First X79 Motherboard Certified Intel XMP with DDR3 2400MHz Memory
Following the launch of a complete range of ASUS X79-based motherboards, the brand has scored another accolade in the form of its first Intel Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) certified Socket LGA 2011 board, the P9X79 DELUXE, which features 2400MHz RAM. The ROG Rampage IV Extreme also hosts the current X79 RAM speed record at 2700MHz, made possible, thanks to exhaustive development and testing, as well as focussed investment in exclusive power delivery and overclocking technologies.
"Kingston is very excited that the ASUS P9X79 DELUXE is the first X79 board certified XMP by Intel, which was achieved using Kingston HyperX quad-channel kits. We are very happy to partner with Intel and ASUS again to bring this new high-performance solution to market," said Ann Bai, Kingston DRAM Memory Sales Director - APAC Region, when speaking on the P9X79 DELUXE.
With its support for faster memory speeds and more stable overclocking, the Rampage IV Extreme has also played an important role in demonstrating how far RAM speeds can be pushed on the Intel X79 platform. It has recently served as the core of a system that clocked 2700MHz DDR3, configured with 16GB of G.Skill Ripjaws Z DDR3-2400 (4GB x4) at 1.65V.
ASUS engineers also used 64GB of G.Skill Ripjaws Z DDR3-2133 (8GB x 8) at 1.5V on the P9X79 DELUXE, reaching RAM speeds of 2133MHz, showing its highly stable overclocking potential when running the full amount of memory.
ASUS P9X79 Series motherboards and the Rampage IV Extreme offer flexible and control-focused Intel X79 implementation. They arrive loaded with the enabling features consumers expect for high output second-generation Intel Core i7 processors, and offer an 8-DIMM design that supports up to 64GB of quad-channel DDR3 memory. However, the main enabler of overclocking is the meticulously designed and implemented total board layout, which uses exclusive ASUS New DIGI+ Power Control all-digital voltage regulation architecture for both the CPU and DRAM. It opens up added flexibility and greater efficiency, driving a much-improved overclocking posture.
