1.3.2 ROG Intelligent Performance & Overclocking features
Crosslinx
Crosslinx is a unique technology utilizing a dedicated special graphics controller
to optimize PCIe allocation with dual x8 lanes. Such architecture eliminates the x4
bottleneck found on competing x16, x4 solutions. Hence, the Crosslinx is able to
provide faster graphics performance.
Fusion Block System
Building on the ROG unique heatpipe, the Fusion Block System (FBS) provides
dual paths to cool down the motherboard. Users will be able to connect the FBS
with the watercooling circuit.
Component Overheat Protection -EX (COP EX)
When the temperature of Northbridge and Southbridge reaches the limit of
specications, the motherboard will automatically shut down to protect NB and SB
from burning.
2-Phase DDR2
With the embedded 2-Phase DDR2, this motherboard allows users to reach higher
memory frequencies and enjoy better performance. Compared with only one phase
solutions, this motherboard ensures longer power component lifespans and higher
overclockability due to cooler temperatures and better efciency.
Voltiminder LED
The voltage warning LED uses green, yellow, and red light on the motherboard to
highlight the voltage status of each respecitve component (CPU, memory, NB, SB).
