ASUS AI INTELLIGENCE


AI NETWORKING II

AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of Wi-Fi 7*.

*Features may vary by model.

Traffic Monitor Dashboard

TRAFFIC MONITOR

Armoury Crate's Traffic Monitor tracks your current WiFi channel usage. Move to a less congested channel by clicking the “Channel Switch” button* for improved network performance.

*The "Channel Switch" function requires pairing with an ASUS router. If not paired with an ASUS router, the channel change process can be performed in the "Router IP" section of the Traffic Monitor.





AI OVERCLOCKING

Tuning is now faster and smarter than ever before.

ROG Crosshair X870E Hero & Ryzen 9000 series CPU

AI Overclocking lets you automatically optimize performance.
ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.




AI COOLING II

Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click.

ROG Crosshair X870E Hero features AI Cooling II
A proprietary ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.

OVERCLOCKING


Dynamic OC Switcher diagram

DYNAMIC OC SWITCHER

Dynamic OC Switcher maximizes CPU performance by letting you set current and temperature thresholds to automatically switch between a manual overlock for heavy multithreaded workloads and Precision Boost Overdrive for single-threaded tasks. The latest Overclocking Load Guard has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking.

Example:


If a user sets thresholds for current and temperature as shown, once CPU current exceeds 35A, the manual overclock engages until the temperature reaches 80°. At all other times, Precision Boost Overdrive will be used.
