Features of the ASUS ROG Maximus XIII Extreme motherboard

smart motherboard
Intelligent software solutions help ensure that your system performs at its best. ASUS’ latest AI-powered optimizations span four pillars of performance, including overclocking, cooling, networking, and onboard audio, making advanced tweaks and optimizations accessible to new recruits and seasoned PC pros alike.

AI Overclocking
Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever. ASUS AI Overclocking profiles CPU and cooling to predict optimal configuration and push each system to its limits.

AI cool
Balance temperatures and acoustics of any device with a single click. ASUS’ proprietary algorithm reduces unnecessary system noise by monitoring CPU temperatures and dynamically adjusting fans to optimal speeds.

artificial intelligence networks
GameFirst VI technology optimizes network performance through real-time bandwidth allocation based on application usage scenarios and corresponding learning algorithms.

Two-way AI noise cancellation
This tool makes use of a massive deep learning database to reduce over 500 million types of background noise from incoming or outgoing audio, helping to ensure crystal clear communication in games or calls.

performance
ROG Maximus XIII Extreme is engineered for uncompromising performance. With its intelligent VRM design rated for 100A, high-quality components, and optimized memory layout, it easily handles the overclocking demands of Intel Rocket Lake CPUs.

cooling
ASUS ROG Maximus XIII Extreme features a large VRM and chipset cooling assembly, plus M.2 heatsinks combined with rear panel blocks to pull heat away from core components. This solid foundation is backed by free headers for fans, AIOs and liquid loops, paired with flexible control options that allow you to build the ultimate high-performance, silent, water-cooled platform.

Connection
Advanced connectivity features including WiFi 6E and two Ethernet ports provide all the bandwidth you need for smooth online and LAN gaming. File transfers and load times are also boosted with Thunderbolt™ 4 USB-C® technology. There’s also a built-in SupremeFX sound system for excellent, rich sound.

to improve
ASUS ROG Maximus XIII Extreme motherboard provides the tools to quickly and easily optimize your system. For those who enjoy total control, the UEFI BIOS and 5-Way Optimization provide advanced customization options so you can tweak every aspect of your system.

Personalize
In addition to exceptional performance, ASUS ROG Maximus XIII Extreme motherboard offers extensive design and customization options to let you build a system that truly stands out.
