NPU BOOST

The integrated NPU in Intel^® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows — and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%.

* The overclocking performance may vary depending on the CPU series and motherboard used.
** Testing was conducted with an Intel^® Core™ Ultra 9 285K processor , ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme motherboard, GeForce RTX™ 4090 24GB graphics card, and XPG Lancer DDR5 memory modules (model AX5U6000C4016G).

Asynchronous Clock

For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Strix B860-A features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, NPU, D2D and NGU. Drive memory, NPU and others performance to their absolute brink while maintaining the stability of CPU clock domains.
Separate CPU BCLK from other domains for unfettered overclocking.

DDR5 DOMINATION

Enhanced signal routing can push enthusiast-grade kits well beyond the 9 GT/s threshold on the Strix B860-A.
