SSD Speed with HDD Capacity 

Intel

®

 Smart Response Technology boosts overall system performance. It uses an installed 

fast SSD (min 18.6GB available capacity required) as a cache for frequently accessed data. 

Key benefits include reduced load and wait times, and lower power consumption through the 

elimination of unnecessary hard drive spin. This technology combines SSD performance with 

hard drive capacity, operating up to 4X faster than a hard drive-only system, and an important 

part of Green ASUS eco-friendly computing.

Your computer could receive web updates with fresh content for selected applications even 

when setting the system to sleep. This means less time waiting for applications to start, 

update and sync with the Cloud, providing a more efficient way.

Allows your computer to quickly resume from a low-power hibernate state in seconds. Saving 

system memory to the designed SSD provides your computer a faster wake-up response 

time, while keeping the energy use low.

Double USB Access, Double Convenience 

ASUS facilitates the strategic USB 3.0 accessibility for both the front and rear panel with 6 

USB 3.0 ports in total. Experience the latest plug & play connectivity at speeds up to 10 times 

faster than USB 2.0. The SABERTOOTH Z77 affords greater convenience to high speed 

connectivity. 

Extra Ports, Extra Speed and Accessibility 

The Intel

®

 Z77 Express Chipset natively supports the next-generation Serial ATA (SATA) 

interface, delivering up to 6.0 Gb/s data transfer. ASUS provides extra SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports 

with enhanced scalability, faster data retrieval, and double the bandwidth of current bus 

systems.

New generation Thermal Armor boosts cooling with dual turbo fans, enhancing the original 

TUF thermal design, and helping direct hot air away from components and the motherboard 

via smart shunt funneling. It covers the entire board with more powerful airflow, and uses 

special heat pipes to expedite thermal removal, and make sure temperatures stay low. The 

dedicated I/O cover fan draws additional cold air in, and expels even more heat for  improved 

stability, plus new Thermal Armor comes with special convection holes in the PCB to facilitate 

underside flow. It now sports a military-themed style, perfect for case modders.
