  An exclusive circuit design with built-in voltage regulators to protect your chipset, connectivity ports, and audio codecs from damage caused by unexpected high-level voltages from unstable or inferior power supplies.

• DRAM overcurrent protection

  Onboard resettable fuses prevent overcurrent and short-circuit damage. This extends beyond I/O ports to DRAM to safeguard the lifespan of both your system and connected devices.

• DIGI+ VRM

  DIGI+ VRM intelligently delivers power to the processor based on real-time demands, reducing energy waste and improving system stability.

• Stainless-steel back I/O

  Corrosion-resistant stainless steel back I/O panels bonded with chromium oxide have a much longer lifespan than ordinary panels.

• ESD guards

  Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can happen suddenly, and its damaging effects are easily underestimated. ASUS ESD guards employ an active protective circuit design to guard your system against electrostatic interference and damage, providing greater component longevity.

• EZ tuning wizard - OC and RAID

  Select your hardware and apply different scenarios to tune system performance, or streamline your RAID configuration for faster data retrieval and backups.

• SATA Express

  SATA Express is an advanced connectivity standard - and ensures that you and your system won't get left behind.

• M.2

  With x4 PCI Express 3.0/2.0 bandwidth, M.2 supports up to 32 Gbit/s data-transfer speeds. It is the perfect choice for an operating system or application drive, making your whole PC or professional apps work as fast as possible.

• 10 Gbit/s USB 3.1 onboard

  With USB 3.1 Type-A port, you'll experience data transfer speeds of up to 10 Gbit/s - or twice as fast USB 3.0. USB 3.1 is completely backward-compatible with your existing USB devices, and you'll be all set for USB 3.1's breakneck speeds. And ASUS-exclusive USB 3.1 Boost technology automatically accelerates USB 3.1 performance even further.

• Instant front-panel USB 3.0 experience

  USB 3.0 is right where you need it - four super-speed ports on the front panel. Experience data-transfer speeds up to much faster than USB 2.0 with instant Plug-and-Play connectivity, so no more back-breaking contortions in the hunt for hard-to-reach rear ports.

• USB Type-C for convenient connectivity

  USB Type-C (USB-C) delivers future device compatibility and high-speed USB connectivity from a slim, reversible port.

• Gear up and win the battlefield

  Beautiful LED-illuminated trace paths brighten your build and highlight noise-isolated, precision-shielded, interference-eliminated onboard audio.

• LED-illuminated design

  Brighten up your build with the gorgeous illuminated audio trace path.

• Audio enjoyment

  Audio shielding ensures precision analog / digital separation and greatly reduced multi-lateral interference. Separate layers for left and right tracks ensure both channels deliver consistent, equal quality. Premium audio capacitors provide warm, natural, and immersive sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity.

• Safe motherboard mounting

  Fitting your ASUS motherboard is very safe. The comprehensive component-free 'safe zones' around every case-mounting hole minimizes the risk of damage and short circuits caused by contact - so you'll assemble your PC with total confidence.

• Q-Slot

  The large winged clip is easy to reach and easy to operate. Just press the Q-Slot clip lightly, and graphics card just pop out. Installing or removing even very big graphics cards is no sweat.

• Q-DIMM

  Even if you work with a smaller case, just push down on the one-sided clip and push or pull RAM modules in or out - couldn't be simpler.

• Advanced fan controls

  With onboard thermal sensors and hardware-level 4-pin / 3-pin PWM / DC mode detection, Fan Xpert 3 makes sure every fan achieves optimal balance of cooling performance and low noise.
