OptiMem III
1. Fan Bracket and VRM Fan
A bundled fan bracket and additional VRM fan provide additional cooling to critical components as you push your build to its limits.
2. Integrated I/O Cover and VRM Heatsinks
An aluminum I/O cover and two VRM heatsinks connected by an L-shaped heat pipe provide ample surface area and mass to deal with the heat generated by the latest Intel processors.
3.Thermal Pads
High-quality thermal pads efficiently transfer heat from the inductor and phase array to the heatsink.
4. M.2 Heatsinks
The M.2 heatsinks keep the M.2 SSD at optimum operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.
5. M.2 Backplate
An integrated M.2 backplate helps ensure that high-performance drives deliver peak performance, even when airflow is restricted.

Cooler by Design
power control and an array of power stages provide the muscle needed to control the latest Intel CPUs.
1. Teamed Power Stages
14+2 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest Intel processors demand.
2. 6-Layer PCB
The PCB design quickly dissipates heat around the VRM to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.
3. Alloy Choke & Capacitor
Superior chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, enabling performance that exceeds industry standards.
4. ProCool II Power Connector
The ASUS ProCool II socket is built to tight specifications to ensure flush contact with the PSU power lines. Metal armor improves heat dissipation, and lower impedance helps prevent hotspots and improves reliability.

Intel® Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+)
Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band. It provides up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds and improved capacity as well as better performance in dense wireless environments.
*WiFi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi. Learn more about the ASUS WiFi 6 ecosystem.
Dual Intel 2.5 Gb Ethernet
Dual onboard 2.5 Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost, with up to a 2.5X improvement over standard Ethernet connections for faster file transfers, smoother lag-free gaming and high-res video streaming.
