Combined onboard features deliver premium sound

Audio shielding
It can drive high impedance headphones without dropping high or low frequencies.

Dedicated audio PCB layers
Separate layers for the left and right tracks ensure that both channels deliver the same quality.

Premium audio capacitors
Provides warm, natural and realistic sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity.

Aura Sync
Outshine the competition
A well-tuned enthusiast system deserves aesthetics to match. ASUS Aura offers complete RGB lighting control with a variety of presets for the onboard RGB LEDs as well as for strips and devices connected to the onboard RGB headers - all with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-enabled hardware be synchronized.

Addressable Gen 2 RGB port
Three addressable Gen 2 RGB headers can detect the number of LEDs on second-generation addressable RGB devices, allowing the software to automatically tailor lighting effects to specific devices. The new headers are also backwards compatible with existing Aura RGB devices.

Armory Crate
Within a single intuitive interface, the Armory Crate offers easily customizable Aura Sync RGB settings for every compatible device in your arsenal, as well as controls for an ever-growing family of ASUS products, including keyboard and mouse settings. Armory Crate also integrates product registration and news feed so you don“t miss updates that are interesting to the ASUS community.

Q LED Core
The Q-LED Core indicator produces light patterns during power-on self-test (POST) that can help users troubleshoot problems.

SafeSlot Core+
PCIe® 5.0 is 2x faster than PCIe® 4.0. That“s why we adapted our SMT manufacturing process for the faster SafeSlot Core+ to ensure the highest data speeds. SafeSlot Core+ is a reinforced metal shroud that is added to a PCIe slot to securely install a card.
