• AI Cooling II - Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click.

• Dynamic OC Switcher - Dynamic OC Switcher maximizes 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 latest Overclocking Load Guard has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking.
• Core Flex - Core Flex empowers you to smash limits farther than ever before by letting you control clock, power, and thermals in creative new ways.
• Asynchronous Clock - For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Crosshair X870E Apex features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, PCIe, and the Infinity Fabric speed.
• PBO Enhancement - AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance.
• Overclocker’s Toolkit - The ROG Overclocker’s Tooklit is a powerful set of hardware-level controls to enhance your overclocking experience. Some are quick and easy time savers, while others offer masterful functionality to help you smash benchmarks and break records.

• DDR5 Domination - Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits can be driven far beyond the 9 GT/s mark on the ROG Crosshair X870E Extreme.
• NitroPath DRAM Technology - Frequency up to 400 MT/s higher. Slot retention force enhanced by 57%
• AEMP - ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules.

• 8 + 8-pin ProCool II power connectors - Dual ProCool connectors ensure a snug and reliable connection to the EPS 12V power lines.
• 20+2+2 power stages - The VRM features 20+2+2 power stages, each rated to handle up to 110 amps
• 10K black metallic capacitors - Input and output filtering is provided by solid-polymer capacitors rated for high operating temperatures.
• MicroFine alloy chokes - Each power stage is accompanied by a high-permeability alloy-core choke rated to handle 45 amps.

• VRM heatsink array - VRM heatsinks on the MOSFETs and chokes are connected by an embedded heatpipe to increase mass and surface area for dissipation.
• High-conductivity thermal pads - Each thermal pad improves overall heat transfer from the system by bridging the heat generated by the power stages to the heatsink
• 3D VC M.2 Heatsink - The 3D vapor chamber M.2 heatsink offers a larger heat dissipation area, connected to extended heat pipes through a temperature equalization plate to form a vacuum chamber, significantly improving cooling for PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSDs.
• 3D VC M.2 Heatsink - The 3D vapor chamber M.2 heatsink offers a larger heat dissipation area, connected to extended heat pipes through a temperature equalization plate to form a vacuum chamber, significantly improving cooling for PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSDs.
• Chipset heatsink - A dedicated heatsink draws heat away from the chipset to maintain optimum operating temperature.

• Multiple temperature sources - Each header can be set to monitor and react to user-configurable thermal sensors for workload-based cooling, and all settings can be easily managed by Fan Xpert 4 or UEFI.
• 4-pin fan headers - Every onboard header supports auto-detection of DC or PWM fans.
