1.1.2 ROG Gaming Features SupremeFX Impact The bundled SupremeFX Impact sound card brings you the best-in-class 115dB SNR sound for your motherboard in mini-ITX form factor. Its exclusive differential circuit design and four Op-Amps ensure lossless multi-channel gaming audio with exceptional clarity and fidelity. The audiophile-grade TI LM4562 Op-Amp, one of the four Op-Amps, boosts high-end headphone enjoyment of up to 600ohm impedance, finer detail, and stronger bass. The Music PnP function provides you with a true home entertainment media center, allowing you to stream audio files to your computer's speakers via the front panel's MIC-IN port. It allows you to enjoy listening to your favorite tracks when your computer is turned off. Sonic Radar Sonic Radar, an audio app designed for First Person Shooting (FPS) games, shows the precise direction and intensity of where a sound is coming from. In-game sound including gunshots, footprints, voice call-outs, or even a ticking bomb, is visualized as radar signals on the Sonic Radar display, providing you the advantage to know potential threats and avoid sneaky surprises. GameFirst II ASUS GameFirst II, with cFOS Traffic Shaping technology, provides a powerful and userfriendly network control to easily frag your gaming system.
