Rampage
V Extreme supports quad-channel DDR4 memory and is equipped with multiple
exclusive technologies to aid extreme overclockers, including the patent-pending
OC Socket, OC Panel, Safe Boot and ReTry buttons. Thanks to its ultimate
overclocking design and features, ROG team has broken 28 records1
with Rampage V Extreme. It currently holds two fastest CPU benchmarks (8 Core /
16C threads and 1 Core / 1 thread), 4004MHz DDR4 memory speed, 17 3DMark
scores, along with two Catzilla, two CineBench, two Wprime, XTU, and HWBotPrime
benchmarks.

Exclusive features for extreme overclocking
Rampage V Extreme is
packed with exclusive technologies to unleash performance that’s truly extreme
— starting with OC Socket. This exclusive processor socket utilizes extra pins
to connect a proprietary circuit to contacts found on Haswell-E’s land grid array
(LGA). When combined with the ASUS- customized UEFI, OC Socket enables higher
DDR4 memory frequencies, lower latencies and enhanced stability while
overclocking, even under extreme liquid-nitrogen (LN2) overclocking.
OC Socket is 100% compatible with new Haswell-E LGA 2011-3 CPUs, ensuring the
ideal combination of overclocking performance and compatibility. Rampage V
Extreme grants overclockers the freedom to break every performance barrier.

ROG understands
overclockers better than any other manufacturer, so Rampage V Extreme includes
all-new hardware-level Safe Boot and ReTry buttons to help put things right
when overclocking adventures go wrong —
they’re quick, easy and real time-savers.

tweaking accessory that’s a must for all hardcore overclockers.
Installed into a 5.25-inch
drive bay, OC Panel has a bright, clear 2.6-inch display that provides live monitoring
of multiple vital parameters, including CPU temperature, ratios, base clock and
fan speeds. The CPU Level Up button provides instant control over two-stage
overclocking, while CPU fan speeds can be adjusted to Turbo, Standard and
Silent modes — all these super-simple controls are placed at users’ fingertips.

Alternatively, OC
Panel acts as an external overclocking console. In this mode, there are
connectors and switches for exclusive ROG features including Subzero Sense, VGA
SMB, VGA Hotwire, Slow Mode and Pause. It also offers access to four four-pin fans
connectors, as well as remote power and reset buttons.

Ultimate compatibility, cooling and quietness
Rampage V Extreme’s
three-piece X-Socket II makes easy work of mounting existing LN2 or
dry-ice evaporator pots to the latest LGA2011-v3 socket. The supplied star-keyed
screwdriver enables easy replacement of the LGA2011-3 backplate with X-Socket
II, so users are able to super-cool with their existing evaporators.

Exclusive DirectCU
cooling technology puts a more conductive copper heat-pipe in direct contact
with Rampage V Extreme’s VRM. Heat is then dissipated through two large aluminum
heatsinks to lower temperatures by up to 7°C.
