Why the "AI TOP" Name?

Unlike standard high-end boards, the "AI TOP" series is marketed as a workstation-grade solution for "training your own AI on your desk."2 It features:

  • AORUS AI SNATCH: Auto-overclocking software powered by AI models to maximize performance without manual trial-and-error.3

  • AI Perfdrive: Custom BIOS presets that optimize performance and power efficiency based on your specific cooling setup.

  • Multi-GPU Scalability: Supports 2x PCIe 5.0 x16 slots (running at x8/x8) which is critical for large language model (LLM) training that requires multiple GPUs.4

Next-Gen Connectivity: Thunderbolt 5

This is one of the first motherboards to feature Thunderbolt™ 5, offering a massive leap over its predecessor:

  • 120Gbps Bandwidth: In "Bandwidth Boost" mode, it can deliver up to 3x the speed of Thunderbolt 4 for data-intensive tasks.

  • Dual 8K Displays: Supports dual 8K 60Hz or multiple high-refresh 4K monitors through a single cable.5

Advanced Thermal & Build Features

  • DDR Wind Blade XTREME: An active cooling solution specifically for the memory modules, ensuring high-frequency DDR5 stability.6

  • VRM Thermal Armor Advanced: Uses a 3X Ultimate Heatpipe and 12 W/mk thermal pads to keep the massive power delivery system cool during 24/7 AI workloads.7

  • UD Nanocarbon Backplate: A full-length metal backplate that adds structural rigidity and assists in heat dissipation from the back of the PCB.8

  • WIFI EZ-Plug: A new physical design that simplifies antenna installation (magnetic and push-to-lock).9


Comparison: XTREME vs. MASTER AI TOP

While both are high-end, the XTREME model adds:

  1. Dual 10GbE LAN (compared to a single 10G or 5G on lower models).

  2. Thunderbolt 5 (Master may use Thunderbolt 4 depending on the specific regional revision).

  3. Active Memory Cooling (Wind Blade Xtreme).10

  4. Titanium PCIe Armor for the highest level of physical slot protection.11
