    detail

  • A dedicated PWM/DC header for self-contained water-cooling setups.

    detail

HEATSINKS

Heatsinks are extremely important for motherboards, as they absorb heat from critical areas to ensure components do not stagger due to overheating. With VRM, chipset​ and M.2 heatsinks, ROG Crosshair VIII Formula ensures efficient and stable operation even when pushed hard.

  • Active Chipset Heatsink

  • Backplate & M.2 Heatsink

  • ACTIVE CHIPSET HEATSINK DESIGN

    PCle 4.0 provides twice the bandwidth for data flowing through the chipset, which creates more heat than the previous generation.
    The Formula features an actively cooled heatsink to prevent throttling during sustained transfers.

    • Custom Delta Superflo Fan

      The custom low-noise fan features a high-durability bearing with a 60,000-hour L10* lifespan.

      * L10 bearing lifespan specifies the minimum number of hours that 90% of the bearing are expected to last.

      Air Duct

      A specially-designed air duct helps the fan generate static pressure and concentrates air flow over the fins.

      Finned heatsink

      The heatsink fin density is optimized to maximize surface area while maintaining a low-resistance exhaust path.

    • 1SOLID STEEL BACKPLATE

      The steel, electro-galvanized, cold-rolled coil construction strengthens Crosshair VIII Formula to prevent bending, and adds additional mass to siphon heat from the VRM.

    • 2M.2 Heatsink

      ROG Crosshair VIII Formula is equipped with a stylish M.2 heatsink that keeps your SSD cool. By efficiently dissipating heat away from the M.2 area, it minimizes the possibility of the performance-sapping throttling that can happen when drives become too warm.
