ROG Striker II Extreme / Striker II NSE 1-5
Loadline Calibration
The Loadline calibration ensures stable and optimal CPU voltage when heavy
loading.
Voltiminder LED
In the persuit of extreme performance, overvoltage adjustment is critical but risky.
Acting as the ā€œred zoneā€ of a tachometer, the ļæ½oltiminder ī€ÆED displays the voltage
status for CPU, NB, SB, and Memory in a intuitive color-coded fashion. The
Voltiminder LED allows quick voltage monitoring for overclockers. See pages 2-1
and 2-2 for details.
Frequency LED
Worried that no one knows when you have overclocked your system to the max?
Let the motherboard do the talking! The onboard Frequency LED highlights when
your system is under extreme overclocking or normal statesā€”allowing you to show
off your O.C. skills. See page 2-3 for details.See page 2-3 for details.
Component Overheat Protection -EX (COP EX)
The COP EX allows overclockers to increase chipset voltages without the worries
of overheating. It can also be used to monitor and save an overheating GPU.
The COP EX allows more freedom and less constraint for maximum performance
achievement.
AI Booster
The ASUS AI Booster allows you to overclock the CPU speed in Windows
Ā®
environment without the hassle of booting the BIOS. See page 5-33 for details.
ASUS O.C. Proīƒ€le
The motherboard features the ASUS O.C. Proīƒ€le that allows users to conveniently
store or load multiple BIOS settings. The BIOS settings can be stored in the
CMOS or a separate īƒ€le, giving users freedom to share and distribute their favorite
settings. See page 4-42 for details.
C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall)
When the system hangs due to overclocking failure, there is no need to open the
system chassis to clear CMOS data. Simply reboot the system, and the BIOS
automatically restores the CPU default settings for each parameter.
Due to the chipset behavior, AC power off is required before using C.P.R.
function.

1.3.4 ASUS special features
Fanless Designā€“Stack Cool 2
ASUS Stack Cool 2 is a fan-less and zero-noise cooling solution that lowers the
temperature of critical heat generating components. The motherboard uses a
special design on the printed circuit board (PCB) to dissipate heat these critical
components generate.
AI Gear 3+
With a manual or automatic mode, AI Gear 3
+ allows users to choose from
four proīƒ€les to adjust CPU frequency and vCore voltageā€”ā€œTurbo Mode,ā€ ā€œHigh
Performance Mode,ā€ ā€œMedium Power Saving Mode,ā€ and ā€œMax Power Saving
Mode.ā€ As a digital solution, AI Gear 3+ is very precise and can automatically detect
current CPU loading, dynamically overclocking the CPU speed in real time and
lowering the voltage for power saving during light loading. With this power saving
mode, users can make real-time changes in the operating system and can save up
to 62% CPU power in light loading.
AI Nap
With AI Nap, the system can continue running at minimum power and noise when
you are temporarily away. To wake the system and return to the OS environment,
simply click the mouse or press a key. See page 5-31 for details.
ASUS Q-Fan Plus technology
The ASUS Q-Fan Plus technology smartly adjusts the CPU, chassis, and optional
fan speeds according to the system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efīƒ€cient
operation. See pages 4-35 and 5-32 for details.
Optional Fan
The optional fan is speciīƒ€cally designed to provide sufīƒ€cient airīƒow over the CPU
power modules and chipset area when water-cooling or passive-cooling is utilized,
ensuring effective heat dissipation for the entire system. See pages 2-16 and 2-17
for details.

2.1 Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
ā€¢ Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
ā€¢ Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal
object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to
avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
ā€¢ Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
ā€¢ Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic
pad or in the bag that came with the component.
ā€¢ Before you install or remove any component, ensurethat the ATX power
supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power
supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard,
peripherals, and/or components.
Onboard LEDs
The motherboard comes with LEDs that indicate the voltage conditions of CPU,
memory, northbridge, southbridge, and FSB frequency. You may adjust the
voltages in BIOS. There are also an LED for hard disk drive activity and an onboard
switch for power status. For more information about voltage adjustment, refer to
4.4 Extreme Tweaker menu.

2.2 Motherboard overview
Before you install the motherboard, study the conī€€guration of your chassis to
ensure that the motherboard ī€€ts into it.
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage
motherboard components.
DO NOT overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.
2.2.1 Placement direction
When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the
correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis
as indicated in the image below.

2.3.2 Installing the CPU heatsink and fan
The Intel Ā® LGA775 processor requires a specially designed heatsink and fan
assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and performance.
To install the CPU heatsink and fan:
1. Place the heatsink on top of the
installed CPU, making sure that the
four fasteners match the holes on
the motherboard.
ā€¢ When you buy a boxed Intel Ā® processor, the package includes the CPU fan
and heatsink assembly. If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you
use only Intel Ā®-certiī€€ed multi-directional heatsink and fan.
ā€¢ Your Intel Ā® LGA775 heatsink and fan assembly comes in a push-pin design
and requires no tool to install.
ā€¢ If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, make sure
that you have properly applied Thermal Interface Material to the CPU
heatsink or CPU before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.
Make sure that you have installed the motherboard to the chassis before you
install the CPU fan and heatsink assembly.
Make sure to orient each fastener with the narrow end of the groove pointing
outward. (The photo shows the groove shaded for emphasis.)
Orient the heatsink and fan
assembly such that the CPU fan
cable is closest to the CPU fan
connector.

5. Rotate each fastener clockwise to
ensure correct orientation when

Refer to the documentation in the boxed or stand-alone CPU fan package for
detailed information on CPU fan installation.
The narrow end of the
groove should point outward
after resetting. (The photo

5. Follow Step 1 to 4 to install the other optional fan.
6. The photo shows that two fans are
installed to the motherboard.
Plug the optional fan cable in the PWR_FAN connector on the motherboard.
ROG Striker II Extreme / Striker II NSE 2-19
2.4.2 Memory conī€€gurations
You may install 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR3 DIMMs into
the DIMM sockets.
Recommended Memory Conī€€gurations
ā€¢ You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The
system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel
conī€€guration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then
mapped for single-channel operation.
ā€¢ Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility,
it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.
ā€¢ If you install four 1 GB memory modules, the system may only recognize less
than 3GB because the address space is reserved for other critical functions.
This limitation appears on Windows Ā® XP/Vista 32-bit operation system which
does not support Physical Address Extension (PAE).
ā€¢ If you install Windows Ā® XP/Vista 32-bit operation system, a total memory of
less than 3GB is recommended.
ā€¢ Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than 8 GB
system memory when you installed four 2 GB DDR3 memory modules.
Notes on memory limitations
ā€¢ Due to chipset limitation, this motherboard can only support up to 8 GB on
the operating systems listed below. You may install a maximum of 2 GB
DIMMs on each slot.
