Overview
THE BOARD FOR EXTREME PERFORMANCE
Every aspect of the ROG Maximus X Apex purposefully defies convention to
break performance boundaries and set new standards. Its feature set is carefully
selected to optimize component layout and trace pathways for maximum signal
integrity. That foundation is backed by all the tools and tweaking options you
need to push the platform to the limit, and cooling options to keep everything
under control. With a distinct X-shaped PCB that's accented by RGB lighting, and
performance-first engineering, the Maximus X Apex is suitable for elevating
builds to showcase status, or satisfying overclocking addicts that thrive on the
edge.
BUILT TO BREAK LIMITS
RECORDS SMASHED
ROG Maximus X Apex is built to break records and it's already done just that.
With its optimized layout and ability to withstand cryogenic temperatures, Apex
has already scored 9 global first-places and set a CPU frequency world record*
of 7.3GHz on all six cores of the Intel Core i7-8700K. That's a staggering 97.3%
overclock of the chips default 3.7GHz frequency!
OVERCLOCKER'S TOOLKIT
HARDWARE-LEVEL CONTROLS
ROG Maximus X Apex includes an overclocker's toolkit with hardware-level
controls to aid your overclocking experience. The motherboard's Dual BIOS allows
you to experiment with different firmware versions and provides a path for
recovery in case one becomes corrupt, and the onboard switch allows you to
easily change between the first and second BIOS. The overclocker's toolkit also
includes a Pause switch to halt the system, and four PCIe switches for quick
slot toggling. Other tools include Safe Boot and ReTry buttons, a LN2 mode
jumper to aid POST at sub-zero temperatures, and a Slow mode switch. Combined,
they're quick and easy time-savers designed to help you break more records.
- QLED - Four LEDs to show the current boot status.
- SLOW MODE SWITCH* - Instantly reduces the CPU ratio to 8X
to bypass finicky benchmark passages.
- PAUSE SWITCH* - Activate to pause the system and
fine-tune OC parameters mid-benchmark.
- PCIE SWITCHES - Four switches to independently enable or
disable any of the four x16-length PCIe slots, for easy debugging.
- LN2 MODE JUMPER - Jumper to enable special options and
functions for liquid-nitrogen (LN2) overclocking.
- PROBEIT - Check the voltage via integrated measurement
points.
- RETRY BUTTON - One press instantly initiates a hard
reset.
- SAFE BOOT BUTTON - Instantly reset the PC and boot
directly into a safe mode.
- MEMOK! - Instantly retune memory settings for a
guaranteed boot.
- BIOS SWITCH (FOR DUAL BIOS) - Switch quickly and easily
between BIOS one and two.
CONDENSATION DETECTION
Specialized circuitry allows Maximus X Apex to detect when condensation
occurs on the back of the board. Divided into three distinct sections CPU, DRAM
and PCIe the feature provides a useful warning when an area may be at risk of
short-circuiting.
- CPU LED - Flashes when condensation is detected near the
CPU.
- DRAM LED - Flashes when condensation is detected near the
DRAM.
- PCIE LED - Flashes when condensation is detected near the
PCIe.
DDR4 OVERCLOCKING
ROG engineers adopted a two-slot memory design, enabling a shorter trace
layout for tighter control over impedance and reduced signal interference. And
it's teamed with ASUS OptiMem to preserve memory signal integrity by routing
traces and vias to the optimal PCB layer. Together, the enhancements provide
more headroom for overclocking and improved stability, allowing Apex to achieve
memory speeds of DDR4-4500MHz and beyond.
ASUS PRO CLOCK TECHNOLOGY WITH EXTREME ENGINE DIGI+
The dedicated base-clock (BCLK) generator designed for 8th Generation Core
processors is what allowed Apex to set an overclocked BCLK frequency record of
584MHz*. This custom solution works in tandem with the ASUS TurboV Processing
Unit (TPU) to enhance voltage and base-clock overclocking control providing an
exciting new way to boost performance to extreme heights. And, of course,
Maximus X Apex includes Extreme Engine Digi+ ROG's revered digital power
controller. With a Digi+ PWM controller, Texas Instruments NexFET MOSFETs,
MicroFine alloy chokes, and 10K black metallic capacitors, Extreme Engine Digi+
technology delivers consistently stable power.
Advantages of ASUS Pro Clock:
- Reduced boot time
- Lower jitter under extreme conditions for higher overclocks
- Increased stability under heavy overclocking
MICROFINE ALLOY CHOKES
More stable and greater efficiency at high currents
- 3x finer than standard
- 31% cooler than large granules
- 75% hysteresis reduction
10KJAPANESE-MADE BLACK METALLIC CAPACITORS
