High Bandwidth and Low Latency
DUAL INTEL SERVER-GRADE LAN
With both LAN ports designed, you’ll benefit from increased bandwidth for speed, automated load balancing for smoother data flow, and instant failover if anything goes wrong. Adoption of one 2.5G LAN provides up to 2.5 GbE network connectivity, with at least two times faster transfer speeds compared to general 1GbE networking. It is also backward compatible with Multi-Gig (10/100/1000/2500Mbps) RJ-45 Ethernet.

Effective Cooling for Every Task
VISION D COOLING TECHNOLOGY
An effective cooling solution is essential for a heavy design workload to get away with slow down, crashes, and unexpected shutdown. Unconventional Heatsinks is designed for better thermal dissipation but also aesthetically appealing to creators. A heat pipe connects a giant curved heatsink and micro cube heatsink that fully cover the VRM area. It ensures the heat can be dissipated more efficiently. In addition, all the M.2 SSD are all covered with ultra efficient dual sided heatsinks, so creators can move big files with un-throttled transfer speed and prolong SSD longevity.

Customise Cooling with Smart Fan 5
HYBRID FAN HEADERS
Eight hybrid fan headers and numerous temperature sensors are planted on the motherboard to monitor in real time and configure fan mode to fit different workloads via Smart Fan 5. Creators are allowed to set the trigger point to activate the fan and its corresponding speed. The fan completely stops when performing light tasks to avoid noise.
