1.35V is recommended to protect

• When using one DIMM, install it into slot A2 for better memory compatibility and performance

ASUS PRIME Z390-P

1-7

1-8

• The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its Serial Presence Detect

(SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module.

Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a lower frequency than the vendor-marked value. To operate at the vendor-marked or at a higher frequency, refer to section

2.5 Ai Tweaker menu

for manual memory frequency adjustment.

• Always install the DIMMS with the same CAS Latency. For an optimum compatibility, we recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or data code

(D/C) from the same vendor. Check with the vendor to get the correct memory modules.

• For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full memory load (4 DIMMs) or overclocking condition.

1.5 Expansion slots

In the future, you may need to install expansion cards. The following sub-sections describe the slots and the expansion cards that they support.

Unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.

1.5.1 Installing an expansion card

To install an expansion card:

1. Before installing the expansion card, read the documentation that came with it and make the necessary hardware settings for the card.

2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed in a chassis).

3. Remove the bracket opposite the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screw for later use.

4. Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is completely seated on the slot.

5. Secure the card to the chassis with the screw you removed earlier.

6. Replace the system cover.

1.5.2 Configuring an expansion card

After installing the expansion card, configure it by adjusting the software settings.

1. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any. See Chapter 2 for information on BIOS setup.

2. Assign an IRQ to the card.

3. Install the software drivers for the expansion card.

When using PCI cards on shared slots, ensure that the drivers support “Share IRQ” or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments. Otherwise, conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups, making the system unstable and the card inoperable.

1.5.3 PCI Express 3.0 x1 slots

This motherboard supports PCI Express 3.0 x1 network cards, SCSI cards, and other cards that comply with the PCI Express specifications.

1.5.4 PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots

1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.

2. Use a metal object such as a screwdriver to short the two pins.

3. Plug the power cord and turn on the computer.

4. Hold down the <

Del

> key during the boot process and enter BIOS setup to reenter data.

If the steps above do not help, remove the onboard battery and short the two pins again to clear the CMOS RTC RAM data. After clearing the CMOS, reinstall the battery.

2. RGB header (4-pin RGB_HEADER)

This header is for RGB LED strips.

The RGB header supports 5050 RGB multi-color LED strips (12V/G/R/B), with a maximum power rating of 3A (12V), and no longer than 3 m.

Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, or components.

• Actual lighting and color will vary with LED strip.

• If your LED strip does not light up, check if the RGB LED extension cable and the

RGB LED strip is connected in the correct orientation, and the 12V connector is aligned with the 12V header on the motherboard.

• The LED strip will only light up when the system is operating.

• The LED strips are purchased separately.

Onboard switches

Onboard switches allow you to fine-tune performance when working on a bare or opencase system. This is ideal for overclockers and gamers who continually change settings to enhance system performance.

1. MemOK! II switch (MemOK!_II)

Installing DIMMs that are not compatible with the motherboard may cause system boot failure. The switch is enabled by default, allowing memory re-training when the motherboard is unresponsive due to memory problems. The Mem_LED will light up while re-training, and turn off when the re-training is complete.

for the exact location of the Mem_LED.

• The DRAM LED also lights up when the DIMM is not properly installed. Turn off the system and reinstall the DIMM before using the MemOK! II function.

• The MemOK! II switch does not function under Windows

®

OS environment.

• During the tuning process, the system loads and tests pretest profiles. It takes about

30 seconds for the system to test one set of profiles. If the test fails, the system reboots and tests the next set of profiles. The system will reboot multiple times when training, once the system has completed the training process the Mem_LED will turn off, please refrain from doing anything before the Mem_LED turns off.

• Due to memory tuning requirement, the system automatically reboots when each profile is tested. If the installed DIMMs still fail to boot after the whole tuning process, and the Mem_LED is turned off, please refer to the Q-code LED and Q-code table for more details on the error.

• If you turn off the computer and replace DIMMs during the tuning process, the system continues memory tuning after turning on the computer. To stop memory tuning, turn off the computer and unplug the power cord for about 5–10 seconds, then set the

MemOK! II switch to disabled.

• Installing DIMMs that are not compatible with the motherboard may cause system boot failure. The switch is enabled by default, allowing memory re-training when the motherboard is unresponsive due to memory problems. The Mem_LED will light up while re-training, and turn off when the re-training is complete.

• Ensure to replace the DIMMs with ones recommended in the Memory QVL (Qualified

Vendors Lists) at www.asus.com.

• The computer will reboot multiple times during the tuning process,

• We recommend that you download and update to the latest BIOS version from www.asus.com

after using the MemOK! II function.
