TOUGH INSIDE AND OUT
 
Innovative and Creative
 
Designed Tough. Built to last
 
A mark of new era. With the next era of technological progress, we challenged ourselves to evolve into bringing a completely new design language to TUF line of motherboards. By harnessing our best technology paramount design credentials, SABERTOOTH Z170 MARK 1 envisions futuristic fighting forces, with sleek, stealthy Thermal Armor reimagined in black and metal greyto make a powerful statement of both high style and extreme strength.
 
Detachable Metal Tuf Badge
 
Forged with singular steel construction, a strong metal that channels courage - a symbol of your true being and everything you stand for.
 
 
QLED Indicators
 
With a design Inspired by an armored cockpit, see the power and act on the alerts, with a clear indication of five key boot actions.
 
ULTIMATE COOLING
 
Thermal Armor
 
Strengthen your ability. Totally boosted airflow.
 
TUF Thermal Armor is more than a futuristic shield: it employs dual fans to provide maximum airflow and rapid cooling board-wide, and a new interior shunt design to boost air cooling to the M.2 slot. Reversible-airflow technology blows dust up and away from the heatsink VRM, while the exclusive flow-valve design controls the heat-pipe's air contact great for liquid-cooling setups.
 
 
 
The innovative design beneath the armor strengthens the PCIe slots to minimize the risk of damage.
 
TUF Fortifier
 
Improves rigidity and cooling behind the board
 
SABERTOOTH Z170 MARK 1 delivers great strength and cooling via exclusive TUF Fortifier. A reinforced backplate ensures that the motherboard doesn't buckle under the weight of heavy graphics cards and CPU coolers, minimizing the risk of damaged circuitry from bowing and bending. TUF Fortier even reduces internal temperatures by up to 13C an 18% improvement on the previous design!

TUF ICe
 
The total cooling commander
 
ASUS TUF engineers have forged TUF ICe, a dedicated processor that monitors onboard temperature sensors and fan speeds for ultra-accurate cooling whether you're adjusting settings manually or using the automatic one-click optimization via Thermal Radar 2 and TUF Detective 2.
 
 
 
Thermal Radar 2
 
Instant fan tuning. Complete system cooling
 
Thermal Radar 2 now has 13 fan connectors and is able to connect with TUF Detective 2 wirelessly for fan control via your smartphone or tablet. Moreover, multiple onboard sensors and the bundled thermistor cable let you monitor graphics card temperatures and other key components in real time, so you can adjust manually or optimize automatically with one click.
 
 
VGA
 
 
SABERTOOTH Z170 MARK 1 Thermal Radar 2's fan management has been expanded so now you can control fans on ASUS graphics cards, as well as multiple case fans!
 
Fan Control
 
 
With customizable settings for each fan, you can tune the Dust de-Fan technology to extend your motherboard's lifespan. Switch on your PC and Dust de-Fan briefly spins in reverse direction to disturb settled dust before switching to normal rotation to blow the dust out of the case. You can even monitor, manage and individually name and control your system's fans to create your perfect balance between quietness, cooling and performance.
 
Thermal Tuning
 
 
You can also choose to optimize the whole system's fan setup with a single click. Based on the characteristics of each fan connected to your motherboard, all fan profiles can be quickly optimized.
 
Thermal Status
 
 
With thermal-status reports showing CPU and graphics cards zone temperature in real-time, your system fan control can be as precise as you like! Additional CPU thermal assessment gauges temperature rises with increasing voltage, providing a benchmark to judge your CPU cooler's performance.
 
Recorder
 
 
Critical voltages, temperatures and fan speeds are recorded over time, so you can review your system's history and make informed judgments for improved operation.
 
Digi Power Control
 
 
DIGI+ Power control is one of the most essential motherboard designs, and TUF offers ultra-precise memory tuning in addition to extra-accurate CPU voltage control. Best in class power efficiency and stability reduces wasteful voltage discrepancies and provides a more stable CPU and memory setup.
 
TUF Detective 2
 
System management at your fingertips
 
A free companion app puts detailed system information and a user-friendly interface at your fingertips right on your smartphone or tablet. You're able to detect and diagnose errors and adjust your system operation with touchscreen ease. Moreover, you can control your fan and monitor your system wirelessly via the app. Your PC doesn't even need to be switched on for you to make use of the app!
 
 
24/7 DURABILITY
 
 
You demand 24/7 durability, so we've delivered! TUF motherboards undergo the industry's most-punishing tests to ensure they're ready for permanent duty in all scenarios. In our development labs we heat them, chill them, bend them, shock them and drop them so you know that your TUF motherboard is certified for 24/7 durability!
 
 
5 Years Warranty Guaranteed reliability
 
The service will follow the local standard and service policy.
 
TUF Defenders
 
Repel the Dust. Extend the lifespan
 
TUF design protects back I/O ports, expansion and memory slots, and prevents dust and other airborne particles from entering critical connectors. Dust Defenders guards against dust build up, helping your PC perform in an optimal and stable state for longer.
 
TUF Components
 
Certified for tough duty
 
TUF Alloy Chokes
 
13.6% Cooler for extra-unbeatable durability
 
 
TUF 10K Ti-Caps:
 
+20% temp. tolerance and 5X longer lifetime usage.
 
 
TUF MOSFETs:
 
military-grade certified MOSFETs with lower RDS(on)
 
 
Low RDS means more power efficient and will thus produce slightly less heat as a by-product of the MOSFET
 
 
 
TUF ESD Guards 2
 
2X Stronger ESD protection for extended component lifespan
 
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can happen suddenly, and its damaging effects are easily underestimated. TUF ESD Guards 2 technology is tested to standards that are 2X higher than industry standards and exclusive pin-level on specific rear IO connectors* testing is 30% higher than previous TUF standard, ensuring electrostatic discharges are properly grounded from all onboard connectivity and that means greater component longevity.
 
USB/LAN/DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort
 
Audio connectors
 
Capacitor protection on both front and back audio-output circuits.
 
LAN Port
 
ESD TVS diode protection on the LAN circuit bolstered by an anti-surge LAN connector that increases protection against extreme events, such as light-ning strikes.
 
HDMI/DP
 
Additional on-circuit ESD TVS diodes to protect HDMI and DP functionality.
 
ALL USB connectors
 
Add On-circuit transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diodes and capacitor protection for surface-mount and dual-inline packages.
 
HIGH-SPEED TRANSFER
 
Ultimate-speed 10Gb/s with USB 3.1 onboard
 
With one USB 3.1 Type-A port and one reversible USB 3.1 Type-C for the very fastest USB connections, you'll experience data-transfer speeds of up to 10Gbit/s or twice as fast USB 3.0. USB 3.1 is completely backward-compatible with your existing USB devices, and you'll be all set for USB 3.1's breakneck speeds. And ASUS-exclusive USB 3.1 Boost technology automatically accelerates USB 3.1 performance even further!
 
 
Evolve your storage speed with SATA Express
 
 
Speed up with onboard M.2 up to 32Gb/s
 
 
 
 
Turbo Lan
 
Turbo LAN with cFosSpeed traffic-shaping technology adds even more lag-reducing support and intuitive user interface. It allows you to lower lag with no expert knowledge by up to 1.45X! If you're a tweaker, use Advanced Mode for hardcore controls.
