1.1.2 ROG unique gaming features
SupremeFX
ROG-exclusive SupremeFX audio technology has been re-engineered using a new and
unique circuit design with an extra op-amp. 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 115dB 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.
