ASUS AI ADVISOR
ASUS AI Advisor is an ASUS technical expert that's always available to answer your questions. Owners of compatible ASUS motherboards can interact with this AI-powered technology using natural language to learn more about their hardware. For DIY beginners, it can provide easy-to understand explanations of one-click optimization features like AI Overclocking and AI Cooling II, and for seasoned PC-building veterans, it can offer guidance and instructions on the latest features offered by ASUS.
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.
Traffic Monitor
Armoury Crate's Traffic Monitor tracks your current WiFi channel usage. Move to a less congested channel by clicking the “Channel Switch” button* for improved network performance.
*The "Channel Switch" function requires pairing with an ASUS router. If not paired with an ASUS router, the channel change process can be performed in the "Router IP" section of the Traffic Monitor.
Fast Check
Armoury Crate’s Fast Check empowers users to rapidly detect WiFi signal strength
Direction Finder
Armoury Crate's Direction Finder* helps users detect the optimal antenna orientation for achieving the best WiFi signal strength.
Gamefirst
GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate for an even better user experience. GameFirst optimizes networking performance by allocating bandwidth in real time, based on intelligent algorithms designed for various application customizable usage scenarios and corresponding learning algorithms. The latest update includes dedicated support for NVIDIA GeForce NOW to ensure the lowest latency possible during intense game streamingcloud gaming sessions. To provide a better user's experience, GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate.
PCIE SLOT Q-RELEASE SLIM
With PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim, simply tilt the card toward the latching mechanism to automatically unlock it from the PCIe slot. This makes upgrades and maintenance easier than ever before. Users will no longer need to fiddle with a tricky latch or even press a button to release their graphics card from the slot.
M.2 Q-RELEASE
The M.2 heatsink features a convenient switch* to quickly remove it, eliminating the need for tiny screws during SSD installation. Its strong locking mechanism also provides a snug contact surface, helping to ensure reliable heat dissipation for your SSD.
*Switch may be a lever or button, depending on motherboard model.
NEW M.2 Q-LATCH
The new Q-Latch design allows for tool-free installation or removal of M.2 SSDs with just one press.
