EVGA NEW GUI BIOS*

Witness the power of EVGA's new fully armed and operational GUI BIOS! Upon booting your EVGA X299 MICRO ATX 2, select a conservative preset overclock using the Gamer Mode, or use the EVGA OC Robot to overclock your system automatically. Prefer to overclock yourself?

HIGHLY-EFFICIENT 14 PHASE DIGITAL VRM WITH ACTIVE COOLING


The X299 MICRO ATX 2 features a 14 phase digital VRM design capable of running and overclocking the most powerful Intel® Core™ X-series i9 processors available. More power requires…more power. An additional 8pin CPU power connector allows for higher overclocks and more stability. Even more power requires more cooling. A specially-designed VRM heatsink/fan keeps the VRM cool even while you're pushing your CPU to the limit.

HIGH GOLD CONTENT FOR CPU SOCKET

A higher volume of precious metal (150% Gold) use in the socket greatly improves the conductivity and produces a cleaner signal due to less resistance / impedance.
