Performance
OVERCLOCKING
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 Glacial 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.

Performance
MEMORY
SERVER-GRADE DRAM ENHANCEMENT
Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits can be driven far beyond the 9 GT/s mark on the ROG Crosshair X870E Glacial*.

The ROG Crosshair X870E Glacial lets you overclock memory up to 8600+ MT/s.

DIMM Fit / DIMM Fit Pro
DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyzes individual memory modules to optimize performance and pinpoint potential issues; whereas DIMM Fit Pro is an advanced option that provides more extensive customizability for memory optimization.

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.
