BIOSTAR PRO Series Features

Nano Carbon Coating Heatsink – 2nd-gen PRO Series exclusive feature that improves overall cooling effect compared to traditional aluminum-extruded heatsink. Mesoporous carbon material expands the heat dissipation area and increases heat conductivity efficiently better than traditional heatsinks. |

Audio Art Capacitors – high-end Japanese Nichicon audio capacitors bring audio to life to offer a whole new artistic dimension and clarity to your listening experience.
