Premium power delivery
The motherboard uses a powerful 14+2+1 phase power design with integrated 80A Dr.MOS stages for VCore and SOC, ensuring a stable power supply even during demanding processor overclocking. Compared to traditional discrete MOSFETs, the advanced Dr.MOS technology provides higher current capacity for each phase, resulting in better thermal management and higher performance. The Hi-Density power connectors are built to withstand higher currents than standard CPU and ATX connectors, minimising the risk of overheating. The board includes 20K capacitors with a capacity of 1000µF and a lifespan of 20000 hours, which provide higher charge accumulation, lower voltage ripple and a more stable output current.
DDR5 memory with support for up to 8000+MHz and EXPO profiles
The board supports Dual Channel DDR5 technology with four DIMM slots, allowing for the installation of up to 256GB of system memory. With support for Intel XMP and AMD EXPO profiles, you can easily use preset profiles for memory overclocking up to 8000+MHz (OC) without complex manual adjustments. The eight-layer PCB design ensures stable signal paths and power planes, leading to lower operating temperatures, higher energy efficiency, and a more reliable system for demanding applications and games. Both ECC and non-ECC, un-buffered memory modules are fully supported for maximum flexibility.
Ultra-fast storage with PCIe Gen5 and Gen4 M.2 slots
The motherboard offers three M.2 slots for the latest NVMe SSDs – one Blazing M.2 slot (M2_1) supports the PCIe Gen5 x4 standard with transfer speeds of up to 128Gb/s, which is double the performance of the previous generation. Two additional Hyper M.2 slots (M2_2 and M2_3) support PCIe Gen4 x4 with 64Gb/s transfer speeds. All M.2 slots are equipped with aluminium heatsinks with screwless mounting and bottom heatsinks that dissipate heat through the PCB. For additional storage, there are four SATA III 6.0Gb/s connectors with support for RAID 0, 1, and 10 configurations.
Connectivity, cooling and audio
The motherboard is equipped with two USB4 Type-C ports on the rear panel with transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s and support for USB PD 3.0 (15W), plus a front USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C connector with 20Gb/s speed. Network connectivity is provided by a Realtek RTL8125BG controller with 2.5Gb/s throughput and a Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) wireless module with support for Bluetooth 5.4, 2x2 MIMO technology and 2.4/5/6GHz bands. The board is fitted with six 4-pin PWM fan connectors and one connector for an AIO pump, which enable automatic detection of DC/PWM mode and temperature-based speed regulation. A thermistor for more accurate temperature measurement is also included. The audio section uses a Realtek ALC4082 codec with a 7.1 channel configuration, separate PCB layers for the left and right channels, support for headphones with an impedance of up to 600Ω and an S/PDIF optical output.

Choosing a motherboard
When choosing a motherboard, it’s important to pay close attention to the socket type, form factor and chipset. These parameters are among the most crucial and ensure the board’s compatibility with the processor, expansion cards and other components. The specific socket determines your choice of processor, while the remaining connectors dictate which other components you'll need for your future PC.Specifications
