Rampage V Extreme’s X-Socket II makes easy work of mounting existing LN2 pots to the latest O.C. socket. Use the supplied Star Key to replace LGA2011-v3 backplate with X-Socket II and you’re ready to super-cool with your existing evaporator!
Mounting your existing LN2 pot to the latest LGA2011-v3 socket can be tricky.

16. When the BIOS settings are too extreme to allow proper boot up, overclockers need to reset the BIOS to default settings to get system boot up. However, reset BIOS means the previous experimental settings are cleaned out and you need to recall your memory and key in all the settings to try again.
All BIOS settings are cleaned out !!

17. Just one quick tap of the Safe Boot button powers off your system and launches it into Safe Mode, with previous overclocking settings retained so you are ready to try again!

18. No Response!!

ROG ReTry Button
*Safe Boot & ReTry function very similarly. Once triggered, the system would immediately shutdown and power on by itself. The difference is that the Safe Boot would power up the system in Safe mode, while the ReTry button powers up according to the settings set in the BIOS.
Long press start button or switch off the PSU and wait for system shut down.
or
Traditional Forced Reboot
Sometimes, extreme overclocking causes as system to hang during the boot process and even tapping the reset button doesn't help. When this happens, OCers usually shut down the system and switch off or unplug the power supply to completely kill the power. However, this takes a lot of time, so ROG came up with a better solution!

SMALL DESIGN TWEAK—MASSIVE PERFORMANCE GAINS
Significantly smaller granules not only generate more normal shapes, but also allow for more densely packed powder
Smaller and more evenly distributed air gaps increase the over permeability of the choke.
Highly irregular shapes are harder to properly coat with insulator material.
Since the permeability of air is very low, having large air gaps lowers the overall permeability of the alloy

Permeability vs. DC Magnetizing Force
Maintains High Permeability for much longer!
Permeability is defined as the magnitude to which a material can become magnetized. A larger permeability means that material can be magnetized to a higher potential. Increasing permeability in an inductor (the choke) will reduce the number of windings needed to achieve the same inductance, and ultimately reduce power lost in the windings (copper loss)

Magnetization
Hysteresis loss occurs as the core is magnetized in opposite directions as the PWM switches on and off. It is clear that as the granules shrink in size, so does the hysteresis eye. The smaller the area (of the hysteresis eye), the less hysteresis loss.

Eddy currently loss can be reduced by decreasing the size of the granules. Despite the quantity of generated fields increasing, the overall power loss will still decrease. Large granules generally have rougher surfaces due to the manufacturing process. This can cause the insulating layer to be applied unevenly. Areas where the insulation is too thinly applied can allow large eddy current to develop and circulate through multiple granules.

All chokes suffer from inductance de-rating as current increases. The amount of energy the choke can store decreases as current increases. This is a critical specification, as complete loss of inductance causes VRM failure. This is the direct result of ROG engineer’s efforts to produce a higher permeability alloy—a more stable, effective choke.

SMALL DESIGN TWEAK—MASSIVE PERFORMANCE GAINS
As switching frequencies increase, eddy current loss and hysteresis loss occupy an increasing portion of total power loss in a choke—eventually becoming the primary cause of power loss. Since power loss is dissipated as heat, the results of the reduction of eddy current and hysteresis loss can tangibly be seen as a 31% drop in operating temperature.

29. ROG Engineers have integrated a Pulse-Width- Modulator (PWM) that allows the memory VRM to run at 1000kHz. The increase in frequency allows the DC ripple to be reduced by as much as 40%.
