Gen2 and Aura Sync RGB lighting
THE BOARD FOR EXTREME PERFORMANCE
Every aspect of the ROG Maximus X Apex purposefully defies
convention to break performance boundaries and set new standards. Its feature
set is carefully selected to optimize component layout and trace pathways for
maximum signal integrity. That foundation is backed by all the tools and
tweaking options you need to push the platform to the limit, and cooling
options to keep everything under control. With a distinct X-shaped PCB that's
accented by RGB lighting, and performance-first engineering, the Maximus X Apex
is suitable for elevating builds to showcase status, or satisfying overclocking
addicts that thrive on the edge.
RECORDS SMASHED
ROG Maximus X Apex is built to break records — and it's
already done just that. With its optimized layout and ability to withstand
cryogenic temperatures, Apex has already scored 9 global first-places and set a
CPU frequency world record* of 7.3GHz on all six cores of the Intel Core
i7-8700K. That's a staggering 97.3% overclock of the chip‘s default 3.7GHz
frequency!
OVERCLOCKER'S TOOLKIT
HARDWARE-LEVEL CONTROLS
ROG Maximus X Apex includes an overclocker's toolkit with
hardware-level controls to aid your overclocking experience. The motherboard's
Dual BIOS allows you to experiment with different firmware versions and provides
a path for recovery in case one becomes corrupt, and the onboard switch allows
you to easily change between the first and second BIOS. The overclocker's
toolkit also includes a Pause switch to halt the system, and four PCIe switches
for quick slot toggling. Other tools include Safe Boot and ReTry buttons, a LN2
mode jumper to aid POST at sub-zero temperatures, and a Slow mode switch.
Combined, they're quick and easy time-savers designed to help you break more
records.
CONDENSATION DETECTION
Specialized circuitry allows Maximus X Apex to detect when
condensation occurs on the back of the board. Divided into three distinct
sections — CPU, DRAM and PCIe — the feature provides a useful warning when an
area may be at risk of short-circuiting.
DDR4 OVERCLOCKING
ROG engineers adopted a two-slot memory design, enabling a
shorter trace layout for tighter control over impedance and reduced signal
interference. And it's teamed with ASUS OptiMem to preserve memory signal
integrity by routing traces and vias to the optimal PCB layer. Together, the
enhancements provide more headroom for overclocking and improved stability,
allowing Apex to achieve memory speeds of DDR4-4500MHz and beyond.
ASUS PRO CLOCK TECHNOLOGY WITH EXTREME ENGINE DIGI+
The dedicated base-clock (BCLK) generator designed for 8th
Generation Coreâ„¢ processors is what allowed Apex to set an overclocked BCLK
frequency record of 584MHz*. This custom solution works in tandem with the ASUS
TurboV Processing Unit (TPU) to enhance voltage and base-clock overclocking
control — providing an exciting new way to boost performance to extreme
heights. And, of course, Maximus X Apex includes Extreme Engine Digi+ — ROG's
revered digital power controller. With a Digi+ PWM controller, Texas Instruments
NexFETâ„¢ MOSFETs, MicroFine alloy chokes, and 10K black metallic capacitors,
Extreme Engine Digi+ technology delivers consistently stable power.
ROG DIMM.2
The innovative ROG DIMM.2 module is a vertically-installed
expansion card that allows two M.2 drives to be connected via a DDR4 interface.
You can then add a memory cooler, or a fan via the bundled mounting bracket to
direct cool air over the M.2 drives, helping to control thermals and ensure
maximum performance.
5-WAY OPTIMIZATION
One click takes care of all that complex tuning. ASUS 5-Way
Optimization makes your PC smart. It dynamically optimizes essential aspects of
the system, providing overclocking and cooling profiles that are tailored for
your rig.
FLEXIBLE COOLING CONTROLS FOR AIR OR LIQUID
With ROG Maximus X Apex, you have comprehensive control over
fans, water pumps and even all-in-one (AIO) coolers, via either Fan Xpert 4 or
our award-wining UEFI. Whether you're cooling with air or water, Auto-Tuning
mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There's also
an Extreme Quiet mode, which reduces all fan speeds to below the default
minimum – keeping your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks.
ONBOARD 5G ETHERNET
Designed for the demanding requirements of power users and
content creators who push the envelope, onboard 5Gbps Ethernet plugs you into a
new era of home networking. With up to 5X the bandwidth of standard gigabit
Ethernet, you'll enjoy streaming uncompressed 4K UHD videos and backups and
file transfers that are faster than ever before. And there's also support for
intermediate 2.5Gbps connectivity, allowing you to step up to faster networks
for maximum flexibility. Choose the bandwidth that meets your needs and enjoy
ultra-low latency at any speed.
OUTSHINE
THE COMPETITION
A well-tuned enthusiast system deserves a matching
aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of
functional presets for the built-in RGB LEDs, as well as strips connected to
the four onboard 4-pin RGB headers.* And it can all be synced with an
ever-growing portfolio of Aura Sync-enabled ASUS hardware.
ILLUMINATED CUSTOMIZABLE NAMEPLATE
Use the bundled DIY kit to customize your nameplate, then
see your personal mark illuminated with Aura Sync lighting!
X-SHAPED PCB
ROG Maximus X Apex has an asymmetrical X-shaped circuit
board with a radical lighting scheme that utilizes cutouts to create an
impressive backlighting effect.
SUPREMEFX
SHIELDED AUDIO, SUPERIOR SOUND
ROG Maximus X Apex's awesome SupremeFX audio technology
delivers an exceptional 113 dB signal-to-noise ratio on the line-in connection
for best-ever ROG recording quality! We've also added a low-dropout regulator
for cleaner power delivery to the SupremeFX S1220A codec. It all adds up to
audio that envelops you as never before!
