Does this motherboard have the resizable bar option? I have Intel Arc A770 that my current PC doesn't have and trying to build a new rig.

Yes, this motherboard supports Resizable BAR. You will find it under the Advanced/PCI Subsystem Settings in BIOS.

Will this board run SLI? they no longer mention multi gpu support even though it may. I had a z590 e that would.

The product information provided does not mention support for SLI or multi-GPU setups. Therefore, it is unclear if this motherboard supports SLI.

Are you able to install the M.2 Rog Hyper card into the PCIE 5 #2 slot if you have a large GPU like a 4090 in the PCIE 5 #1 slot?

NO NO NO - this mobo is too small.

Could someone, after this board is available, verify the Bluetooth specs since they seem to be inaccurate? It appears the board uses an Intel Wireless AX211 which is Bluetooth 5.3 capable, which some new Apple products also have. It could make a difference going forward, so verification of this specification would be appreciated.

The ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Hero motherboard is specified to have Bluetooth v5.2. Verification of Bluetooth 5.3 capability is not provided in the current product information.

It appears this board should support Bluetooth 5.3 with the AX211 Wi-Fi. Since some new Apple products also support 5.3, could anyone, once the boards are available, verify the Specs. for Bluetooth? It may make a difference as to what capabilities will be available going forward.

READ THE ONLINE MANUAL AT ASUS.COM. SERIOUSLY - that's what most people do. I have the board. I looked at all the specs PRIOR to buying this board. It's awesome. Why would you ask this question without looking it up first - this is a $700 board and you can't be bothered to look at the USER MANUAL prior to purchase?
