Test bench and tests

TESTING BENCH
Processor:	Intel i7-7700k.
Base plate:	Asus Maximus IX Apex
Memory:	Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR4
Heatsink	Corsair H115
HDD	Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB.
Graphic card	Nvidia GTX 1080.
Power supply	EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2

To check the stability of the i7-7700k processor at 4500 MHZ and the motherboard we have stressed with Prime 95 Custom and air cooling. The graphics we have used is an Nvidia GTX 1080, without further delay, let's see the results obtained in our tests with a 1920 x 1080 monitor.

BIOS

As we are used to, Asus offers the most stable BIOS of all in socket 1151. It allows us to monitor, perform extreme overclock and configure almost any option we need. Without a doubt, the example to follow for other manufacturers. Chapó!

Final words and conclusion about Asus Maximus IX Apex

The Asus Maximus IX Apex is an ATX format motherboard that incorporates a very daring design. It has some fantastic high-performance components: 8 + 2 power phases, RGB Aura lighting and the double SLOT M.2 equipped in the new DIMM 2 module.

In our tests we have easily reached 5 GHz and 3200 MHz memories. Performance has been sublime with a GTX 1080. Running any title in Full HD, 2K or 4K with really good rates.

We recommend reading the best motherboards on the market.

As we always comment, the BIOS is one of the best… not to mention the best we have ever tried (The entire ROG & TUF series works this way). The sound card is another of the beneficiaries of the improvements of this new generation. Although signed by the Realtek chipset, the Supreme FX ROG allows us to install high-end headphones and a more crystalline sound. Totally recommended?

Currently it can be purchased in online stores for a price of approximately 300 euros. Knowing that it is designed for a very specific audience: users who want exclusives or professional overclockers, we believe that it is a magnificent option. Since in the same sector we must choose plates of 400 or 500 euros.
