Chapter 1: Product Introduction

The TUF Thermal Radar monitors temperatures in critical parts of the motherboard in real 

time, automatically adjusting fan speeds to make sure the system maintains high stability. 

It consists of multiple sensors, giving users the ability to track each individually. Automatic 

calculation of ideal fan speeds based on different parameters selected manually for 

components has everything cooler and longer-lasting. New Fan Overtime keeps the two 

turbo fans running a few minutes post shutdown on standby power to remove the remaining 

heat. Stopping high temperatures from lingering in the case where they can cause damage, 

it extends system longevity, dropping the heat by as much as 7

o

C in just ten minutes. To 

prolong fan lifespan, reduce noise, and lower power consumption, the new Fan Off has been 

added, automatically shutting off fans under either preset or manually-selected temperature 

thresholds.

New DIGI+ Power Control includes multiple digital voltage controllers, allowing extra precise 

modulation and tuning of CPU, iGPU, and DRAM. This innovative and industry-leading ASUS 

technology provides an extremely accurate voltage tuning for better efficiency, stability, and 

performance. With the next generation Intel VRD 12.5 future power design, CPU wattage can 

be decreased by half, creating a cooler and quieter PC. This innovation of industry-leading 

ASUS technology provides the smartest control for better power saving scenarios.

Get rugged performance even in the most challenging conditions with robust TUF chokes, 

solid capacitors, and MOSFETs – certified through third-party, military-grade testing. TUF 

Chokes, also known as the “Alloy Choke”, is made of a compound of various types of 

metal instead standard iron, enables the support of up to a massive 40A of rated current, 

25% higher than conventional component. Furthermore, the single piece packaging also 

eliminates the emission of vibration noise, delivering superb characteristics as well as 

durability under extreme conditions.

Dust particles and environmental contamination present a constant hazard to the optimal 

functioning of slots and connectors. Build up on contact points within slots compromises 

data transfer over time, negating the benefits of expensive and critical components such 

as graphics cards. Custom TUF design keeps this in mind with special shields that resist 

particulate entry, effectively extending slot and connector lifespan while promoting better 

performance.

MemOK! quickly ensures memory boot compatibility. This remarkable memory rescue tool 

requires a mere push of a button to patch memory issues. MemOK! determines fail-safe 

settings and dramatically improves your system boot success.
