PERFORMANCE

ROG Strix Z370-I Gaming rocks core ROG features to help you max out all aspects of system performance, handing you the tools needed to realize your system's true potential.

DOUBLE DECKER HEATSINK

ROG Strix Z370-I Gaming has an innovative double-decker heatsink design that allows the M.2 SSD to be stacked atop of the PCH heat sink, which is then topped off with an additional metal heatsink for the M.2 drive. The two heatsinks are thermally isolated to prevent the PCH and M.2 from affecting each other. The double decker design not only cleverly maximizes the board space on miniITX board, but also dramatically improves heat dissipation, cooling the M.2 SSD by up to 20°C for better stability and enhanced gaming performance while featuring a stylish angular design to enhance the look of ROG Strix Z370-I Gaming builds.

5-WAY OPTIMIZATION

ONE-CLICK OVERCLOCK AND COOLING, DONE!

One click takes care of all that complex tuning. ASUS 5-Way Optimization makes your PC smart. It dynamically optimizes essential aspects of the system, providing overclocking and cooling profiles that are tailored for your rig.

· An automated tuning utility that optimizes overclocking and cooling profiles for your unique system configuration.
· Fans stay whisper-quiet for everyday computing, and deliver optimal airflow when the system is crunching through CPU or GPU-intensive tasks.
· All-new stress test that allows users to optimize and overclock for CPU or memory-centric workloads.

COOLER BY DESIGN

ROG Strix Z370-I Gaming features the most comprehensive cooling controls ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS:

• Multiple temperature sources

•  

• 4-pin PWM/DC fan

•  

• AIO Pump Fan

• Each header can be set to monitor and react to three user-configurable thermal sensors, for workload based cooling — all easily managed by Fan Xpert 4 or the media-acclaimed ASUS UEFI.

DDR4 OVERCLOCKING STRENGTH IN NUMBERS

ASUS OptiMem preserves memory signal integrity by routing memory traces and vias to the optimal PCB layer, and our T-Topology layout ensures time-aligned signaling by balancing trace lengths between memory slots. These enhancements lead to more headroom for overclocking and improved stability, allowing memory speeds of DDR4-4333 and beyond with all slots populated.

*A head-related transfer function is an audio algorithm derived from sound data recorded through a dummy head. Test tones are played from a spherical grid around the dummy head to obtain subtle changes in sounds that come from different directions. The results are combined into an algorithm that allows Sonic Studio's virtual surround to process sound true to life.
**Please note Sonic Studio Link is available only in version 3.6 and later.
