Asus ROG STRIX X870-A GAMING WIFI AMD AM5 DDR5 ATX USB4 Wi-Fi 7 Motherboard
Elevate your build with the ROG Strix X870-A Gaming WiFi. Featuring a sleek white PCB and support for AMD Ryzen™ 9000 Series processors, this motherboard delivers the power and connectivity needed for advanced AI applications. With DDR5 support, full PCIe 5.0 capabilities, dual USB4® ports, and WiFi 7, it’s the ultimate blend of style and performance. 16+2+2 power stages Dynamic OC Switcher Core Flex DDR5 support with AEMP WiFi 7 with ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna 4 M.2 slots PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlots with PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim 2 USB4 ports USB 10Gbps Type-C with PD 3.0 up to 30W AI Overclocking AI Cooling II AI Networking II Aura Sync RGB lighting Asus AI Intelligence AI Overclocking—ASUS AI Overclocking profiles the CPU and cooling to predict the optimal configuration and push the system to its limits. AI Networking II—AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of WiFi 7. AI Cooling II—Balance the thermals and acoustics of any build with a single click. Overclocking Dynamic OC Switcher – Dynamic OC Switcher maximizes CPU performance by letting you set current and temperature thresholds to automatically switch between a manual overlock for heavy multithreaded workloads and Precision Boost Overdrive for single-threaded tasks. The latest Overclocking Load Guard has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking. Core Flex empowers you to smash limits farther than ever before by letting you control the clock, power, and thermals in creative new ways. In its simplest form, you can maximize the base clock during lighter loads and set breakpoints to reduce CPU core frequency as temperature or current increases gradually. However, the system is extremely adaptable, supporting multiple user-controlled functions that can manipulate power, current, and temperature limits independently so that you can bend CPU performance to your will. Asynchronous Clock – For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Strix X870-A features a built-in clock generator that isolates the CPU base clock from memory, PCIe, and the Infinity Fabric speed. Drive CPU performance to its absolute brink while maintaining the stability of related clock domains.PBO Enhancement – AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance. By aggressively tuning the PBO parameters, AMD’s algorithm can leverage the motherboard’s robust power solution to ramp up performance even higher. Memory DDR5 Domination – The Strix X870-A is primed and ready for enthusiast-grade kits courtesy of vast AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support.AEMP – ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules. Cooling M.2 Backplate – An integrated backplate helps ensure that high-performance drives can deliver peak performance, even when airflow is restricted.M.2 Heatsinks – Heatsinks cover every slot to help keep onboard NVME SSDs at optimal temperatures for consistent performance and reliability.VRM Heatsink Array – Two thick VRM heatsinks are connected by a heat pipe, sharing cooling capacity across VRMs and providing ample surface area and mass to handle the power needs of high-performance AMD Ryzen 9000 Series processors.High-conductivity Thermal Pads – High-quality thermal pads are utilized between power stages and heatsinks, helping to improve heat transfer and reduce VRM operating temperatures.CPU Fan Headers – A dedicated pair of PWM/DC fan headers provides easy access to CPU coolers.AIO Pump Fan Header – A dedicated PWM/DC header connects self-contained water-cooling setups.4-pin Fan Headers – The Strix X870-A features five chassis fan headers, each supporting auto-detection of PWM or DC fans. Leading Connectivity WIFI 7 – The revolutionary WiFi 7 is up to 4.8X times faster than standard WiFi 6, thanks to tech like 320 MHz channels on the 6GHz band and 4K QAM. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming, and industrial IoT.ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna – Dual transceivers support the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands to enable faster throughput, with directional sensitivity to improve signal quality and cover greater distances. Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet – Onboard Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost, with speeds that are 2.5 times faster than standard Ethernet connections for speedy file transfers, low-latency gaming, and high-res video streaming.PCIe 5.0 – Fully embracing the new standard
