Cooling
Cooler by design
VRM heatsinks and thermal pads
The massive VRM heatsinks and essential thermal pads improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.
4-Pin PWM/DC fan
Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.
AIO pump header
A dedicated PWM/DC header supports self-contained water-cooling setups.
Multiple temperature sources
Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 2+ lets you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.
M.2 heatsinks
Two M.2 heatsinks take care of the three M.2 slots, preventing throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during extended transfers.
Passive chipset heatsink
An aluminum passive chipset heatsink ensures optimal cooling and stable performance. It is more durable and longer-lasting than heatsinks with fans, which can be vulnerable to the buildup of dust and debris.
Smart protection
A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from overheating and excess current.

Customization
DIY friendly
Q-Antenna
With Q-Antenna, attaching a WiFi antenna to your PC is now easy and fast. Instead of slowly rotating two fasteners until they finally lock in, they just snap into place. Less hassle, and more consistent performance.
PCIe Slot Q-Release
A physical lever unlocks the first PCIe slot’s security latch with one tap, greatly simplifying the process of detaching a PCIe card from the motherboard when it’s time to upgrade to a new graphics card or other compatible device.
M.2 Q-Latch
The innovative ASUS Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools or screws. This design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly detach it with one tap.
Q-Code
The on-board LED panel shows 2-digit diagnostic codes, providing a valuable reference for troubleshooting common boot problems and hardware issues.
Power Button
The convenient Start and Reset buttons remove the need to manually jump hard-to-reach pins during testing and troubleshooting.
Clear CMOS & BIOS FlashBack™
The Clear CMOS button quickly resets BlOS settings to factory default. lt can also be used to reboot the PC if incorrect BlOS settings have been selected.
BlOS FlashBack™ is a safe and simple way to update BlOS. Just drop the (UEFI) BlOS file onto a FAT32-formatted USB stick, plug it into the USB BlOS FlashBack port, and press the button. Updates can even be performed without having memory or a CPU installed.
Pre-Mounted I/O Shield
Our pre-installed I/O shield safeguards ports, simplifies the build process, increases functionality and enhances aesthetics for PC DIY enthusiasts.
SafeSlot
PCIe 5.0 is twice as fast as PCIe 4.0. ASUS has adapted our SMT manufacturing for the faster SafeSlot, a reinforced metal sheath that ensures secure card installation and faster data speeds.
