ASUS AI ADVISOR
Using AI technology to understand natural-language questions or scenario descriptions, ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.

ai OVERCLOCKING
ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits.

ai cOOLING II
Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click.

AI NETWORKING II
AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of WiFi 7*.

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.

Asynchronous Clock
For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Strix X870E-A Gaming WiFi7 Neo features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, PCIe, and the Infinity Fabric speed. Drive CPU performance to its absolute brink while maintaining the stability of related clock domains. Separate CPU BCLK from other domains for unfettered 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. In its simplest form, you can maximize base clock during lighter loads and set breakpoints to gradually reduce CPU core frequency as temperature or current increases. But the system is extremely adaptable, supporting multiple user-controlled functions that can manipulate power, current, and temperature limits independently so that you can bend CPU performance to your will.

PBO ENHANCEMENT
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance. By aggressively tuning the PBO parameters, AMD's algorithm can leverage the motherboard's robust power solution to ramp up performance even higher.

Performance
MEMORY
Server-Grade DRAM Enhancement
Thanks to an upgraded memory slot layout and PCB design, now enthusiast-grade kits can achieve 9 GT/s on the ROG Strix X870E-A Gaming WiFi7 Neo*.
*Achievable with advanced BIOS configuration and potentially specialized hardware. Results may vary according to system components.

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.
