ASUS Debuts TUF Sabertooth X99 Motherboard

The motherboard is compatible with all NVM Express storage options, and features built-in USB 3.1 and all-new TUF Detective technology.

ASUS has introduced the TUF Sabertooth X99, a desktop motherboard that supports all NVM Express storage devices, including PCI Express (PCIe), M.2 PCI Express, and the latest 2.5-inch solid-state drives (SSDs) with SFF-8639 via the mini SAS HD connector on the Hyper Kit expansion card.

TUF’s newest motherboard additionally introduces all-new TUF Detective technology that displays live system information on smartphones and tablets, right at users’ fingertips. TUF Detective is a free companion app that allows users to monitor key parameters, detect and diagnose errors, and control the PC’s power status.

TUF Sabertooth X99 is equipped for ultimate cooling with exclusive TUF Thermal Armor, TUF Thermal Radar 2, and TUF ICe technologies. The motherboard also features TUF Fortifier and TUF Components, including 10K capacitors, TUF chokes, and a military-grade MOSFET.

TUF Sabertooth X99 is based on the latest Intel X99 Express chipset for high performance and compatibility with the LGA 2011-v3 socket Intel Core i7 processors.

The motherboard includes USB 3.1 connectivity with dual USB 3.1 Type-A ports built in, providing USB data-transfer speeds of up to 10Gbit/s — or twice (2X) as fast USB 3.0.
