Ultrafast Networking
10 Gb & 2.5 Gb Ethernet
Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for 2.5 Gb internet streaming or uploading and 10 Gb for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data organisation and security.
WiFi 7
The revolutionary WiFi 7 is up to 4.8X faster than standard WiFi 6, thanks to technology like 320 MHz channels* on the 6GHz band and 4K QAM**. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming and industrial IoT.
ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna
Dual transceivers support the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands to enable faster throughput, with directional sensitivity to improve signal quality and cover greater distances.
*WiFi 7 features require onboard WiFi chipset, WiFi AP, and WiFi 7-supported operating systems to support the corresponding features. 320 MHz channels in the 6 GHz band may be unavailable in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions.
**Specifications vary by model.

ProCool II Connectors
These are built to tight specifications to ensure flush contact with PSU power lines. The resulting lower impedance helps to prevent hotspots and connector failure.
Superior Chokes & Capacitors
These are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, providing a higher level of performance than the industry standard.
Digi+ VRM Control
The ASUS Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry and ensures ultra-smooth power delivery to the CPU.
Intelligent AI Solutions
AI Overclocking
Maximised CPU performance, and predictions for ideal CPU and cooling settings, pushing your system to its limits.
Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.
AI Cooling II
Optimised thermals, and reduced noise via dynamic adjustment of fan speeds, based on CPU temperatures.
AI Cooling II balances the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. A proprietary ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then it monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
AI Networking II
Optimised network performance, helping to ensure seamless connectivity and maximised WiFi 7 speeds.
Traffic Monitor
Armoury Crate's Traffic Monitor tracks your current Wi-Fi channel usage. Move to a less congested channel by clicking the "Channel Switch" button (The Channel Switch function requires pairing with an ASUS router. If not paired with an ASUS router, the channel change process can be performed in the “Router IP" section of the Traffic Monitor.).
Fast Check
Armoury Crate's Fast Check empowers users to rapidly detect WiFi signal strength.
Direction Finder
Armoury Crate's Direction Finder (The Direction Finder is only compatible with connections in the 5GHz and 6GHz bands) helps users detect the optimal antenna orientation for achieving the best WiFi signal strength.
CreationFirst
CreationFirst is a network-optimisation application, integrated into ProArt Creator Hub, offering five network modes to optimise bandwidth efficiency for different tasks.
Performance Boost
Dynamic OC Switcher
Dynamic OC Switcher maximises CPU performance by letting you set current and temperature thresholds to automatically switch between a manual overlock for heavy multithreaded workloads and Precision Boost Overdrive for single-threaded tasks. The new Overclocking Load Guard also has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking.
Example:
If a user sets thresholds for current and temperature as shown, once CPU current exceeds 35A, the manual overclock engages until the temperature reaches 80°. At all other times, Precision Boost Overdrive will be used.
Core Flex
Core Flex empowers you to smash limits farther than ever before by letting you control power and thermals in creative new ways. In its simplest form, you can let your system run unrestricted during lighter loads and set breakpoints to gradually reduce power consumption as temperature increases. But the system is extremely adaptable, supporting multiple user-controlled functions that can manipulate parameters independently so that you can bend CPU performance to your will.
Examples:
EDC
By managing the Electrical Design Current (EDC) in tandem with the total current, this feature can provide extra performance for short, demanding bursts.
During lightly-threaded workloads below 35 amps, the Level 1 EDC in this scenario could be set to a low value. In this case, 60 amps.
As more cores are needed, the EDC is set to 120 MHz, which is found here to be the sweet spot for performance.
Once this CPU passed 70 amps, it was in multi-threaded territory, where it was found that a high EDC of 250 MHz gave optimal performance.
PPT
In order to let the CPU cool off if its temperatures go too high, this user constrains the Package Power Target (PPT) when thermals increase. Specifically, the short-term value (“Fast”) is used.
Until the CPU reaches 70° C , it can run at full performance, so 350 watts is set to give plenty of overhead.
At that point, the power limit reduces to 220 watts, to let the CPU start reducing heat.
If it is still under sustained load and keeps getting hotter, then a more stringent 165 watts PPT is set at 85° C.
PBO Enhancement
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance. By aggressively tuning PBO parameters, this AMD algorithm can leverage the motherboard’s robust power solution to ramp up performance even higher.
Memory
The ProArt X870E-Creator WiFi enhances DDR5 performance by providing overclocking options that would otherwise be locked, whether you are dealing with high-speed or entry-level memory modules.
DDR5 Strength
For those who want to fly past stock DDR5 speeds (Memory overclocking may vary between CPU series. Please refer to the spec table for detailed information.), the ProArt X870E-Creator WiFi is ready for enthusiast-grade kits, courtesy of vast AMD EXtended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support. Seasoned veterans can further tweak performance via an extensive array of settings in the UEFI.
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP)
This exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules automatically detects the memory chips on your kit and then presents optimised frequency, timing and voltage profiles that you can effortlessly apply to unleash performance.

M.2 Q-Release
The M.2 heatsink features a convenient switch to quickly remove it, eliminating the need for tiny screws during SSD installation. Its strong locking mechanism also provides a snug contact surface, helping to ensure reliable heat dissipation for your SSD.
New M.2 Q-Latch
The innovative ASUS Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools or screws. This design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly detach it with one tap.
