All you need for maximum productivity
Thunderbolt™ 4 ports (USB4® compliant)
Get immersed in your creations with two Thunderbolt™ 4 ports connect to all your content creation gadgets and enable up to 40 Gbps bi-directional data transfers. To further push your creative work with one 8K or two 4K color-accurate monitors, you can connect your discrete graphics card to the onboard DisplayPort™-in port at the back I/O and direct the video output via the Thunderbolt™ 4 port.
Step 1
Use the bundled DisplayPort™ cable to connect the DisplayPort™ output on a discrete graphics card to the DisplayPort™ IN 1 port on the motherboard.
Step 2
Use a video-capable USB Type-C® cable to connect a monitor with a USB Type-C® port to the left-hand USB port on the rear of the motherboard.
40 Gbps Bi-directional bandwidth
DisplayPort™ 1.4 Supports one 8K or dual 4K displays
Daisy-chain Up to five devices
15 W Charging
Ultrafast networking
Wi-Fi 6E
Onboard Wi-Fi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band, providing up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds along with improved capacity and better performance in dense wireless environments.
10 Gb & 2.5 Gb Ethernet
Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for 2.5 Gb internet streaming or uploading and 10 Gb for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data organization and security.
* Wi-Fi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
PCIe® 5.0 expansion slots
Both of the x16 expansion slots have the PCIe® 5.0 treatment to offer incredible speeds up to 64 GB/s for compatible devices. To bear the brunt of massive graphics cards, they are also protected with SafeSlot retention brackets, and the top slot can be released easily thanks to the Q-Release button.
Ultrafast M.2 Storage
Four PCIe® 4.0 M.2 slots support up to 22110 and provide NVMe® SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe® 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data transfer speeds.
Quick charging your USB devices
USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C® front-panel connector with Quick Charge 4+
USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 boosts data transfers with speeds of up to 20 Gbps. This header also features Quick Charge 4+ technology that can quickly charge your pen display, tablet or mobile phone up to 60 watts by using a PCIe® power supply cable plugged into the nearby 6-pin connector.
The core of your powerful workstation
Robust power design
16+1 teamed power stages
Rated for 70 amps and combining high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into a single package, these stages deliver power and efficiency tailored for the latest 13th & 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors.
Digi+ power control
The ASUS Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry and ensures ultra-smooth power delivery to the CPU.
ProCool II power connector
Built to tight specifications to ensure flush contact with PSU power lines. The resulting lower impedance helps to prevent hotspots and connector failure.
Chokes & capacitors
Superior alloy chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, providing a higher level of performance than the industry standard.
Performance boost
AI Overclocking
Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.
Memory
The ProArt X670E-Creator WiFi enhances DDR5 performance by providing overclocking options that would otherwise be locked, whether you’re dealing with high-speed or entry-level memory modules.
Unleash DDR5 with AEMP II
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile II is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules. AEMP II is based on a CPU and memory module’s ability to train the memory chips on your kit, and it presents an optimized clock speed that can effortlessly unleash performance.
Built through a flexible training method, AEMP II makes it easy to not only tune the memory above baseline settings but also maintain the stability of system operation, whether getting the most out of an entry-level module or priming a high-speed kit for ultimate performance.
Results may vary according to the capabilities of your CPU and memory modules.
The comparison chart is based on a test with an Intel® i9-13900K processor and 2x16 GB SK Hynix DDR5-4800 non-ECC UDIMMs, model HMCG78MEBUA081N.
Please ensure all memory modules are from a single validated kit. Do not combine DIMMs from multiple kits — even if they are the same make and model. Mixing and matching DIMMs can result in failure to boot, and compatibility cannot be guaranteed.
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimal compatibility, ASUS recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or date code (D/C) from the same vendor. Check with your retailer to get the correct memory modules.
Self-adaptive fan tuning
AI Cooling II balances the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. A proprietary ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then it monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
Everything you need to optimize workflow
Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation
As working from home becomes the new normal, clear online communication is more critical than ever. Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation is an audio utility that leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone* and incoming audio. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks and other ambient noises are smartly pared back so your calls and video conferences with partners and clients are crystal clear.
* An audio splitter (3.5 mm audio jack Y-cable) is necessary when using a 3.5 mm headset.
