COOLING

ROG Dominus Extreme is built to provide the best foundation for extreme scenarios. With 28-core processing, effective cooling is extremely important, so ROG Dominus Extreme provides comprehensive cooling features that enable higher performance at lower temperatures.

HEATSINKS

  • 1ALUMINUM IO COVER

    The cover is crafted from pure aluminum to efficiently cool the 10G Ethernet controller.

  • 2DUAL BACKPLATES

    Dual backplates add rigidity and additional functionality to the oversized board. The upper one adds additional mass to siphon heat from the VRM.

  • 3ACTIVE HEATSINK

    Fans located within the heatsink turn on above 30°C and allow ROG Dominus Extreme to handle sustained power draw of over 570 amps.

  • 4ACTIVE PCH HEATSINK

    The PCH heatsink blends seamlessly with the Aluminum cover. Underneath is a fan that turns on above 30°C and prominently features the ROG logo.

PERFORMANCE

We’ve designed every aspect of Dominus Extreme to provide the solid foundation needed to create an extreme gaming and workstation system that delivers the highest performance.

POWER DESIGN THAT BUCKS TRENDS 

The monstrous compute power of high core count processors necessitates a power circuit that rapidly responds to massive current swings. And those demands increase exponentially when the CPU is overclocked. Featuring an array of 32 strategically teamed power stages, the Dominus Extreme VRM is geared for any workload and all operating conditions.

  • Robust power delivery starts at the component level. Every aspect of the Dominus Extreme’s VRM is generously over-specified for the task.

  • QUAD 8-pin ProCool power connectors

    Quad ProCool connectors ensure a snug and reliable connection to the EPS 12V power lines.

  • POWIRSTAGE® IR3555

    The Dominus Extreme VRM is comprised of 32 IR3555 PowIRstages, each rated to handle 60 amps.

  • MicroFine alloy chokes

    Each PowIRstage is accompanied by a high-permeability alloy-core choke rated to handle 40 amps.

  • 10K Japanese-made black metallic capacitors

    Input and output filtering is provided by solid-polymer capacitors rated to last thousands of hours at high operating temperatures.

POWER ARCHITECTURE

Overclocked multi-core processors place incredible loads on the VRM when transitioning between load states. However, conventional motherboard design practices place primary focus on component specs without implementing circuit topologies that provide optimal transient response. The Dominus Extreme bucks industry trends by utilizing teamed PowIRstages to quadruple the burst current of each phase and rapidly respond to load changes.

The Dominus Extreme’s VRM reacts quickly to load changes and suffers from less overshoot and undershoot than alternative power solutions, allowing the processor to remain stable at lower average core voltages.

DDR4 4200MHz+

HCC processors crunching multi-threaded compute workloads can demand colossal memory space and bandwidth. The Dominus Extreme features T-topology to maximize signal integrity and drive high-density memory configurations to speeds previously reserved for low-capacity setups.

OPTIMIZATION

The Dominus Extreme is packed with intuitive and flexible tools that let you customize every aspect of your system. Pre-configured overclocking profiles let you enjoy maximum performance with minimal configuration, while comprehensive UEFI BIOS settings let you take full manual control and tune your system exactly the way you want.

Performance Level Up

AI Suite 3’s dashboard-style control panel lets you fine-tune almost every aspect of your ROG Dominus Extreme system. Get the best balance between performance, cooling, stability, and efficiency via one simple and intuitive interface.

  • All-around energy efficiency

    EPU

    With the Energy Processing Unit (EPU) you'll enjoy system-wide power savings. The EPU automatically optimizes power consumption and maximizes savings with Away mode — a smart setting that creates an extreme energy-saving scenario by shutting down unused I/O controllers.

  • Flexible cooling controls for air or liquid

    Fan Xpert 4

    Enjoy comprehensive control over fans and water pumps, via either Fan Expert 4 or our UEFI. Whether you're cooling with air or water, Auto-Tuning mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There's also an Extreme Quiet mode, which reduces all fan speeds to below the default minimum — keeping your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks.

  • Precise digital power control

    Digital Power Controls

    The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, switching frequency and power-efficiency settings, allowing you to fine-tune CPU voltage regulation for ultimate stability and performance.

Easy-to-use UEFI BIOS

The UEFI BIOS is an early waypoint on any PC-building journey, and ROG Dominus Extreme offers one of the best in the business.

  • When you’re ready for a deeper dive, delve into the UEFI’s Advanced mode and take complete control. Advanced mode enables full control over every aspect of the motherboard, and a built-in search function helps you quickly find the setting you need.
