Dependable Stability
Advanced Hardware Safeguards
Industry-leading 5X Protection II employs the finest components, excellent
circuit design, and exacting standards to guarantee quality and long-term
durability of your motherboard with all-round protection. For you, that means
exceptional protection and stability for your build — the result of decades of
engineering experience from the world's leading motherboard brand.
LANGuard
Pumped-up throughput. 2.5X higher surge tolerance.
ASUS LANGuard is hardware-level networking protection that employs
signal-coupling technology and premium anti-EMI surface-mounted capacitors
ensuring a more reliable connection and better throughput, plus
electrostatically-guarded and surge-protected components for greater tolerance
to static electricity and improved protection against surges.
ESD Guards
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can happen suddenly, and its damaging effects
are easily underestimated. ASUS ESD Guards are tested to very high standards,
capable of up to +/- 10kV for air discharge and +/-6kV for contact discharge. We
employ an active protective circuit design to guard your system against
electrostatic interference and damage, providing greater component
longevity.
LAN port
ESD TVS diode protection on the LAN circuit.
USB connectors
TVS diodes for surface-mount and dual-inline packages.
VGA connectors
Additional on-circuit ESD TVS diodes to protect D-Sub functionality.
Keyboard and mouse connectors
Additional on-circuit ESD transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diodes.
DRAM Overcurrent Protection
Short-circuit damage prevention
Onboard resettable fuses prevent overcurrent and short-circuit damage. This
extends beyond I/O ports to DRAM to safeguard the lifespan of both your system
and connected devices.
DIGI+ VRM
Precision control for stable power
ASUS-exclusive DIGI+ VRM intelligently delivers power to the processor based
on real-time demands, reducing energy waste and improving system stability.
Stainless-Steel Back I/O
3X corrosion-resistance for greater durability
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel back I/O panels bonded with chromium
oxide have a lifespan that's three times (3X) longer than ordinary panels.
Superb Performance
DDR4 Support
Make your memory go faster With DDR4, you'll accelerate memory frequencies up
to an incredible to 2133MHz! And ASUS works with almost every DDR4 memory
vendor, so you're assured the best compatibility.
Enjoy the DDR4 benefits with ASUS 100 series. (DDR4 vs
