ASUS AI Intelligence
AI Cache Boost
Supercharge your large language model (LLM) workflows with AI Cache Boost. Exclusive to ASUS AMD 800 and 600 series motherboards that use Ryzen™ 9000 Series CPUs, this BIOS setting optimises CPU cache and memory pathways to deliver up to 29% faster local LLM performance with high-speed memory tuning.
- Increase AI LLM performance up to 29% with AI Cache Boost
Tokens Per Second
With an ASUS AMD 600 or 800 series motherboard and a Ryzen™ 9000 series CPU, you can enable the AI Cache Boost setting in the BIOS. This feature applies comprehensive optimisations to CPU cache and memory pathways, greatly reducing the typical performance drop that can happen when VRAM is used up.
Internal testing determined that enabling AI Cache Boost delivered up to a 15% performance uplift when running large language models that exceeded graphics card memory. With high-speed DDR5 memory and additional Infinity Fabric clock (FLCK) speed tuning, this performance uplift nearly doubled.
For enthusiasts, creators or anyone who wants a powerful AI model capable of deep reasoning and natural conversation running on their own hardware, they can enjoy these uplifts today with AI Cache Boost.

ASUS AI Advisor
Using AI technology to understand natural-language questions or scenario descriptions, ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.
ASUS AI Advisor is an ASUS technical expert that's always available to answer your questions. Owners of compatible ASUS motherboards can interact with this AI-powered technology using natural language to learn more about their hardware. For DIY beginners, it can provide easy-to-understand explanations of one-click optimisation features like AI Overclocking and fan speed tuning, and for seasoned PC-building veterans, it can offer guidance and instructions on the latest features offered by ASUS.
* Availability of ASUS AI Advisor may vary by region.
AI Overclocking
ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. Predicted values can be engaged automatically or used as a launching ground for further experimentation.
AI Cooling II
Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. A proprietary ASUS algorithm slashes unnecessary noise while running a quick stress test, and then monitors CPU temperatures to dynamically adjust fans to optimal speeds.
AI Networking II
AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimise network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of WiFi 7 (Features may vary by model.).
Traffic Monitor
Armoury Crate's Traffic Monitor tracks your current WiFi channel usage. Move to a less congested channel by clicking the “Channel Switch” button (The "Channel Switch" function requires pairing with an ASUS router. If not paired with an ASUS router, the channel change process can be performed in the "Router IP" section of the Traffic Monitor.) for improved network performance.
Fast Check
Armoury Crate’s Fast Check empowers users to rapidly detect WiFi signal strength.
Direction Finder
Armoury Crate’s Direction Finder (The Direction Finder is only compatible with connections in the 5GHz and 6GHz bands) helps users detect the optimal antenna orientation for achieving the best WiFi signal strength.
GameFirst
GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate for an even better user experience. GameFirst optimises networking performance by allocating bandwidth in real time, based on intelligent algorithms designed for various application customisable usage scenarios and corresponding learning algorithms. The latest update includes dedicated support for NVIDIA® GeForce NOW to ensure the lowest latency possible during intense game streaming cloud gaming sessions. To provide a better user’s experience, GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate.
Performance
Overclocking
Dynamic OC Switcher
Dynamic OC Switcher maximises CPU performance by letting you set current and temperature thresholds to automatically switch between a manual overclock for heavy multithreaded workloads and Precision Boost Overdrive for single-threaded tasks. The latest Overclocking Load Guard has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking.
Example:
If a user sets thresholds for current and temperature as shown, once CPU current exceeds 35A, the manual overclock engages until the temperature reaches 80°. At all other times, Precision Boost Overdrive will be used.
Core Flex
Core Flex empowers you to smash limits farther than ever before by letting you control clock, power, and thermals in creative new ways. In its simplest form, you can maximise base clock during lighter loads and set breakpoints to gradually reduce CPU core frequency as temperature or current increases. But the system is extremely adaptable, supporting multiple user-controlled functions that can manipulate power, current, and temperature limits independently so that you can bend CPU performance to your will.
Examples:
Base Clock
- For this CPU, the base clock (BCLK) can be stably increased to give an extra boost during lightly threaded workloads.
- At Level 1, the BCLK is set to 104, and it remains at that frequency until the current reaches 35A.
- Then the BCLK drops down to 102, and stays in that Level 2 range up until 55A.
- From that point on, the CPU is using most or all of its threads, so the BCLK scales back to the default 100.
EDC
- By managing the Electrical Design Current (EDC) in tandem with the total current, this CPU can gain extra performance for short, demanding bursts.
- During lightly threaded workloads, below 35A, the Level 1 EDC is set to a low value, in this case 60.
- As more cores are needed, the EDC is set to 120, which was found by this user to be a sweet spot for performance.
- Once the CPU passes 70A, it is in multi-threaded territory, where it was found that a high EDC of 250 gave optimal performance.
PPT
- In order to let the CPU cool off if its temperatures go too high, this user constrains the Package Power Target (PPT) when thermals increase. Specifically the short-term value (“Fast”) is used.
- Until the CPU reaches 70°, it can run at full performance, so 350W is set to give plenty of overhead.
- At that point, the power limit reduces to 220W, to let the CPU start reducing heat.
- If it is still under sustained load and keeps getting hotter, then a more stringent 165W PPT is set at 85°.
PBO Enhancement
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance. By aggressively tuning the PBO parameters, AMD's algorithm can leverage the motherboard's robust power solution to ramp up performance even higher.
