Tune It Your Way
Comprehensive controls form the foundation of the ASUS Prime series. The Prime A520 motherboard packs flexible tools to tune every aspect of your system, enabling you to tweak performance settings to perfectly match the way you work—maximizing your productivity.

All-Around Energy Efficiency
With the Energy Processing Unit (EPU), you'll enjoy system-wide power savings. The EPU automatically optimizes power consumption and maximizes energy savings with Away mode.

Flexible Cooling Controls
Fan Xpert software provides comprehensive control over system fans.
Auto-Tuning mode configures all parameters with a single click. There is also an Extreme Quiet mode that reduces fan speeds to below the default minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet during light tasks. Fans can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS.

Precise Digital Power Control
Precise digital power control. The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage drop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings. It also allows you to fine-tune your CPU for ultimate stability and performance.

Cooler by Design
PRIME A520M-K is engineered with an array of hybrid fan headers and features comprehensive cooling controls that are configurable via Fan Xpert software or through the UEFI BIOS, ensuring your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.

Multiple Temperature Sources
Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert allows you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.

4-Pin PWM/DC Fan
Onboard fan headers support auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.

Smart Protection
A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from overheating and overcurrent.

Build on a Solid Foundation
The Prime A520 motherboard provides all the fundamentals to boost daily productivity, so your system will be ready for action with stable power, intuitive cooling, and flexible transfer options. The Prime A520 motherboard features an M.2 slot supporting data-transfer speeds up to 32Gbps via x4 PCI Express 3.0 bandwidth. It also offers high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A connectivity.
