Optimized for Extreme Performance

The 14+2+1 power phase design with Dr. MOS technology ensures smooth, stable power delivery to your CPU, even under heavy overclocking loads. The upgraded 20K Black capacitor increases capacitance to 1000µF, reducing ripple and improving system stability during intense gaming or content creation sessions.

Blazing-Fast Storage & Memory

PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots support the latest ultra-fast SSDs with up to 128GB/s transfer speeds. DDR5 memory is overclockable via XMP/EXPO profiles, letting you push performance further without manual tuning. The 8-layer PCB improves signal integrity and thermal efficiency for reliable high-speed operation.

Next-Gen Connectivity

Killer E3100 2.5 GbE LAN prioritizes gaming traffic for lower latency, while Wi-Fi 7 with Multi-link Operation (MLO) offers faster, more stable wireless connections ideal for VR and cloud gaming. USB4 Type-C delivers 40Gbps data transfer, and front-panel USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C ensures future-proof expandability.

Advanced Cooling & DIY Design

An enlarged aluminum heatsink array keeps M.2 SSDs and VRMs cool under load. Toolless M.2 heatsink installation and anti-drop screws make SSD upgrades frustration-free. Three chassis fan headers and dual CPU fan connectors provide flexible cooling control.

Immersive Audio & RGB Customization

Nahimic Audio delivers 7.1-channel surround sound with noise suppression and voice stabilization for crystal-clear communication. POLYCHROME RGB headers let you sync lighting across compatible devices for a personalized gaming aesthetic.
