During the “Performance Matters – Helium Night” at Computex Taipei, the overclocker Der8auer was able to achieve a monstrously high 7.562GHz overclock using Intel’s new Kaby Lake-X 7740K CPU and ASUS’ newly announced Rampage VI APEX.  
The Rampage VI APEX is the second motherboard to hit ASUS’ new APEX lineup, coming with a design that is for overclocking first and foremost and comes with a lot of unique design options and features that are designed to help keep CPUs stable when using sub-zero coolants like LN2 (Liquid Nitrogen) or LH2 (Liquid Helium).

In order to achieve overclocking perfection, ASUS have actually had to cut features from their APEX lineup, only using a single DIMM slot per channel for optimal trace routing and improved overclocking potential while using X299’s 4-channel memory. 

The Rampage VI APEX has already achieved several HWBOT world records, showcasing some strong performance from Intel’s new X299 platform.
