New ASUS P9X79 Motherboards New Tech Gear you up with Control Insight You’re due for a new PC, and we have the motherboards to make that build really irresistible C ontrol is very important in a motherboard, and DIY experts always look for boards that put power in your hands. Better control means improved tuning, which in turn opens up overclocking possibilities. ASUS' new P9X79 motherboards cover many aspects of control. With extensive overclocking features for both the CPU and DRAM, they provide the finest computing experience, made even more effortless by the intuitive UEFI BIOS and one-click SSD Caching system boost. Added levels of control and tuning The P9X79’s give you control opportunities in every way, featuring the most detailed and considerate design of any X79 motherboard. Here are some of the highlights you should keep in mind: Triple digital power controls: ASUS has embedded New DIGI+ Power Control CPU and DRAM digital voltage controllers on the board, two for the DRAM, and one for the CPU. You can use these to adjust voltages and switching frequencies for different overclocking scenarios. New DRAM tuning possibilities allow you to make the most of DDR3 memory for ultimate performance with VCCSA load line calibration and 30% more DRAM current capacity. Overclocking the memory is easier than ever before, plus it can be pushed further for faster performance. All of these features can be accessed via UEFI BIOS to ensure complete control, while digital power conversion and fast voltage sensing equate with greater Vcore stability. Easy BIOS control: ASUS has updated the exclusive UEFI BIOS with new features.
