About this product

Unleash the full potential of AMD Ryzen™ 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series processors with the ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E HERO ATX Gaming Motherboard—a platform built for high-end overclocking, AI-enhanced performance, and future-proof connectivity. This AI PC-ready motherboard boasts an advanced 18+2+2 power stage design, featuring 110A-rated power stages and reinforced thermal solutions to ensure clean, stable power delivery under the most demanding workloads. Its signature Polymo Lighting II I/O shroud adds dynamic RGB brilliance to your rig, delivering not only elite performance but also unmistakable ROG style.


With Dynamic OC Switcher, users can seamlessly toggle between Precision Boost Overdrive and manual overclocks based on workload intensity, while Overclocking Load Guard prevents instability during extreme performance pushes. The Crosshair X870E HERO takes memory tuning further with support for DDR5 speeds up to 8600+ MT/s (OC), NitroPath DRAM Technology, and ASUS-exclusive Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) for PMIC-restricted DIMMs. DIMM Fit further ensures compatibility and stability by analyzing module characteristics for optimal configuration—making it ideal for overclockers, gamers, and creative professionals alike.


Built for speed, the motherboard offers five M.2 slots, including PCIe 5.0 support for next-gen NVMe SSDs, and dual PCIe 5.0 x16 slots for powerful GPU configurations. It features Wi-Fi 7, Realtek 5Gb and 2.5Gb Ethernet, and dual USB4® Type-C® (40Gbps) ports for ultrafast data transfers, along with front USB Type-C® with 60W Power Delivery for high-speed charging and device support. These high-performance specs are complemented by seamless Thunderbolt™ 4 video output, giving users the ability to connect external 8K displays or ultra-fast storage drives without compromise.


Thermal management is finely tuned with expansive VRM heatsinks, hybrid fan headers, and AI Cooling II, which intelligently balances noise and thermals with a single click. DIY builders will appreciate ASUS Q-Design for simplified assembly and error-free installation. Sync your RGB components using Aura Sync to achieve a cohesive visual setup, and enjoy pristine audio with ESS® ES9219 QUAD DAC and SupremeFX Shielding Technology.
