1.1.2ROG Gaming Features

SupremeFX

ROG-exclusive SupremeFX audio technology has been re-engineered using a new and unique circuit design. It offers 8-channel HD audio that’s equal in power, clarity, and range to dedicated sound cards.

We achieve near-lossless audio quality with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 112dB via use of multi-approach shielding. First, Red Line Shielding isolates audio hardware from the rest of the board to block cross-component interference. It is then added to by a special metallic cover placed over the SupremeFX chip to deflect EMI. These result in pristine sound and a highly attractive look for the motherboard in keeping with ROG style.

A Japan-made premium ELNA capacitor ensures warm natural sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity for all your gaming and multimedia. This is the first-ever onboard sound capable of true audiophile-grade performance, set to revolutionize the way you hear games, movies, music, and even other people via chat. Discover a whole new dimension of superior audio and get ready to rule.

Sonic Radar

Sonic awareness can make or break online combat, so we’ve developed a stealthy overlay that shows you what opponents and teammates are up to. Gunshots, footsteps, and call outs appear with precise directioning on the on-screen radar, which gives you the advantage of better intelligence and avoiding sneaky opponent surprises. Even snipers can’t get away that easy!

GameFirst II

Offering powerful, yet easy-to-use network control, ROG GameFirst II with cFos Traffic Shaping technology is revamped with a more intuitive ROG user interface. Featuring both an exclusive EZ Mode for beginners to setup and Advanced Mode for professional users to tweak, it means whatever your PC does in the background; your fragging will always come first!

Intel Gigabit LAN

The LAN solution from Intel has been long known to have a better throughput, lower CPU utilization as well as better stability. With the Intel Gigabit LAN solutions onboard, the ultimate network experience can therefore be delivered to its users like never before.
