1-2 Chapter 1: Product Introduction
1.3 Special features
1.3.1 ROG intelligent Performance & Overclocking features
Crosslinx
Crosslinx is a unique technology utilizing a dedicated special graphics controller to
optimize PCIe allocation with x16, x8, x8 lanes. Such architecture eliminates the x4
bottleneck found on competing x16, x16, x4 solutions. Hence, the Crosslinx is able
to provide faster graphics performance.
Fusion Block System
The Fusion Block System is a more efcient thermal solution compared to
competing followers with complicated looks. It is a hybrid thermal design that
combines the ROG’s renowned heatpipe design with the additional ability to
connect to a water cooling system. By taking the entire integrated solution into
design considerations, the user can enjoy exceptional thermal improvement to
Northbridge, Southbridge, Crosslinx, and even VRM with a single connection. The
Fusion Block System is the most versatile, efcient, and advanced thermal system
there is on a motherboard.
Component Overheat Protection -EX (COP EX)
The COP EX allows overclockers to increase chipset voltages without the worries
of overheating. It can also be used to monitor and save an overheating GPU.
The COP EX allows more freedom and less constraint for maximum performance
achievement.
Frequency LED
Worried that no one knows when you’ve overclocked your system to the max? Let
the motherboard do the talking! The onboard Frequency LED highlights when your
system is under extreme overclocking or normal states � allowing you to show off
your O.C. skills.
Voltiminder LED
In the persuit of extreme performance, overvoltage adjustment is critical but risky.
Acting as the “red zone” of a tachometer, the Voltiminder LED displays the voltage
status for CPU, NB, SB, and Memory in a intuitive color-coded fashion. The
Voltiminder LED allows quick voltage monitoring for overclockers. See pages 2-1
to 2-3 for details.
