Chapter 1: Product Introduction Product introduction 1.1 Special features 1 1.1.1 Product highlights LGA2011-v3 socket for Intel® Core™ i7 processors This motherboard supports the New Intel® Core™ i7 processors in the LGA2011-v3 package. It provides great system performance, quad-channel DDR4 memory slots and PCI Express 2.0/3.0 expansion slots. Intel® X99 Express Chipset Intel® X99 Express Chipset is a single chipset that supports the LGA2011-v3 socket for Intel® Core™ i7 processors. It utilizes the serial point-to-point links, which increases bandwidth and enhances the system's performance. It natively supports up to six (6) USB 3.0 ports and ten (10) SATA 6 Gb/s ports. PCI Express® 3.0 PCI Express® 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the PCI Express bus standard that provides twice the performance and speed of PCIe 2.0. It provides an optimal graphics performance, unprecedented data speed and seamless transition with its complete backward compatibility to PCIe 1.0/2.0 devices. 3-WAY SLI and Quad GPU CrossFireX™ Support This motherboad supports NVIDIA® SLI™ and AMD CrossFire™ 2-WAY/3-WAY configurations that enable multi-GPU setup, giving you full power of the latest graphics technology to play games at 4K and beyond. SATA Express support SATA Express provides faster data transfer speeds of up to 10 Gb/s, allowing your system to catch up with the speed of the SSDs. It also features backward compatibility with up to two SATA drives of the same speed. Quad-Channel DDR4 3000 MHz Support The motherboard supports the quad-channel DDR4 memory that features data transfer rates of DDR4 3000 MHz to boost the system's performance, and to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of 3D graphics, multimedia and Internet applications. M.2 Support* This motherboard features the M.2 slot, which shares bandwidth with PCI Express 3.0 x4 slot to speed up data transfer up to 32 Gb/s. This helps enhance the performance of your SSD (Solid State Drive) that is dedicated only to the operating system. * Supports PCIe mode only. Chapter 1 ASUS X99-PRO/USB 3.1 1-1
