ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming Wifi DDR5 AMD Motherboard

The ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi DDR5 is a full-size ATX motherboard built on the AMD X670 chipset and designed for the AM5 socket, making it compatible with AMD Ryzen 7000 Series desktop processors. It occupies the standard ATX footprint of 305 mm × 244 mm and is engineered to support demanding gaming, content creation, and AI-oriented PC workloads. At the heart of the board's performance story is comprehensive PCIe 5.0 support. The platform provides two PCIe 5.0 x16 slots from the CPU (supporting x16 or x8/x4 configurations), plus three CPU-sourced PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slots and one chipset PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slot, totalling four M.2 slots alongside four SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Storage versatility is further enhanced by AMD RAIDXpert2 support for NVMe RAID 0/1/10 and SATA RAID 0/1/10. Memory support extends to four DDR5 DIMM slots with a maximum capacity of 128 GB, running at speeds from 4800 MT/s up to 6400+ MT/s (OC), with support for AMD EXPO profiles and OptiMem II for stable high-frequency operation. ECC and non-ECC unbuffered modules are both accepted. Connectivity is handled by Intel 2.5 Gb Ethernet with ASUS LANGuard protection, and the onboard Wi-Fi 6E (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax, 2×2, 2.4/5/6 GHz) with Bluetooth 5.2. The rear I/O panel provides 13 USB ports in total: one USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C, ten USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, and two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports, along with DisplayPort 1.4 (up to 8K@60 Hz) and HDMI 2.1 (up to 4K@60 Hz) outputs for integrated graphics. Audio is handled by the ROG SupremeFX system using the Realtek ALC4080 codec, delivering 7.1 surround sound, 120 dB SNR on playback, 113 dB SNR on recording, and up to 32-bit/384 kHz playback. The Savitech SV3H712 amplifier, premium capacitors, audio shielding, gold-plated jacks, and rear optical S/PDIF out round out the audio section. Overclocking enthusiasts will find Dynamic OC Switcher, Core Flex, an isolated CPU base clock generator, AMD Precision Boost Overdrive support, and AI Overclocking tools within the UEFI BIOS (256 Mb Flash ROM, UEFI AMI). Thermal management is supported by VRM heatsinks, M.2 heatsinks (including a bundled PCIe 5.0 M.2 heatsink), and a dedicated AIO pump header alongside one CPU fan, one CPU OPT fan, and five chassis fan headers. Build-quality features include SafeSlot reinforced PCIe slots, SafeDIMM, ProCool II power connectors, BIOS FlashBack, Clear CMOS button, Q-Code display, Q-LED diagnostics, M.2 Q-Latch tool-free installation, and a pre-mounted I/O shield. AURA Sync RGB lighting is supported through one AURA RGB header and three Addressable Gen 2 headers. The board ships with a 3-year warranty.
