With PCIe® Slot Q-Release Slim, simply tilt the card toward the latching mechanism to automatically unlock it from the PCIe slot. This makes upgrades and maintenance easier than ever before. Users will no longer need to fiddle with a tricky latch or even press a button to release their graphics card from the slot. M.2 Q-Release
The M.2 heatsink features a convenient switch to quickly remove it, eliminating the need for tiny screws during SSD installation. Its strong locking mechanism also provides a snug contact surface, helping to ensure reliable heat dissipation for your SSD.
Switch may be a lever or button, depending on motherboard model. M.2 Q-Slide
This new sliding M.2 latch design supports sizes 2242, 2260 and 2280 for easy device installation. NEW M.2 Q-LATCH
The new Q-Latch design allows for tool-free installation or removal of M.2 SSDs with just one press. Q-ANTENNA
With Q-Antenna, attaching a WiFi antenna to your PC is now easy and fast. Instead of slowly rotating two fasteners until they finally lock in, they just snap into place. Less hassle, and more consistent performance. Q-LED
The on-board Q-LED troubleshooting lights give PC builders a quick indicator to confirm that key components ? CPU, RAM, graphics card, storage devices ? are functioning normally during startup. Builders can use the Q-LED feature to correct power delivery issues affecting their motherboard, and it can also alert them when memory modules have not been properly installed--even before attempting to boot a newly built PC. CLEAR CMOS & BIOS FLASHBACK™
The Clear CMOS button quickly resets BIOS settings to factory default. It can also be used to reboot the PC if
