BUILT FOR NON STOP ACTION

ASUS Expedition: Ready for non-stop battle

ASUS Expedition motherboards are made for non-stop action, engineered with non-stop durability to prevent damage from moisture, corrosion and overvoltages — for immense longevity. We even test them to the limits, with 144 hour of diskless-system tests and extensive checks for compatibility with top games and over 100 gaming peripherals. And for the ultimate audio, Expedition motherboards have Epic gaming audio to provide exhilarating non-stop gaming performance — and the best stability, reliability, and value for you!

NON STOP DURABILITY

Exceptional stability and protection

ASUS Expedition motherboards offer an exclusive package of unbeatable hardware and features to ensure non-stop durability, including an anti-moisture coating, gold-plated PCIe® x16 slot and LAN connector, USBGuard protection for 120%-higher overvoltage toleration, and exclusive 5X Protection III for absolute reliability.

Anti-moisture coating

100% protection against moisture and corrosion

This innovative moisture-resistant coating provides 100% motherboard protection, and combats the higher levels of humidity that build up in densely-populated environments, such as internet cafes, libraries and data centers. It even minimizes internal corrosion by preventing the adhesion and migration of moisture — prolonging the life of your Expedition motherboard.

Gold-plated PCIe x16 and LAN design

Up to 6X-stronger durability

ASUS Expedition motherboards are equipped with a premium 30-micron-thick gold-plated LAN connector, and a 15-micron-thick gold-plated PCIe x16 port to protect your investment against corrosion, and improving durability and reliability.

USBGuard

120% higher overvoltage protection

Exclusive USBGuard technology detects voltage changes in real time, and has 120%-higher overvoltage tolerances than standard to ensure stable and reliable input voltages — minimizing the risk of damage, and protecting your equipment.

* USBGuard supports USB2.0 device only

SafeSlot

Protect Your Graphics Card Investment

SafeSlot is the PCIe slot reinvented by ASUS and engineered to provide superior retention and shearing resistance. Manufactured in a single step using a new insert-molding process to integrate the slot with fortifying metal support for an inherently stronger slot, which is then firmly anchored to the PCB through additional solder points.

Water pump header

EX-A320M-GAMING motherboard has an integrated water-pump header that offers full control over either PWM or DC water pumps, so it's perfect for ready-made, self-contained or custom cooling setups. The header supports a maximum current of up to 3A, so you can equip any popular water-cooling solution — enabling you to dissipate heat far more efficiently than with a traditional air-cooled system!

SafeSlot Core
Surge-Protected Networking
Overvoltage Protection
Stable Power Supply
Stainless-Steel Back I/O

ASUS EXPEDITION motherboards are engineered with industry-leading 5X Protection III, employing the finest components, excellent circuit design, and exacting standards to guarantee the quality and long-term durability of your motherboard. That means exceptional protection and stability for your build — thanks to decades of engineering experience from the world's leading motherboard brand.

SafeSlot Core

Fortified PCIe slot prevents damage

SafeSlot Core is the ASUS-exclusive PCIe slot. Featuring a fortified design that's anchored to the motherboard by a special hook, Safeslot Core provides 1.6x stronger retention and 1.3x greater shearing resistance than standard expansion slots.

ASUS EXPEDITION motherboards have strengthened solder points around both the PCIe and DIMM pins.

LANGuard

Pumped-up throughput. 2.5X higher surge tolerance.

ASUS LANGuard is hardware-level networking protection that employs signal-coupling technology and premium anti-EMI surface-mounted capacitors ensuring a more reliable connection and better throughput, plus electrostatically-guarded and surge-protected components for greater tolerance to static electricity and improved protection against surges.

Overvoltage Protection
An exclusive circuit design with built-in voltage regulators to protect your chipset, connectivity ports, and audio codecs from damage caused by unexpected high-level voltages from unstable or inferior power supplies.
DIGI+ Voltage-Regulator Module
The ASUS-exclusive Digi+ VRM intelligently delivers power to the processor based on real-time demands, reducing energy waste and improving system stability.
Stainless-Steel Back I/O
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel back I/O panels bonded with chromium oxide have a lifespan that's three times (3X) longer than ordinary panels.

Acclaimed UEFI BIOS

The smoothest, slickest mouse-controlled graphical BIOS has been improved to make it even more appealing. Whether you're a PC novice or a seasoned overclocker, the EZ and Advanced Modes help you find your way, quickly and easily.
