ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi AMD AM5 X870 ATX Motherboard 18+2+2 Power Stages, Dynamic OC Switcher, Core Flex, DDR5 AEMP, WiFi 7, 5X M.2, PCIe® 5.0, Q-Release Slim, USB4®, AI OCing & Networking | GAMING WIFI

The ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WIFI is an excellent motherboard and exactly what I expect from ASUS ROG. The build quality feels premium, the layout is clean, and it has plenty of high end features for a serious gaming PC. The 18+2+2 power stage design is great for AM5 CPUs, and the board has strong support for DDR5, PCIe 5.0, multiple M.2 drives, USB4, WIFI 7, and 10Gb Ethernet. I also really like the ASUS features like Q-Release, BIOS Flash, AI Overclocking, AI Cooling, and the easy setup options that make building and tuning the PC much smoother. Overclocking my Ryzen 7 9800X3D with this board was simple. Overall, this is a powerful, feature-packed motherboard that looks great, performs great, and feels built to last. If you are building a high end AM5 gaming setup, this board is absolutely worth it.

I recently upgraded my system to AMD's latest X870 platform and chose the ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi as the foundation for my high-end build. Having worked with several flagship motherboards, I can confidently say this board is an absolute beast and worth every penny for serious builders and overclockers.Unmatched Power Delivery and StabilityThe main selling point of the X870E-E is its power delivery system (VRMs). This board handles the most demanding Ryzen 9 chips with ease. Under heavy synthetic loads and during intensive compiling tasks, the VRM temperatures remained incredibly low—something lesser boards struggle with. For anyone pushing modern CPUs to their limits, this stability is non-negotiable.Furthermore, DDR5 memory stability is rock solid. Initial setup with my 6000MHz EXPO kit was flawless; a quick setting in the UEFI and it booted perfectly with no fuss. This is a huge relief, as DDR5 can sometimes be notoriously finicky on new platforms. The Q-Release PCIe Slot button on the side is a small but brilliant quality-of-life feature that makes GPU removal effortless.Connectivity Built for the Next DecadeASUS didn't skimp on connectivity, making this board genuinely future-proof.Storage: The sheer number of M.2 slots is impressive, including a dedicated PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot. This is essential if you plan on running the fastest NVMe drives available now or in the near future. The quick-release M.2 heatsink design makes installation incredibly fast.Networking: The inclusion of WiFi 7 and 2.5G Ethernet is perfect for low-latency gaming and high-speed local networking. Even if you don't have WiFi 7 infrastructure yet, the capability is there, meaning you won't need an adapter for years.Aesthetics: The subtle but effective $\text{AURA}$ Sync lighting and dark, aggressive heat sinks look phenomenal in an all-black case build. The design feels premium, not overly flashy.Final VerdictIf you are investing in an $\text{AM}5$ CPU (especially a Ryzen $7$ or Ryzen $9$) and intend to keep this system for many years, the ROG Strix X870E-E is the smart choice. It eliminates the guesswork regarding stability and provides all the performance, power, and high-speed I/O you could possibly need. This motherboard is a cornerstone component that delivers confidence and blazing performance. Highly recommended.

ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi [EDIT: after reading all of the $1000+ boards' manuals, along with all the other X870 manuals, this board has the best mitigation of limitations of all the boards. To me, it offers the best solution for limited PCIe bandwidth, and keeps every premium feature.] Has great features, but limited functionally. There are 5 nvme slots, 3 are gen 5, and 2 of those share bandwidth with the only pci-ex16 gen 5 slot on the board. This means that if you use either of the shared bandwidth m.2 slots, then the gen 5 pcie gets downgraded to x8. I am only using the independent m.2 slot because of this. There are only 2 pcie slots in total, the other being a pcie x16 4th gen. I haven't tested the USB 4.0 yet, which is why I bought the board, and I easily switched the ai overclocking on. AI overclocking is amazingly effective, and easy to use. I'm overclocking every system component that I can, and I did it all with a few clicks. Amazing performance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The major headache Running this board with CMK64GX5M2B6000Z30 RAM was a headache and a half. I had to flash the bios with the most recent version, hard reset the board's RAM interactions by removing the power and CMOS battery then holding the power button for 60 seconds, then train an individual stick (the first stick would not train for an hour so I switched them), then add the other stick creating a 2 stick arrangement, and then the other stick was trained. As mentioned, the first stick could not train, so I had to switch the sticks, and luckily the second one trained. It took about 7 minutes for each successful stick training period. I then had to set up my system in the bios again. But I'm overclocking everything with the board's AI overclocking, and everything is extremely fast. I'm very happy with the result.

I have had nothing but issues with certain features on this motherboard since I got it, Asus Support pretty much gave me 2 possible solutions, I tried both while in chat support with them, and after they both failed to fix the issues, their answer was "RMA it" - like I can afford to have down time on my only PC lol Things that are great about this board: ECLK OCing on the CPU works well, I have a 7800X3D in it currently and I can push an extra ~200MHz over the normal 5025MHz max boost a 7800X3D has, without issues, and it's stable. The software suite - some hate Asus Armory Crate, and I used to be one of those people on older generations of their software, but it's better now in my opinion. RGB control is pretty good, the different settings you can use are quite nice, I in particular like Starry Night with the background set to off/black, and the colors set to Random, looks pretty awesome. Fan control is also very good, you can set each fan header to it's own curve, and control that curve with multiple temperatures at once (so if the CPU or GPU gets hot, you can have the fans ramp up based off both of those at the same time, so whether you're gaming or doing something CPU intensive, the fans will ramp up). The Q-Release slots are nice, no more having to try & get that stupid GPU-slot lock to pop off so you can get your GPU out. Before we get in to the bad, I should note I use this system for a combination of rendering (which is why the 9950X3D is an incoming upgrade) and gaming. What were the issues I am having you ask? Well, apparently it's all related, at least partially, to RAM settings/clocks, BUT the primary issue is that the 2nd & 3rd M.2 slot are completely messed up unless I run the system with NO XMP/DOCP/EXPO settings, and even then if I manually tune the RAM, it STILL happens randomly. This has happened with two different RAM kits of different sizes, I had a 2x16GB CL30 6000MHz kit, and I'm not running a 2x48GB kit that I have set to CL30 at 6000MHz as well. Sometimes the 2nd & 3rd M.2 slots will just not work at all, sometimes they'll run at PCIe 1.0 x4 (which in case you didn't know, is BASICALLY physical HDD speeds, less than 500MB/s maximum speed). If I enable the EXPLICIT setting in the BIOS to ENABLE both of those M.2 slots & set the GPU slot to x8 speed ... it disables both slots & still sets the GPU slot to x8 speed. If I enable the setting to DISABLE the slots and set the GPU slot to x16, it will still show them as being accessible half the time. Any time I set the RAM speed to what it should be (6000MHz) those 2 M.2 slots will randomly appear or disappear from one power up to the next - sometimes from one REBOOT to the next. This has happened across multiple BIOS updates, including 2 BIOSes that Asus said would "fix the issue" later on. I went back to Asus because I wanted to give them another chance after the whole debacle they've had with poor customer service etc in past years - now I'm regretting ever making that decision. I will be purchasing a different motherboard (liikely an Asrock Taichi) at some point in combination with a 9950X3D, at which point I'll be RMAing this motherboard with Asus, and reselling the replacement as I want nothing to do with it. I highly recommend NOT purchasing this motherboard, if you search Asus Support forums, I am not the only one that has experienced these issues, there's dozens of other users on there that have experienced the same things, and who knows how many others that just "haven't noticed" because they're not trying to use all 5 M.2 slots.

I have used PC parts from most of the major manufactures. Some I have found to have equal build quality, but lacking in some other aspect. Normally horrible customer support or discontinuing product and not providing updated bios or drivers after that point. I have another Asus motherboard that runs my containerized applications. It's an ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero X570. Yes Asus makes workstation motherboards, but this was repurposed when I bout this new ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi board. I've been using it for about four months now and have had no issues*. No hardware comparability issues, and the default bios fan curves work great for me for a good balance of cooling and a low db noise level. The one complaint I have with every manufacture is their custom software. It would be a much better world if they all worked together to have a single dashboard for monitoring your system and keeping your drivers up to date. It would be even better if that project were fully open sourced. By that I mean the dashboard, not the drivers as many of those come from specific chip-set manufactures. That said the new Armoury-Crate dashboard application is far better than the one one that was originally available when I bought my older ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero X570. It's this type of continual improvement and listening to the community that in my opinion pushes Asus in front of the competition. While I do buy from Asus' ROG gaming line, I do so because I need the performance their products in this line deliver. I primarily work in Blender3D and Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Studio. With this new ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi board works great for that in Windows, I often do a god bit of my work in Linux. That is what the asterisk above comes in. This is not a negative on Asus, but rather the chip-set manufactures in that there are many things that do not work in Linux at this moment. For the most part Asus can only influence the manufactures to work with the Linux community, and at the same time they cannot only use parts that are Linux compatible because that would mean not using the newest and or best components available. As for Asus' support, it's good. Everything could always be improved, but in the few interactions I've I did not get someone asking me for information that I had already provided in my original request. This is an issue I've had with many other companies and I hope Asus continues with good support and taking feedback from the community and content providers like Linuxx Tech Tips, GamerNexus, Roman (der8auer) Hartung. If you are looking for a new motherboard, go to Asus' website and use their comparison tools. This may not be the right board for you, but they certainly have one that is. Don't hesitate to contact their support to ask question. The biggest reason people complain about a company instead of a specific product is they did not do enough research and they did not reach out to the manufacture for advice. If that manufacture doesn't want to help you then move on. So far Asus has been helpful, even when they have had to tell me that my question, usually Linux related, isn't something they can answer and that I'm better getting an accurate answer from that community.

You get pretty much every bell and whistles that comes with a BIOS, the ports are really nice especially with high bandwidth. Easy to work with especially when your building your PC. I would say it's the best if you don't want to buy the CROSSHAIR version of ROG's motherboards.

Had this MB for some time now, and it works like a champ! Very well constructed and built. I have it paired with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D/64 Gigs of Corsair memory/ All SSD drives (except where I have a hard disk for temp backup)/AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700. For cooling, I'm using a ROG RYUJIN III 360 ARGB Extreme. This is a bit of a weak link, as the software for running the cooler in Windows 11 is basically AWFUL. ASUS really lets the side down with this. In fairness, it is working OK using BIOS settings, but I am unable to use the cooler's screen for display or change fan settings from Windows. But this Motherboard works really well and not found a single complaint with the Motherboard.

Davvero bel prodotto fantastico come viene descritto

Carte mère acheté pour équiper un 9950x3D fonctionne bien je n'ai pas eu de problème.

Sai de um Intel i7 13700k de uma placa rog Strix z790-h problematica, com problemas de time de memoria e muito problemas de tela azul, para a paz completa dessa placa mae e processador AMD 9800x3d, ganho de uns 20 % e a paz. pensei será que devo comprar a versao HERO?(ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X870E HERO - Placa-mãe AMD X870) pesquisei bastante e minha conclusão é Não!! essa faz tudo que a outra faz. estou pra finalizar e comprar o GEN5 de M.2 e concluir a avaliação. ótima placa. recomendo.

I'm very impressed and satisfied with this mobo. It has an excellent bios layout making it easy to navigate. There are a plethora of overclocking options that I've been playing with. Overclocks with a Ryzen 7700x very well. There are an abundant connectivity options available. I haven't experienced issues that other users have mentioned. Love the fact that it's going to support the next generation Amd cpus. There are several solutions to the long memory learning boot times on YouTube found in the bios. The Bios Q dashboard is a welcome feature showing hardware connections and corresponding bios settings. This is definitely the best Amd board I've owned and one of the best out there. All nvme installation must be tooless for the next generation just like other current boards. I have decided to give Asus another chance since their customer relations debacle. From my experience EVGA had the best customer service in the industry. If they don't get it right adios for good.

Item arrived non DOA and authentic ASUS product. Great Mobo.
