Top AM5 board with killer power and cool features

Ready to blow your mind with a motherboard that's basically a beast for serious tech enthusiasts? The ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Extreme is a powerhouse designed for AMD Socket AM5 systems that will make hardcore gamers and performance junkies weak in the knees.

Let's talk power management. This board comes loaded with a 24-pin ATX connector, dual 8-pin EPS connectors, and an 8-pin PCIe input. Its VRM solution goes way beyond the typical 22-phase design, which means rock-solid performance when you're pushing your Ryzen 9000X3D processor to the absolute limit. The E-ATX layout gives you tons of space for killer cooling setups that'll keep your system chilled under pressure.

Connectivity is where this motherboard truly shines. It has a primary M.2 slot with PCIe Gen 5 support and a heat pipe cooler, plus a secondary Gen 5 slot and two Gen 4 slots for storage lovers. A DIMM.2 module adds even more storage possibilities. Expansion slots include a PCIe 5.0 x16 and a PCIe 4.0 x4 configured as x16.

USB ports? This board is stacked. Two lightning-fast USB4 ports at 40 Gbps, a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 port screaming at 20 Gbps, and multiple 10 Gbps and 5 Gbps options. Networking nerds will drool over built-in Wi-Fi 7, a 10 GbE port, and a 5 GbE port. The audio setup is no joke either, with a Realtek codec, ESS DAC, and premium capacitors delivering crystal-clear sound. An awesome 4-inch full-color display over the VRM heatsinks lets you track system metrics in style. Cooling headers and water pump connections ensure your rig stays cool under the most demanding conditions.
