Compact Design
 
Impact's unusual Mini-DTX form factor is a deliberate choice. Many Mini-ITX cases ship with enough space for a dual-slot graphics card, meaning there's typically unused space below the bottom PCIe slot – space that could be utilized to mount more components or enable additional features. Being marginally taller than mini-ITX allows Impact to exploit this unused space, allowing ROG engineers to squeeze in features while still fitting a large proportion of mini-ITX PC cases.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Impact
 
DIY Friendly
 
ROG patented pre-mounted I/O shield
A convenient fit for all cases.
 
Impact control IV
Onboard control card adds BIOS Flashback, Clr CMOS, Q-Code and FlexKey* functionality, simplifying firmware access, updates, and debugging.
 
Addressable RGB Headers

Heatsinks
 
We've fully exploited the extra space afforded by Impact's Mini-DTX form factor to dedicate more space to the board's VRM and chipset cooling design.
 
 
 
 
 
Active VRM and Chipset Combo Heatsink
 
  • Dual Custom Delta Superflo Fans: The custom low-noise fans feature a high-durability bearing with a 60,000-hour L10 lifespan.
  • Dual-Intake Fan Bracket: A unique brace design recesses the fans to enable reliable ventilation in tight spaces.
  • Finned Heatsink: The heatsink fin density is optimized to maximize surface area while maintaining a low-resistance exhaust path.
