ASUS AI
INTELLIGENCE

AI OVERCLOCKING
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.

AI COOLING II
Balance 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 monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.

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 overclock 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 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. Maximize base clock during lighter loads and set breakpoints to reduce CPU core frequency as temperature or current increases. The system supports multiple user-controlled functions that can manipulate power, current, and temperature limits independently for customized CPU performance.

PBO ENHANCEMENT
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) increases CPU current and voltage for performance gains. Aggressively tuned PBO parameters leverage the motherboard’s power solution to enhance performance.


MEMORY
DDR5 DOMINATION
The Strix X870-I is primed for enthusiast-grade kits with support for AMD EXtended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO).

EMP
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules.

POWER SOLUTION
ROG STRIX ULTIMATE
POWER DESIGN
10+2+1 power phase design for improved stability and performance.


COOLING
M.2 AND CHIPSET HEATSINKS
The on-board M.2 slots and heatsinks are stacked over the chipset, with an embedded fan for cooling high-performance drives.

VRM HEATSINK
The VRM heatsink and L-shaped backplate extend over the rear I/O to maximize surface area, providing active cooling for AMD processors and maintaining clearance for large CPU coolers.

HIGH-CONDUCTIVITY THERMAL PADS
High-quality thermal pads improve heat transfer and reduce VRM operating temperatures.

CPU FAN HEADERS
A dedicated pair of PWM/DC fan headers provides easy access to CPU coolers.

AIO PUMP FAN HEADER
A dedicated PWM/DC header connects self-contained water-cooling setups.

4-PIN FAN HEADERS
The Strix X870-I features five chassis fan headers, each supporting auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.

LEADING CONNECTIVITY
ROG STRIX HIVE II
The ROG Hive II is an exclusive accessory designed to deliver user-friendly access to hardware and software features.

ROG FPS CARD
The ROG FPS card groups I/O onto a vertically-mounted card, saving valuable motherboard space and improving cable management.

WIFI 7
WiFi 7 is up to 4.8x faster than WiFi 6*, with support for 320 MHz channels** on the 6GHz band and 4K QAM*. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) enhances stability and reduces latency for gaming, streaming, and industrial IoT.

Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet
Onboard Intel® 2.5Gb Ethernet provides faster wired connections for gaming, streaming, and data transfers, with speeds 2.5 times faster than standard Ethernet connections.
