DDR5 DominationFor those who want to fly past stock DDR5 speeds, the Apex is primed and ready for enthusiast-grade kits, courtesy of vast AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support. Seasoned veterans can further tweak performance via the extensive array of settings in the UEFI.
Loaded With M.2 SlotsThis motherboard also features two PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots to enjoy the fastest data transfers of up to 128 Gbps*, and all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest available speeds.
DIY Friendly
AI-Powered Adaptations
AI Cooling 2AI Cooling II balances the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. An exclusive ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then it monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds, ensuring efficiency.
AI OverclockingFrom the moment you turn on the system, dedicated onboard microcontrollers track temperature and frequency telemetry to gauge the unique capabilities of your CPU and system cooling. This data is then passed through an algorithm to provide overlcocking stats.
AI Networking 2AI Networking II uses advanced, intelligent technology to optimise network speeds, ensuring smooth, reliable WiFi 7 performance. With Traffic Monitor, you can easily check channel congestion and switch to a less crowded channel for faster connections. Fast Check lets you instantly assess WiFi signal strength, while Direction Finder helps pinpoint the best antenna angle for maximum signal clarity.
Ready For Overclocking
DYNAMIC OC SWITCHERDynamic OC Switcher maximises CPU performance by letting you set current and temperature thresholds to automatically switch between a manual overlock. The latest Overclocking Load Guard has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking.
CORE FLEXIn its simplest form, you can set breakpoints to gradually reduce CPU core frequency as temperature or current increases. But the system is extremely adaptable, supporting multiple user-controlled functions that can manipulate power, current and temperature limits independently so that you can bend CPU performance to your will.
Frosted Flow
Premium ConstructionThis motherboard features high-quality materials in its heatsinks, allowing for steady heat dissipation and lasting durability. Built to handle advanced cooling setups, it’s ready for both air and liquid cooling options, keeping everything cool and running smoothly even under heavy loads.
Outshine The Competition
Aura Sync ShineROG boards feature ASUS Aura technology, enabling full lighting control and a variety of presets for both onboard RGB LEDs and third-party accessories. Effects can be easily synced across compatible ROG graphics cards, monitors, keyboards, and mice to give your setup a unified look.
