Unprecedented Innovation with the Best Quality Component for Best Performance
The
groundbreaking 12+2 phase VRM design is brrought to the ASUS
motherboards. 12+2 phase power design, 12-phase for vCore and extra
2-phase for Memory controller inside CPU, can provide the highest power
efficiency, and hence generates less heat to effectively enhance the
overclocking capability. With the high quality power components such as
low RDS (on) MOSFETs, Ferrite core chokes with lower hysteresis loss
and 100% Japan-made high quality conductive polymer capacitors, ASUS
12+2 phase VRM design also ensure longer component life and minimum
power loss.
*16 Hybrid Phase = 12+2 Phase x T.Probe
This motherboard uses all high-quality conductive polymer capacitors onboard for durability, improved lifespan, and enhanced thermal capacity.
Leading Active Cooling Technology
The
T.Probe microchip detects and balances power phase loads and
temperatures real-time. With optimal power phase functions, components
run cooler and extend system lifespan.
0 to Internet in Seconds!
Express Gate is an
ASUS exclusive OS that provides you with quick access to the Internet
and key applications before entering Windows®.
Any Memory is A-OK!
MemOK!
quickly ensures memory boot compatibility. This remarkable memory
rescue tool requires a mere push of a button to patch memory issues.
MemOK! determines failsafe settings and dramatically improves your
system boot success. Get your system up and running in no time!
System Level Energy Saving
The
new ASUS EPU - the world´s first power saving engine, has been upgraded
to a new six engine version, which provides total system power savings
by detecting current PC loadings and intelligently moderating power in
real-time. With auto phase switching for components (which includes the
CPU, VGA card, memory, chipset, drives and system fan), the EPU
automatically provides the most appropriate power usage via intelligent
acceleration and overclocking - helping save power and money.
The crystal-shaped heatsink features 0-dB thermal solution that offers users a noiseless PC environment. Not only the beautiful shape upgrades the visual enjoyment for motherboard users, but also the heatsink design lowers the temperature of the chipset and power phase area through high efficient heat-exchange. Combined with usability and aesthetics, the ASUS crystal-shaped heatsink will give users an extremely silent and cooling experience with the elegant appearance!
Active Quiet & Cool
ASUS
Fan Xpert intelligently allows users to adjust both the CPU and chassis
fan speed according to different ambient temperature , which is caused
by different climate conditions in different geographic regions and
system loading.Built-in variety of useful profiles offer flexible
controls of fan speed to achieve a quiet and cool environment.
ASUS Xtreme Phase Power Design plus Stack Cool 3 provides a better thermal solution with more efficient heat dissipation up to 11%. Lowering the onboard temperature improves overall motherboard performance and prolongs the lifespan of critical components.
Enjoy High-End 8-channel sound system on your PC!
The
onboard 8-channel HD audio (High Definition Audio, previously codenamed
Azalia) CODEC enables high-quality 192KHz/24-bit audio output,
jack-sensing feature, retasking functions and multi-streaming
technology that simultaneously sends different audio streams to
different destinations. This motherboard now adopts the future standard
to deliver the most vivid audio enjoyment!!
Eliminate background noise while recording
This
feature detects repetitive and stationary noises like computer fans,
air conditioners, and other background noises then eliminates it in the
incoming audio stream while recording.
DTS Surround Sensation UltraPC delivers exceptional 5.1 surround experience through the most common PC audio setups - your existing stereo speakers or headphones. In addition to virtual surround, Bass enhancement provides stronger low frequency bass sound, and Voice clarification provides clear human dialogue even with loud background sound. With these technologies, you may experience a better home-theater audio with ease.
Easy and Comfortable Installations
The
specially designed ASUS Q-Shield does without the usual "fingers" -
making it convenient and easy to install. With better electric
conductivity, it ideally protects your motherboard against static
electricity and shields it against Electronic Magnetic Interference
(EMI).
Simply update BIOS from a USB flash disk before entering the OS
EZ
Flash 2 is a user-friendly BIOS update utility. Simply launch this tool
and update BIOS from a USB flash disk before entering the OS. You can
update your BIOS only in a few clicks without preparing an additional
floppy diskette or using an OS-based flash utility.
Conveniently store or load multiple BIOS settings
Freely
share and distribute favorite overclocking settings The motherboard
features the ASUS O.C. Profile that allows users to conveniently store
or load multiple BIOS settings. The BIOS settings can be stored in the
CMOS or a separate file, giving users freedom to share and distribute
their favorite overclocking settings.
