Asus ROG Crosshair X870E Apex Motherboard

The ROG Overclocker?s Toolkit includes hardware-level controls that can enhance your overclocking experience. They include Safe Boot, BCLK, and Retry buttons, along with RSVD, LN2 Mode, Slow Mode, and BIOS switches. There are also Probeit measurement points for advanced tuning. A differential-sensing circuit and delicate IC simplify overclocking and tuning by allowing you to accurately track voltages. Specialized circuitry detects when condensation occurs on the back of the board.

ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory.

Equipped with 18(110A)+2(110A)+2(80A) power stages with ProCool II connectors, MicroFine alloy chokes, and durable capacitors, this motherboard delivers stable power throughout the entire motherboard, maintaining electrical volume whether you are performing simple tasks or operating at full power during resource-demanding processes.

The included cooling solution can unleash memory overclocking for up to 9600 MT/s.

A VRM heat sink works with highly conductive thermal pads and a chipset heat sink to efficiently dissipate heat. M.2 heat sinks and dedicated backplates help to ensure optimal SSD performance during sustained workloads. The DIMM.2 card also includes a hefty heat sink.

With the addition of height channels, Dolby Atmos surround sound creates an immersive audio experiences by providing the sensation of sound coming from above, below, and around the listener.

With PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim, simply tilt the card toward the latching mechanism to automatically unlock it from the PCIe slot. Users no longer need to fiddle with a tricky latch or even press a button to release their graphics card from the slot.

With Q-Antenna, attaching a Wi-Fi antenna to your PC is a snap. Instead of slowly rotating two fasteners until they finally lock in, they just snap into place.

The on-board Q-LED troubleshooting lights give PC builders a quick indicator to confirm that key components are functioning normally during startup. It can also alert them when memory modules have not been properly installed.

A built-in start button and Q-Code LEDs help you quickly identify problems.

Clear the CMOS at the touch of a button to help remove data corruption from the chip. BIOS FlashBack makes BIOS updates easy. Just load the BIOS file onto a FAT32 USB stick, insert it into the BIOS FlashBack port, and press a button. No CPU or memory needed.

Accessed via ASUS DriverHub, TurboV Core delivers intuitive CPU tuning that can unleash performance for overclocking enthusiasts. No need to enter the BIOS. You can modify settings directly from within Windows and apply them without needing to reboot.

Using this app enables smooth screen sharing and control across PCs, tablets, and smartphones via wired or wireless connections, across multiple platforms.

This comprehensive diagnostic tool provides detailed information about hardware components and real-time system monitoring.

The AIDA64 Extreme tool provides detailed information about the hardware components and software, performs benchmark tests, and helps prevent possible hardware issues. A 60-day trial subscription is included.

Armoury Crate is a software utility designed to give you centralized control of supported gaming products, making it easy to tune the look and feel of your system. From a single intuitive interface, Armoury Crate helps you customize RGB lighting and effects for compatible devices and synchronize them with Aura Sync to create a unified lighting scheme across your system. In addition, Armoury Crate?s Fan Xpert4 tool provides comprehensive control over fans, water pumps, and all-in-one (AIO) coolers.

The three addressable Gen 2 headers automatically optimize lighting effects for the number of LEDs present on compatible ARGB gear.
