Cooling Heatsinks
-
VRM and Aluminum I/O Heatsink
A VRM heatsink on the MOSFETs and chokes is connected to the aluminum I/O cover via an embedded heatpipe to increase mass and surface area for dissipation. -
Extended VRM & M.2 Heatsink
The extended heatsink helps further cool the VRM and an M.2 drive mounted in the primary onboard slot. -
Aluminum M.2 Heatsink
An aluminum heatsink cover efficiently cools an M.2 drive mounted in the second onboard slot. -
M.2 Backplates
The two onboard M.2 slots feature backplate blocks to help cool high-performance drives, even when airflow is restricted.
Cooler by Design
ROG Maximus XIII Apex features comprehensive cooling options that are configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.
-
Multiple temperature sources
Each header can be set to monitor and react to three user-configurable thermal sensors for workload-based cooling, and all settings can be easily managed by Fan Xpert 4 or via the UEFI. -
4-pin PWM/DC Fan Headers and ASUS HYDRANODE
Every onboard header auto-detects any PWM or DC fan, and three chassis fan headers offer ASUS HYDRANODE support. -
AIO Pump
A dedicated PWM/DC header supports self-contained water-cooling setups.
ASUS OptiMem III
