ROG motherboard family (2017~)
Same DNA. Different Audience.
Following the similar hierarchy of ROG series, STRIX series MB are positioned as below:
Designed for hardcore water cooling and dramatic Aura Sync lighting, ROG's Maximus IX Formula takes high-end gaming to the next level. Liquid loops connect directly to the CrossChill EK II VRM block for optimal cooling. There are more RGB LEDs onboard, plus laser etching to illuminate the upgraded ROG Armor. A full backplate and integrated I/O shield further elevate the styling while adding structural reinforcement.

The new I/O Shield expands on the original design by streamlining the motherboard installation process reducing installation to a single step.

Not just about looks
Due to the unique latching mechanism of the integrated I/O shield, the new design allows for significantly greater contact between the I/O shield and the onboard connectors. The result is an overall ESD discharge protection that is 2 times better than the industry standard.

Premium gaming features combine with streamlined styling to create an all-new model for this generation. The Maximus IX Code makes our distinctive ROG Armor more accessible to gamers and enthusiasts seeking a unique look for their builds. Aura Sync lighting adds to the aesthetic appeal, while practical features like onboard Wi-Fi and long-lasting components give gamers everything they need in a high-end board.
MAXIMUS IX CODE
Code has roots in codex, a Latin term describing the precursor to modern books that became popular due to its unique and durable cover. The Maximus IX Code seeks to set a new standard in motherboard design by making ROG Armor more accessible to gamers.

SCAN AND DETECT TO DOMINATE All sound displayed simultaneously requires users to parse not only direction but loudness.
Sound displayed based on color intensity, making louder sounds naturally noticable compare to softer sounds.
24 Segments lead to information overload.
Sectors controllable from 4- 16, making direction data clearer and more direct.
Result: Sonic Radar 2 is maximally effective in 1 on 1 battles, but useless in a firefight.
Result: Sonic Radar 3 is effective regardless of the surrounding noise and chaos
Most importantly, Sonic Radar III’s in-game arrow provides the most direct feedback for incoming sound direction.
DUAL M.2, USB 3.1 CONNECTOR AND 2X2 AC WI-FI
LET YOUR SSD SCREAM AT TOP SPEED
Maximus IX Series are all equipped with dual PCIe Gen 3 x4 M.2 slots offering NVMe SSD RAID support and great performance boost.
Create RAID with up to 3 PCIe Gen 3 devices via two M.2 slots and the last PCIe x16 slot (PCH) and enjoy the world’s fastest data transfer speed on the Kabylake platform!
The traditional USB 3.1 controller is connected via either PCIe Gen2 x2 (10Gb/s) or Gen3 x1 (8Gb/s) which limits the USB 3.1 Gen2 transfer rates (10Gb/s). Thanks to the ASM 2142 USB 3.1 controller, running at PCIe Gen3 x2 (16Gb/s), and the USB 3.1 front panel connector, you can now achieve the highest data transferring speed on the Maximus IX series motherboards.

With high-end GPUs being the largest source of heat in any build, the GPU more of an effect on nominal case temperatures than any other component. At long last, users can set GPU temperature as a fan tuning source via Fan Xpert 4 for a dynamic cooling response to system power output!

MONITOR YOUR WATER COOLING LOOPS
The Water Cooling Zone is designed specifically for users that need finer control of their custom water cooling setups:
W_IN/OUT T-sensor allows for monitoring of temperatures at the input/output of any block
W_FLOW Tachometer allows for constant monitoring of flow rate of the entire loop
With the new Water Cooling Zone, temperatures and flow rates can be read directly into Fan Xpert 4—allowing peace of mind to know that everything is functioning properly, while saving the hassle of installing third party hardware.

The new thin fin design simultaneously increases flow rate and increases contact surface area for a 4˚C improvement over the last generation.
ROG Exclusive Technology
The Hero utilizes an all new patented heatsink design, produced via a specialized
extrusion process. The perforations created
through this process work in tandem with the onboard
LEDs to create unique aura around the PCH logo.
