COOLER BY DESIGN
1. VRM HEATSINK
A large, high-mass heatsink with extensive surface that covers the VRM and choke areas improves heat dissipation.
THERMAL PAD
High-quality thermal pads help transfer heat from the inductor and phase array to the heatsink.
2. M.2 HEATSINK
The M.2 heatsink keeps the M.2 SSD at the optimum operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.
DUAL PCIE 3.0 M.2
Dual M.2 slots support data-transfer speeds of up to 32 Gbps on the x4 PCI Express® 3.0 bandwidth, making it perfect for OS or application drives for quicker boot-up and app load times.
*Actual transmission speed will be lower than theoretical maximum speed.
ASUS OPTIMEM
Revisions to the motherboard's trace routing provide the latest Intel processors with unrestricted access to memory bandwidth. ASUS OptiMem technology carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk.
GAMING AUDIO
REALTEK S1200A
HIGH-DEFINITION AUDIO
Premium Japanese audio capacitors provide warm, natural, and immersive sound.
EXCLUSIVE S1200A CODEC
ASUS-exclusive codec delivers an expansive soundstage and dynamic sound.
