Why choose when you can have both?
SLI or CrossFireX? Fret no longer because with the ROG Maximus III
Formula, you´ll be able to run both multi-GPU setups. The board
features SLI/CrossFireX on Demand technology, supporting SLI or
CrossFireX configuration. Whichever path you take, you can be assured
of jaw-dropping graphics at a level previously unseen.
Memory Feature
Dual-Channel, DDR3 2133(O.C.) MHz
The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates
of 2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333/1066 MHz to meet the
higher bandwidth requirements of the latest operation system, 3D
graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR3
architecture double the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system
performance.
ROG Exclusive Features
ROG Connect
Plug and Overclock - Tweak it the hardcore way!
Monitor the status of your desktop PC and tweak its parameters in
real-time via a notebook—just like a race car engineer—with ROG
Connect. ROG Connect links your main system to a notebook through a USB
cable, allowing you to view real-time POST code and hardware status
readouts on your notebook, as well as make on-the-fly parameter
adjustments at a purely hardware level.
MemPerfect
Optimize your memory without lifting a finger!
Why risk crippling your system with poorly tuned memory? Now, with
ROG´s exclusive MemPerfect optimizing your memory performance is
a simple matter of selecting the frequency you desire, and letting
MemPerfect do the rest! MemPerfect quickly checks your memory settings
for errors and automatically fixes them—ensuring system stability and
maximum efficiency.
iROG
Intelligent multiple control at hand
The iROG is a special IC which enables several ROG highlitghted
functions that gives users full disposal of the motherboard at any
stage! This design allows advanced user control and management to be
processed purely at a hardware level. iROG greatly increases fun during
overclocking for PC enthusiasts and it offers system maintainence and
management with more control and efficiency.
MemOK!
Any memory is A-OK!
Memory compatibility is among the top concerns when it comes to
computer upgrades. Worry no more, MemOK! is the fastest memory booting
solution today. This remarkable memory rescue tool requires nothing but
a push of a button to patch memory issues and get your system up and
running in no time. The technology is able to determine failsafe
settings that can dramatically improve system booting success.
ProbeIt
Get all hands-on with hardware-based overclocking
ProbeIt takes the guesswork out of locating the motherboard´s
measurement points, identifying them clearly in the form of 5 sets of
detection points so you´ll know exactly where to get quick yet
accurate readings using a multitester.
COP EX
Maximum OC with confidence with burn proof protection to chipsets and
GPU!
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.
GameFirst
The speed you need to pwn
Low Internet latency allows you to frag more, and get fragged less.
That´s why ROG has introduced GameFirst, a feature that manages
the flow of traffic according to your needs so that you can still
listen to online music, download and upload files, and engage in
Internet chats without sacrificing the low ping times you need to pwn
your opponents.
Speeding HDD
Wait less. Play more!
Double your hard disk drive performance easily and affordably with
Speeding HDD, a remarkable ROG feature that utilizes a dual channel
design to enhance HDD transfer rates. Wait less, play more!
CPU Level Up
A Simple click for instant upgrade
Ever wish that you could have a more expansive CPU? Upgrade your CPU at
no additional cost with ROG´s CPU Level Up! Simply pick the
processor you wanted to OC to, and the motherboard will do the rest!
See the new CPU speed and enjoy that performance instantly.
Overclocking is never as easy as this.
Extreme Tweaker
One stop performance tuning shop
Extreme Tweakers is the one stop shop to fine-tune your system to
optimal performance. No matter if you´re looking for frequency
adjustment, over-voltage options, or memory timing settings,
they´re all here!
Voltiminder LED
Friendly reminder on Voltage Settings
In the pursuit 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, PCH, and Memory in
a intuitive color-coded fashion. The voltiminder LED allows quick
voltage monitoring for overclockers.
Loadline Calibration
Optimal power boost for extreme CPU overclocking!
Maintaining ample voltage support for the CPU is critical during
overclocking. The Loadline Calibration ensures stable and optimal CPU
voltage under heavy loading. It helps overclockers enjoy the
motherboard´s ultimate OC capabilities and benchmark scores.
