ASUS released its premium AM5 motherboard aimed at tech enthusiasts needing top performance. The ROG Crosshair X870E Extreme appeared first at a Chinese launch event alongside the overclocking-focused Apex series. This E-ATX board features a robust 20+2+2 phase power system with high amperage delivery. It holds 2 PCIe 5.0 slots for graphics cards, 5 M.2 slots for storage drives, with two supporting Q-DIMM.2 technology.
Users will find four USB-C ports on the board, including two that run at 40 Gbps with USB4 support. Network options include Realtek 5 GbE and Marvell 10 GbE Ethernet connections and Wi-Fi 7 wireless technology. The motherboard arrives on store shelves in late April with a Chinese price of around $1,400 USD, making it one of the most expensive choices available for AMD processors using the AM5 socket standard.
