ROG Crosshair X870E Hero
The ROG Crosshair X870E Hero stands at the pinnacle of the ASUS X870E / X870 lineup. Dark hues predominate across this motherboard, drawing attention to premium metallic textures, nickel-plated surfaces, sleek contours, and a stereoscopic visual effect on the large M.2 and chipset heatsink. This board also features the ASUS Polymo Lighting II effect. This upgraded lighting module built into the I/O shroud provides more dynamic RGB illumination for the ROG logo.
The ROG Crosshair X870E Hero high-end feature set gives it the power and connectivity users need for demanding AI applications. To help unleash top-end AMD Ryzen 9000 Series CPUs, it boasts a robust power solution with 18+2+2 power stages, ProCool II power connectors, MicroFine alloy chokes, and premium metallic capacitors. To keep this robust power solution cool, the board includes massive heatsinks integrated with the I/O cover. They are joined by an L-shaped heat pipe and connected to the power stages with high-conductivity thermal pads.
ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi
As the highest-performance board of the Strix family, the ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi delivers a potent blend of gaming prowess and bold style. Angular accents sweep across the board’s heatsinks alongside distinctive ROG iconography, while a novel curved I/O shroud draws attention to its RGB LED illuminated ROG logo. A new bevel design brings a striking look to the M.2 Combo Sink that is just a little different from every viewing angle.
ROG Strix X870-F Gaming WiFi and ROG Strix X870-A Gaming WiFi
The ROG Strix X870-F Gaming WiFi and ROG Strix X870-A Gaming cater to builders who love the style of higher-end options but are looking for a more-mainstream feature set. Their 16+2+2 power stages make them a great fit for a CPU like the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X, and they are primed and ready for fast DDR5 memory kits, PCIe 5.0 graphics cards and M.2 drives.
ROG Strix X870-I Gaming WiFi
Thanks to the new NVIDIA SFF-Ready guidelines, it is easier than ever to build a small-form-factor PC. When users purchase an SFF-Ready chassis and graphics card, they can be confident that their new graphics card fits comfortably in the case with enough room for power cables and cables. For a feature-rich yet space saving motherboard option for a SFF build, ASUS offers the ROG Strix X870-I Gaming WiFi.
TUF Gaming X870-Plus WiFi

ProArt X870E-Creator WiFi
Thus far, ASUS introduced its X870E and X870 motherboards that cater to gamers. Yet users might have ambitions for an AI PC that extend past the world of gaming. Creative professionals like engineers, designers, videographers, animators and game developers also stand to benefit from AI-powered technologies. For them, the ProArt X870E-Creator WiFi might be the perfect fit.
Prime X870-P WiFi and Prime X870-P
For years, many PC builders have sworn by reliable performance, rich features, and unobtrusive design of ASUS Prime motherboards. The Prime X870-P WiFi and Prime X870-P motherboards carry this legacy forward by providing everything users need for a great experience with AMD Ryzen 9000 Series CPUs.

Otherwise, the Prime X870-P stands ready with its 2.5 G Ethernet port.
New AIO CPU cooler options for X870E builds
These new X870E and X870 motherboards deserve a cooling solution that is an aesthetic fit — especially if users are building in a panoramic chassis or a case with a wide side window. To match the show-stopping style and high-end performance of the ROG Crosshair X870E Hero, ASUS is debuting the ROG Ryujin III 360 ARGB Extreme.
This AIO CPU cooler is equipped with an Asetek Emma Gen8 V2 pump for optimal cooling performance, and its embedded pump fan assists in cooling the motherboard’s VRMs. Daisy-chainable ROG ARGB fans – thickened to 30 mm for high airflow, more static pressure, greater noise optimization and better performance – let users connect lighting and fan control with one cable for easy installation and cable management. ASUS has even upgraded the LCD display from last-gen Ryujin models. The Extreme boasts a 3.5-inch display with 640x480 60 Hz resolution which can be customized through Armoury Crate to display exclusive ROG wallpaper, real-time system information, or personalized content.
