Active Chipset Heatsink Solution

M.2 Heatsink

Cooler by design

Prime X570-Pro features the most comprehensive cooling controls ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.

Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors, and via Fan Xpert 4 you can even map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU and CPU-intensive tasks.

A dedicated header that supplies over 3A for high-performance PWM or DC water pumps, plus a second dedicated header for AIOs.

Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.

A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from over-temperature and over-current.

Active Chipset Heatsink Solution

Dedicated cooling for unthrottled transfers

PCIe 4.0 provides twice the bandwidth for data flowing through the chipset, which creates more heat than the previous generation. The Prime X570-Pro features an actively cooled heatsink to prevent throttling during sustained transfers.

Active Chipset Heatsink Solution includes:

Air Duct: A specially-designed air duct helps the fan generate static pressure and concentrates air flow over the fins.
Finned heatsink: The heatsink fin density is optimized to maximize surface area while maintaining a low-resistance exhaust path.
Custom Delta Superflo Fan: The custom low-noise fan features a high-durability bearing with a 60,000-hour L10* lifespan.
* L10 bearing life is a standard metric that specifies the number of hours that 90% of the bearing are expected to continue successfully operating, as a minimum.

M.2 heatsink

Keep your SSD chilled

M.2 drives sit under passive heatsinks to ward off the throttling that can occur with sustained transfers.
