AEMP ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules.
Skip the cables with AIO Q-Connector
Shorter tubes, Cleaner Look There’s only so much you can do with a cable that starts on the side of an AIO’s pump housing and ends on a nearby header, and if you’ve opted for an AIO cooler with a built-in display, you’ll need to figure out a non-messy route for a second cable, as well.
The Dark Hero supports the AIO Q-Connector, compatible with select, premium ASUS AIOs that deliver the very best. It unites power and control for the pump, ARGB lighting, and—on select models—the integrated display, while radiator fan PWM signals are routed internally through the tube sleeving.
Efficient Cooling
Cooler Compatibility ASUS AIO coolers offer robust performance, high overclocking potential, bold aesthetics and customisable functionality for new X870E/X870 motherboards, empowering you to build your dream gaming rig.
Multiple temperature sources
Each header can be set to monitor and react to three user-configurable thermal sensors for workload-based cooling, and all settings can be easily managed by Fan Xpert 4 or UEFI.
4-pin fan headers
In addition to the pair of CPU fan headers, the ROG Crosshair X870E Hero features four chassis headers, and each supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.
AIO pump header
An additional PWM/DC fan header offers dedicated control of self-contained water-cooling setups.
PCIe 5.0 Fully embracing the new standard, the ROG Crosshair X870E Hero offers abundant Gen 5 support to give unfettered bandwidth to the fastest SSDs and graphics cards available.
Glow Your Gaming World
