better look for an other AIO the NZXT software is not the best out there also the performance is not good, memory you can go up to 7800 MT, Gskill DDR works good with Asus mainboards, Asus haves very nice PSU
AIO : EKWB EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Lux D-RGB
PSU : ASUS ROG Strix Aura Edition 1000 W
Depends on what you mean by SSD slots, broadly speaking there are two different ones. The SATA SSDs (e.g. Samsung 870 EVO (1000 GB, 2.5")) and M.2 SSDs (Samsung 980 Pro (2000 GB, M.2 2280).).
This mainboard supports 6x SATA and 3x M.2 SSDs (or these connections are available).
The ROG Strix Z790-E Gaming Wifi motherboard is not compatible with Intel Core Ultra 9 processors. It is designed to support 12th and 13th generation Intel Core processors, but not Intel Core Ultra processors. For Intel Core Ultra processors, it is best to consult motherboards specifically designed for these models, such as the ROG Strix Z890-E Gaming Wifi.
Update Bios, always with these new MBs DDR 5 is still pretty new…?secondly check where you have out the RAM physically. If it’s two sticks of ram look actually on the motherboard. It says where it should go. Should go into a2 b2 not a1 or a2.
Well, I have a RTX 3060 with 12GB from MSI installed, I'm happy with it, I mainly play CK3 or similar at the moment anyway, so it should be enough for Anno ;)
Exclusively DDR5 modules.
I only got 2 RAM modules "to work" at 5600 MHz.
With 4 RAM modules, the system only ran reasonably stable at 4000 MHz.
I would therefore recommend buying only 2 modules.
For -E and -F, slightly different specs, e.g. M2 slots (5 vs 4) or their PCIe version support, or USB front panel connections. Power stages (VRM, capacitors) are also slightly different - these are shown in the product detail page on asus.com. -P is not 'ROG', so further different, including design (it's white/silver). There is now a II model for -E and -F, with support for Intel 14th gen, which seem more similar between themselves though...
-F and -E compared:

I installed the mainboard yesterday and so far the system works perfectly. However, I cannot find the Realtek High Definition drivers. My speakers, which are connected optically via Toslink, are recognised in the Device Manager with USB2.0 Audio, but there are no entries for Realtek High Definition or similar. With my old mainboard, I had downloaded Realtek High Definition separately from the manufacturer's website and installed it. The speakers were recognised with Realtek High Definition in the sound settings. I also had an audio suite where I could make my sound settings as desired, but with the Asus Z790 I only have the Windows sound settings available.
If anyone can help me, I would be very grateful. For me, the HD audio codecs of the mainboard were also decisive.
Thank you very much.
The integrated/onboard graphics unit is not on the mainboard itself, it is in the CPU. This means that simply buying a mainboard with interfaces (VGA, DP, HDMI, etc) to connect a monitor does not mean that these can also be used. Only if the CPU also has a graphics unit do you not need a standalone graphics card.
With Intel, it is the case that in principle all CPUs that do not have the letter F in their name have a graphics unit. F= no int. graphics unit.
With AMD it is the other way round. Only CPUs that have a G at the end offer an integrated graphics unit.
