Stable power delivery is critical for maximizing the full performance of Intel processors. The motherboard is designed to meet the needs of processors with a high core count. It features 12(80A) + 1(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power phases, which incorporate high-side and low-side MOSFETs as well as drivers, in packages that support up to 80A each. This configuration ensures optimal power supply, efficiency, stability, and performance for both current and future Intel processors.

Premium Power Design
Stable power delivery is critical for maximizing the full performance of Intel processors. The motherboard is designed to meet the needs of processors with a high core count. It features 12(80A) + 1(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power phases, which incorporate high-side and low-side MOSFETs as well as drivers, in packages that support up to 80A each. This configuration ensures optimal power supply, efficiency, stability, and performance for both current and future Intel processors.
AEMP III for Ultimate DDR5 Performance
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that allows users to achieve unparalleled memory performance using advanced CUDIMM memory. Through a two-phase tuning process, AEMP III first optimizes the clock driver and then the memory frequency. This results in the best balance between performance and stability, even at top speeds of DDR5-7600 or higher.
Larger VRM Heatsinks
The extended surface of this heatsink covers the MOSFETs and chokes to improve thermal performance.
PCIe 5.0 for graphics cards
PCIe 5.0 offers double the data transfer speed compared to PCIe 4.0, making it powerful enough to handle new, data-intensive tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other advantages, such as electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connections for add-on cards, and full compatibility with previous versions of the PCIe bus.
High-Speed Networking
-
2.5Gb Ethernet
The built-in 2.5Gb Ethernet takes the LAN connection to a new level, improving bandwidth speeds up to 2.5 times faster than 1Gb connections. -
WiFi 7
The next-generation WiFi 7 supports 160 MHz bandwidth in the 6 GHz band and 4096 QAM. The multi-link operation (MLO) ensures stable connections and low latency, supporting the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands for improved coverage and data transmission speed.
