CrossChill
Choose between air or water cooling - it works with both! Unlike competing hybrid thermal
solutions, CrossChill requires no fans, so there’s no noise or dust build-up.
For those who prefer water cooling, you can achieve up to 23
o
C lower MOSFET
temperatures for a more stable overclocking experience! The water channel ns help
maximize the surface area for heat transfer and thanks to its G1/4 threaded ttings,
CrossChill ts into any existing setup!
SupremeFX
SupremeFX delivers premium audio quality without a separate audio card. SupremeFX
Shielding Technology using physical PCB isolation, grounding separation, and EMI cover
shielding combined with premium components such as ELNA audio capacitors and German-
made WIMA Film capacitors result in audiophile level audio performance. Lossless audio
quality is ensured thanks to a new front-panel headphone DAC that delivers 120dB SNR
while a new HD audio IC pumps audio quality to 115dB SNR in live tests. Enhanced with
a 600 Ohm headphone amplier, every sound detail is boosted to maximum clarity and
audibility.
Sonic Radar
Sonic awareness can make or break online combat, so we’ve developed a stealthy overlay
that shows you what opponents and teammates are up to. Gunshots, footsteps, and call outs
appear with precise directioning on the on-screen radar, which gives you the advantage of
better intelligence and avoiding sneaky opponent surprises. Even snipers can’t get away that
easy! Plus, it integrates Enhancer, which has four pre-set equalizer bands optimized to FPS
games you can select to best-suit your gameplay preferences, leading to games that always
sound better, clearer, and more real.
GameFirst II
Offering powerful, yet easy-to-use network control, ROG GameFirst II with cFos Trafc
Shaping technology is revamped with a more intuitive ROG user interface. Featuring both
an exclusive EZ Mode for beginners to setup and Advanced Mode for professional users to
tweak, it means whatever your PC does in the background; your fragging will always come
rst!
Intel Gigabit LAN
The LAN solution from Intel has been long known to have a better throughput, lower CPU
utilization as well as better stability. With the Intel Gigabit LAN solutions onboard, the
ultimate network experience can therefore be delivered to its users like never before.
