ADVANCED THERMAL SOLUTION X570S AORUS ELITE AX uses a high-performance Full Covered thermal design with high-coverage MOSFET Heatsinks and a thick thermal pad, providing ultimate MOSFET cooling performance for enthusiasts, overclockers and gamers. 

1. 2X Large Surface Increased surface area up to 2X larger compared to traditional heatsinks. It improves heat dissipation from the MOSFETs. 

2. Real One-piece Build TMOS is a TRUE single-piece heatsink. Its one-piece design and larger surface drastically improve the cooling performance against competitors’ multi-piece designs. 

3. Multi-Cut Design TMOS features several channels and inlets on the heatsink. This design allows for the airflow to go through which leads to a great improvement in the heat transfer performance. 

AORUS M.2 Thermal Guard GIGABYTE Ultra-Efficient M.2 Thermal Guard With durability in mind, GIGABYTE provides a thermal solution for M.2 SSD devices. The M.2 Thermal Guard prevents throttling and bottlenecks from high-speed M.2 SSDs as it helps to dissipate heat before it becomes an issue. Smart Fan 6 contains several unique cooling features that ensure gaming PC maintain its performance while staying cool and quiet. Multiple fan headers can support PWM/DC fans and pumps, and users can easily define each fan curve based on different temperature sensors across the board via the intuitive user interface. 

Cooling Features High Current Support Each fan headers support PWM and DC fan and Water cooling Pump and up to 24W (12V x 2A) with Over-Current Protection 

Precision Control Up to 6 temperature/fan speed control points for the precise fan curve 

Dual Curve Mode Slope/Stair dual mode for different user scenarios

Fan Stop Fan can stop completely below users' specified temperature point 

Smart Fan 6 BIOS UI 1. Improve fan curve UI We increase control points from 5 to 7 and larger fan speed graphs for precise and easier fan curve control. 

2. Slope/Stair dual graph mode Fan curve can be quickly switched with Slope and Stair modes for different user scenarios. The slope is a traditional and intuitive linear fan speed curve. With the newly added Stair non-linear mode, the fan keeps at the same speed between specified temperature intervals. 

3. Manual Input For advanced users, we provide fan speed manual input for more precise control. 

4. EZ Tuning Use can place 4 EZ Tuning points at rough temperature/fan speed, and Smart Fan 6 can quickly generate a fan curve. 

5. Fan curve profile can be saved in BIOS ROM, the profile will be kept after updating BIOS. 

Intelligent Fan Control Design Achieve fan silence. With Fan Stop, map any fan to stop completely when temperatures drop below a specified threshold. Which fan stops, based on readings from which sensor, and at what temperature—all of it can be customized to your liking. 

NEXT GENERATION CONNECTIVITY A high-end product needs to be future-proof so your system stays up-to-date with the latest technology. X570S AORUS ELITE AX provides all next-generation networks, storage, and connectivity to keep you up to speed. 

First adopter on 2.5GbE LAN onboard 2X Faster than ever Adoption of 2.5G LAN provides up to 2.5 GbE network connectivity, with at least 2 times faster transfer speeds compared to general 1GbE networking, perfectly designed for gamers with ultimate online gaming experience. Support Multi-Gig(10/100/1000/2500Mbps) RJ-45 Ethernet 

AMD WiFi 6E 802.11ax + BT 5.2 Module AMD Wireless solution 802.11ax WIFI 6E with new dedicated 6GHz band, enables gigabit wireless performance and provides smooth video streaming, better gaming experience, few dropped connections, and speeds up to 1.2Gbps*. Moreover, Bluetooth 5.2 provides 4X range over BT 4.2 and with faster transmission. 

The benefit of WiFi 6E Dedicated spectrum in the 6GHz band for less interference 4X better network capacity, and no traffic jams, especially in that dense areas with lots of devices Network efficiency increases for better user experience WIFI 6E Advantage Spectrum congestion, is a huge problem in current WIFI environment nowadays because too many devices all use existing 2.4GHz and 5GHz spectrum, and it causes unreliable connection and slower speed. WIFI 6E is extended standard to WIFI 6, and it uses a dedicated 6GHz band that it provides not only a brand new frequency to transfer data but also a spacious spectrum for future devices. With WIFI 6E, users can enjoy faster connection and stronger signals than before.
