Using the ROG SupremeFX S1220 8-channel HD audio codec, the Maximus XI Code can support audio with higher fidelity than standard controllers. Audio can also be output using the integrated five 3.5mm audio outputs or S/PDIF output. This motherboard is also equipped with features such as AI Overclocking, OptiMemII, support for Intel Optane memory, a TurboV Processing Unit (TPU), an Energy Processing Unit (EPU), Fan Xpert 4, Digi+ Power Control, Aura Sync, and more. This motherboard is protected by a limited 3-year warranty. General Features Thrilling Performance - With a dedicated onboard clock generator, support for the high-performance memory, and cooling options to keep thermals under tight control, the ROG Maximus XI Code provides a potent foundation for your next gaming build.
Power Performance - Built for Overclocking
- By default, all of Coffee Lake's major bus frequencies are derived from the same reference clock, limiting the control and flexibility needed to harness the full overclocking potential of the platform. The ROG Maximus XI Code features a dedicated onboard clock generator that supplies dynamic reference clocks to the CPU cores and major subdomains, giving you the freedom to coax more MHz of headroom from the system.
- DDR4 4400 MHz+
- Whether you're gunning for high memory frequencies or tuning timings for the low latency, ROG Maximus XI Code provides the tools you need to exploit the Coffee Lake architecture's full potential: carefully optimized trace pathways maintain signal integrity, and ROG firmware offers the necessary tweaks to ensure stability while maximizing memory performance. Load up with a high-density memory kit for heavy multitasking, or run a focused setup that delivers the bandwidth your favorite games and applications need.
- OptiMem II
- To provide Intel's CPUs unfettered access to memory bandwidth, ASUS has reimagined motherboard trace routing from the ground up. Their OptiMem II tech carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and also adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk. And to further enhance overclocking headroom for fully stacked memory configurations, they've employed a highly customized T-Topology layout that delivers time-aligned signaling.
Cooler by Design - Comprehensive Cooling Zone
- The ROG Maximus XI Code features comprehensive cooling controls, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.
Multiple Temperature Sources 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 UEFI.
Water Pump+ A dedicated header that can supply over 3A to high-performance PWM or DC water pumps.
4-Pin PWN/DC Fan Every onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans. W_PUMP+ and AIO PUMP are also PWM/DC controllable.
Fan Extension Header Allows expansion of three additional DC or PWM fan headers, plus three thermal-probe headers.
Smart Protection A dedicated integrated circuit that protects each fan header from over-temperature and over-current.
Water In/Out Allows for monitoring of temperature at the input/out of any component.
Water Flow Allows for constant monitoring of the flow rate of entire loop.
AIO Pump An All-In-One header that supports auto-detection of PWM, DC fans, and water pumps. Control Your Rig - Fast, intuitive control is vital for effective command of your rig, so ASUS has loaded the ROG Maximus XI Code with simple, flexible tools that let you tweak almost every aspect of the system. Enjoy intelligent automated tuning with 5-Way Optimization technology, or dive deep into the ROG UEFI BIOS to take full manual control. The ROG Maximus XI Code also makes short work of fine-tuning everything from audio to storage, so it's easy to get every park of your system up to speed.
Intelligent Control - AI Overclocking
- ASUS AI Overclocking makes automatic tuning faster and smarter than before. Available in Windows or directly through the UEFI BIOS, it profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration for each individual system.
CPU Potential ASUS created a proprietary algorithm that evaluates the capabilities of your processor.
Cooling Capability The onboard intelligence also watches systems vitals like temperatures, fan speeds, and power draw to gauge cooling performance.
AI Overclocking Utilizes onboard intelligence to perform automated clocking and provides target frequency and voltage estimations for veterans that prefer manual tuning. - 5-Way Optimization
- Take care of complex tuning with just one click. ASUS 5-Way Optimization is a system-wide tuning utility that overclocks the processor and tunes fan speeds to ensure the best balance between cooling and acoustics. The automated CPU tuning feature of 5-Way Optimization leverages the same onboard intelligence as AI Overclocking, but goes further by running a Prime95-based stress test to deliver a result that's well-tuned from the get-go.
TPU Insight The TurboV Processing Unit (TPU) Insight provides AI Suite 3 with the intelligence needed to automatically fine tune voltages, monitor system stats, and adjust overclocking.
EPU Guidance The Energy Processing Unit (EPU) Guidance enables system-wide power efficiency, automatically optimizing consumption to maximize savings.
Fan Xpert 4 Enjoy comprehensive control over fans, water pumps, and all-in-one (AIO) coolers via either Fan Expert 4 or ASUS' UEFI BIOS.
Digital Power Controls The Digi+ Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, switching frequency and power efficiency settings, allowing you to fine tune CPU voltage regulation for stability and performance.
Turbo App Intel's processors feature per-core tuning, and the ASUS Turbo app makes use of this feature by letting you assign applications to specific processor cores, prioritizing computing power where it's needed most. - UEFI Bios
- The ROG UEFI (BIOS) provides everything you need to configure, tweak, and tune your rig. It offers intelligently simplified options for newcomers to PC DIY, as well as comprehensive features for seasoned veterans.
