X58A-OCOverclocking Motherboard
X58A-OCOverclocking MotherboardOC-VRMIncludes a combination of POScaps, MPFC Chokes, and DriverMOS. OC-VRM can be overclocked to deliver higher current to the CPU
OC-TouchAllows users to manually raise and lower the CPU ratio, change BCLK and even change BCLK steppings by 1MHz or 0.3MHz
OC-PEGProvides two onboard SATA power connectors to give more stable PCIe power
OC-CoolFeatures a new LED lit thermal design and a total of 7 4-pin Smart Fan connectors to allow overclockers to easily control their system-wide temperature
OC-Dual BIOSFeatures an onboard BIOS switcher and LED indicator, allowing users to easily select different BIOSes for normal use or overclocking
Designed by Overclockers, for Overclockers
