• Server-grade IPMI remote management and onboard BMC: Hardware- and software-level management with a dedicated LAN port link to an onboard AST2600 BMC controller, plus ASUS Control Center Express software for real-time monitoring and management

• USB Port Management – Enable or disable the USB port, or set it to Read Only to prevent data leaks.
• Software Blacklist  – For added security, a software blacklist is available to help prevent the use of high-risk applications.
• Registry Editor On/Off  – Remotely disable the Registry Editor on client devices to prevent unauthorized changes to system configurations.

• Eight-Layer PCB Design – This enhances quick heat dissipation around the voltage regulators for enhanced stability and overclocking.
• ProCool II Connectors – These are built to tight specifications to ensure flush contact with PSU power lines. The resulting lower impedance helps to prevent hotspots and connector failure.
• Superior Chokes & Capacitors – These are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, providing a higher level of performance than the industry standard.
• Digi+ VRM 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.

• 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. DIMM Fit Pro gives advanced PC builders more extensive customizability for memory tuning. It allows users to control up to twenty overclocking parameters, define testing ranges, and prioritize stability or performance, offering a more flexible and granular approach to memory optimization.
• AEMP III – ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory. Through a two-phase comprehensive tuning process, AEMP III first optimizes the clock driver and then the memory frequency. This results in the best balance between performance and stability, even at cutting-edge speeds of DDR5-8000 or higher.

• AI Overclocking – Maximized CPU performance and predictions for ideal CPU and cooling settings push your system to its limits.
• AI Cooling II – Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click.
• 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.

• PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim – The new design of Q-release Slim allows users to remove the graphics card by tilting the card in its slot. This design also keeps the original method of removing the graphics card by pushing down on the retention clip.
• M.2 Q-Latch
• The innovative ASUS Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools or screws. This design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly detach it with one tap.
• ASUS DriverHub
• ASUS DriverHub streamlines the installation and management of ASUS drivers and utilities to keep your hardware up-to-date and perform optimally. This standalone application automatically detects current driver versions and presents available updates in a list view. Users are invited to install ASUS DriverHub after OS installation.
