Asus ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II features comprehensive cooling options and upgraded power delivery for high-performance gaming performance, as well as fast storage and memory.
Gaming enthusiasts will enjoy the best gaming experience with Asus ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II. Get faster file transfers and minimize lag as you boost your wins.
X299 delivers ample bandwidth in a variety of ways. Across eight memory slots, it supports up to 256 GB of DDR4 memory. Thanks to an optimized trace layout, the ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II can achieve memory speeds of up to 4266 MHz.
The ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II has three M.2 slots. One slot supports both SATA and PCIe 3.0 x4 modes, and the other slots support PCIe 3.0 x4 for NVMe. By combining them, you get the fastest and most flexible M.2 interface.
Using the Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (VROC) feature*, you can set up two M.2 drives in RAID. The traditional bottlenecks of DMI systems are eliminated with VROC, so you won't have to worry about other traffic slowing your storage down.
ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II amps up networking with 2.5G Ethernet and next-gen Intel® Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) that surpasses gigabit speeds to take your LAN to the next level. With ROG GameFirst software that offers multi-gate teaming, you'll enjoy the very best online gaming experience.
With the latest 802.11ax standard, you can enjoy high-performance wireless connectivity for better gaming experience. Additionally, 802.11ax provides better network ping in multi-user environments, as well as improved throughput and coverage.
With the 2.5G on-board Ethernet, you can improve your Ethernet connection by up to 2.5X. Through this networking upgrade, you will be able to enjoy smoother, lag-free gaming, stream high-resolution videos and enjoy faster file transfers.
Asus ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II features Intel Ethernet (I219-V), which ensures fast and smooth data transfers. With Intel Ethernet, CPU overhead is reduced, TCP and UDP throughput is increased, and processing power is preserved.
Technology immerses you in sound. SupremeFX provides a flat frequency response through its use of the S1220A codec, resulting in a neutral, detailed sound signature. With dual Op Amps driving the front-panel output, the sonic signature is ensured to be preserved, delivering sonics with the authority and scale necessary to create a virtual world on your gaming headset.
For best sound quality, electromagnetic interference must be effectively shielded in order to maintain the integrity of audio signals. This is called audio line shielding. Provides cleaner audio by blocking electromagnetic interference from the motherboard or add-ons.
Two op-amps on board deliver excellent sound to your favorite headphones, and the 32-600Ω-headphone impedance provides great flexibility.
Components made in Japan that produce a warm, natural sound with exceptional fidelity and clarity.
ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II offers a host of design features, including a unique cyber-text pattern, customization options, and the most diverse ecosystem of components in the industry that make it easy to customize a gaming rig.
The ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II looks stunning, with or without RGB. A laser-engraved ROG logo graces the I/O shroud for an understated touch. However, ROG topped this with an acrylic plate imprinted with their cybertext patterns, so turning on the lights illuminates a whole new aesthetic dimension - unique style with a cyberpunk edge.
