Product Introduction

Chapter 1: Product Introduction

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.

• Before handling components, use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded

object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, to avoid damaging them due

to static electricity.

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in

the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that 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, or components.

1.1 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or

change any motherboard settings.

1. CPU socket

The motherboard comes with a LGA1200 socket designed for 10th Gen Intel® Core™,

Pentium® Gold and Celeron® processors.

• Ensure that you install the correct CPU designed for LGA1200 socket only. DO NOT

install a CPU designed for other sockets on the LGA1200 socket.

• The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the socket

to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU.

• Ensure that all power cables are unplugged before installing the CPU.

• Upon purchase of the motherboard, ensure that the PnP cap is on the socket and

the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately if the PnP cap

is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard

components. ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/

transit-related.

• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return

Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with the

cap on the LGA1200 socket.

• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts resulting from

incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of the

PnP cap.

ROG MAXIMUS XII EXTREME 1-5

Chapter 1

2. DIMM slots

The motherboard comes with Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) slots designed for DDR4

(Double Data Rate 4) memory modules.

A DDR4 memory module is notched differently from a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 module. DO

NOT install a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 memory module to the DDR4 slot.

Recommended memory configurations

1-6 Chapter 1: Product Introduction

Chapter 1

Memory configurations

You may install 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, and 32 GB unbuffered and non-ECC DDR4 DIMMs into

the DIMM sockets.

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 configuration. Any excess

memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.

• The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its Serial Presence Detect

(SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module.

Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a

lower frequency than the vendor-marked value.

• For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full

memory load or overclocking condition.

• Always install the DIMMS with the same CAS Latency. For an optimum compatibility,

we recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or data code

(D/C) from the same vendor. Check with the vendor to get the correct memory

modules.

• Visit the ASUS website for the latest QVL.

ROG MAXIMUS XII EXTREME 1-7

3. Expansion slots

Unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion cards. Failure to do so may

cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.

Please refer to the following table for the recommended VGA configuration.

Chapter 1

Recommended VGA configuration

Slot Description Single VGA Dual VGA

2. PCIe 3.0 x16_1 x16 x8

3. PCIe 3.0 x16_2 - x8

• We recommend that you provide sufficient power when running CrossFireX™ or SLI®

mode.

• Connect a chassis fan to the chassis fan connectors when using multiple graphics

cards for better thermal environment.

• When installing a dual VGA card, we recommend selecting a chassis case which

supports 7 or more expansion slots

The PCIEx4 slot shares bandwidth with SATA6G_56 and PCIEx4 slot is default set at x2

mode.

ROG MAXIMUS XII EXTREME 1-9

Chapter 1

4. Fan and Pump headers

The Fan and Pump headers allow you to connect fans or pumps to cool the system.

• DO NOT forget to connect the fan cables to the fan headers. Insufficient air flow

inside the system may damage the motherboard components. These are not

jumpers! Do not place jumper caps on the fan headers!

• Ensure the cable is fully inserted into the header.

For water cooling kits, connect the pump connector to the W_PUMP+_1/2 header.

3.5 ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 utility is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore the

BIOS file when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can restore a

corrupted BIOS file using the motherboard support DVD or a USB flash drive that contains

the BIOS file.

The BIOS file in the motherboard support DVD may be older than the BIOS file published

on the ASUS official website. If you want to use the newer BIOS file, download the file at

https://www.asus.com/support/ and save it to a USB flash drive.

Recovering the BIOS

To recover the BIOS:

1. Turn on the system.

2. Insert the motherboard support DVD to the optical drive, or the USB flash drive

containing the BIOS file to the USB port.

3. The utility automatically checks the devices for the BIOS file. When found, the utility

reads the BIOS file and enters ASUS EZ Flash 3 automatically.

4. The system requires you to enter BIOS Setup to recover the BIOS setting. To ensure

system compatibility and stability, we recommend that you press <F5> to load default

BIOS values.

3.6 RAID configurations

The motherboard comes with the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology that supports RAID 0,

RAID 1, RAID 5 and RAID 10 configuration.

RAID definitions

RAID 0 (Data striping) optimizes two identical hard disk drives to read and write data in

parallel, interleaved stacks. Two hard disks perform the same work as a single drive but at a

sustained data transfer rate, double that of a single disk alone, thus improving data access

and storage. Use of two new identical hard disk drives is required for this setup.

RAID 1 (Data mirroring) copies and maintains an identical image of data from one drive to

a second drive. If one drive fails, the disk array management software directs all applications

to the surviving drive as it contains a complete copy of the data in the other drive. This RAID

configuration provides data protection and increases fault tolerance to the entire system.

Use two new drives or use an existing drive and a new drive for this setup. The new drive

must be of the same size or larger than the existing drive.

RAID 5 stripes both data and parity information across three or more hard disk drives.

Among the advantages of RAID 5 configuration include better HDD performance, fault

tolerance, and higher storage capacity. The RAID 5 configuration is best suited for

transaction processing, relational database applications, enterprise resource planning, and

other business systems. Use a minimum of three identical hard disk drives for this setup.

RAID 10 is data striping and data mirroring combined without parity (redundancy data)

having to be calculated and written. With the RAID 10 configuration you get all the benefits

of both RAID 0 and RAID 1 configurations. Use four new hard disk drives or use an existing

drive and three new drives for this setup.

For more information on configuring your RAID sets, please

refer to the RAID Configuration Guide which you can find at

https://www.asus.com/support, or by scanning the QR code.
