ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VIII HERO(WI-FI), 64GB, AMD X570, ATX, AM4, DDR4, USB3.2

Product Information

The Formula is the flagship of the X570 fleet, primed to be fitted into premium systems with custom liquid-cooling loops and push Ryzen to its limits. Whether you’re looking for utmost functionality or pure aesthetic expression, this board sits at the apex. It would look fantastic just displayed on a wall, let alone in a high-end build. The ROG Crosshair and Strix series carry premium SupremeFX audio solutions with integrated amplifiers and op-amps. Auto impedance detection lets you use even high-impedance audiophile headphones and get crystal-clear, distortion-free output. The onboard codecs are capable of a 120 dB output signal-to-noise ratio and 113 dB mic input SNR for crisp squad communication. The Crosshairs put an ESS Sabre DAC to good use pumping top-notch audio to the front-panel output, which is perfect for plugging in high-quality headphones. The Strix employ a similar SupremeFX S1220A solution that drops the dedicated front-panel DAC but otherwise keeps the same high-end circuitry. No matter the motherboard, the audio circuit design uses Japanese capacitors, interference shielding, and discrete traces for the left and right channels. High-performance networking:On-board Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with MU-MIMO support, 2.5 Gbps Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, both with ASUS LANGuard protection, and support for GameFirst VI software. If you’re building a liquid-cooled home for a new Ryzen CPU, the ROG Crosshair VIII Formula provides a premium foundation. From the design of the power circuitry and liquid-ready VRM cooler to aesthetic touches like the Gen 2 RGB headers and stylish armor, the Formula is the pinnacle of ROG X570 motherboards. Pricing and release date will be announced soon, so stay tuned. The ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (Wi-Fi) offers glorious air-cooled excess without going overboard

Those aiming for an ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero are undoubtedly aiming at the enthusiast end of the spectrum, and will therefore be matching it with at least the Ryzen 9 7900X we saw on test and a minimum of 32GB DDR5 6000 (the best currently for Ryzen 7000). Currently the ASUS board costs around 750 euros in Italy, a significant figure that is certainly not helped by inflation and the euro/dollar exchange rate, this ASUS is one of the most coveted, not only for performance and quality but als Memory kits with speeds well in excess of 3000 MT/s are commonplace these days, and Ryzen processors benefit from being paired with faster RAM. OptiMem tech on both boards offers improved signaling for added stability and higher performance when tweaking RAM, letting you take advantage of every drop of performance on tap. Cooling fast systems requires a steady flow of liquid or air, and the Strix boards offer two chassis hybrid fan headers along with AIO and custom pump headers for that endeavor. Rete ad alte prestazioni: On-board 2.5 Gbps Ethernet e Gigabit Ethernet con protezione ASUS LANGuard e supporto per il software GameFirst V. Instead of using phase doublers to touch all VRM phases, Asus uses a different topology, teaming, which the company says provides optimal transient response (versus doubling). The board is equipped with premium Infineon PoweRstage IR3555 rated at 60A each. In other words, there is plenty of capability in the VRM, and handling even the upcoming 16-core 3950X shouldn’t be an issue. Fortunately, the latest integrated power components can handle higher currents than the devices of yesteryear, making it possible to implement a simple circuit topology that isn't hamstrung by the processing lag of phase-doublers. That's why ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero utilizes teamed power stages to deliver higher burst current per phase, while maintaining the thermal performance of phase-doubled designs.

CONNECTIVITY

In the graphics department, no card on the market has saturated even PCIe 3.0 yet, at least in the x16 configuration. The largest immediate benefit is with high-speed storage. NVMe drives in RAID configurations can and will take advantage of the extra bandwidth to push never before seen sequential read and write speeds. With your average game, even the switch from SATA to NVMe can be hard to notice, let alone to an even faster and more expensive RAID array. This is more relevant for content creation and media production, where high-speed storage can save significant time and therefore money, which is further bolstered by the near-HEDT core counts on the high-end Ryzen 3000 CPUs. Of course, graphics cards will eventually catch up as well, so for the discerning gamer who only upgrades every three to five years, the new standard could prove a good investment as well. Between the PCIe slots and hidden below the heatsink and shroud are two M.2 slots. Both slots are able to run SATA or PCIe based m.2 modules. The primary, (top) slot will hold up to an 80mm drive, while the bottom slot supports up to 110mm. As is the norm on X570 due to the PCIe lane count, no SATA ports will be affected regardless of what type of M.2 module is used.

Configure the fan's operating speed manually or use pre-configured Standard, Silent, Turbo, or Full Speed modes. By default, system fans will automatically switch to full speed if the temperature reaches 75° C. Comprehensive thermal design: Passive chipset heatsink, M.2 aluminum heatsinks and ROG Water Cooling Zone.No matter which ROG X570 motherboard you choose, we want to ensure you can take advantage of the power of PCI Express 4.0. Every single PCIe x16 and M.2 slot on our lineup is wired with PCIe 4.0, so no matter the model, you can use a next-gen graphics card or NVMe drive without fear it'll be bandwidth-constrained. High wattage, low temperatures Whether you want to build a speedy HTPC, a compact gaming machine that can run circles around any console, or a compact desktop that can sit easily on a desk or shelf, the Strix X570-I Gaming fits the bill. Look for information on a release date and prices soon. Personalizzazione senza eguali: illuminazione Aura Sync RGB esclusiva ASUS, comprendente connettori RGB e intestazioni indirizzabili Gen. 2 Some readers have made a lot of fuss about these fans. But throughout my X570 testing, the vast majority of the board’s chipset fans have been inaudible over the other components. The eight SATA ports are more than most builders will need, and all are sourced from the chipset and support RAID 0, 1,5 and 10.

Fortunately, the latest integrated power components can handle higher currents than the devices of yesteryear, making it possible to implement a simple circuit topology that isn't hamstrung by the processing lag of phase-doublers. That's why the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero utilizes teamed power stages to deliver higher burst current per phase, while maintaining the thermal performance of phase-doubled designs. When talking about immersion, we tend to think of visuals first, but sound also plays an important role. The audio chips and associated circuitry on our X570 motherboards have been scrupulously designed for crystal-clear sound processing and output. Your teammates will appreciate the clarity of your communication, and woe to enemies who try to sneak up on you.
