ASUS introduced the ROG (Republic of Gamers) OC Station. The OC Station is a pure hardware-based, bay-mounted device with a large 3-inch display that takes OCing to a whole new level of ease, accuracy and sophistication. According to Asus, when this Station is used in conjunction with ROG motherboards, the strikingly-designed OC Station grants users on-the-fly access to overclocking parameters, ROG-exclusive features, fan speeds, system information and even a photo slideshow function.
The OC Station provides users with quick access to system voltages and frequencies without having to enter the BIOS. Users can overclock their systems on-the-fly via a knob, even during busy benchmark runs or actual gameplay. The OC Station also interfaces seamlessly with the embedded iROG controller on ROG motherboards, enabling users to manage ROG-exclusive features such as CPU Level Up and ASUS EPU-6 Engine at a hardware level. This allows users to achieve performance boosts and perform energy consumption tweaks instantly.
The OC Station has 3-inch display and an adjustable faceplate which can be tilted upward 30 degrees. The OC Station can be installed in virtually any PC case, where it occupies two 5.25-inch drive bays.
Features:
• Pure hardware-based OC control
• Real-time access to system voltages, frequencies and fan speeds
• Intuitive user interface with 3” TFT-LCD display
• Temperature monitoring for critical components
• Alarm thresholds with audio alerts
• Stylish design with adjustable faceplate (tilts upward 30 degrees)
