Milan, 28 September 2022 – ASUS announces a full range of motherboards based on AMD X670, presenting a rich and detailed lineup that includes the ROG Crosshair, ROG Strix, TUF Gaming, ProArt and Prime series.
Three generations of AMD Ryzen™ processors have captivated gamers, professional users, and creators alike. With numerous cores available, these chips excel in tasks requiring extra parallel processing power, such as intensive multitasking, video rendering, 3D modelling, or gaming sessions streamed live. AMD now presents its fourth series of CPUs, and ASUS announces the motherboards X670E and X670, designed to fully harness the potential of these new chips.
"ASUS confirms its presence and commitment with its five distinct X670 motherboard series, offering users an enormous range of options perfectly matching AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors", said David McAfee, Corporate Vice President and General Manager, Client Channel Business Unit, AMD. "Thanks to a series of unique and exclusive features, users will be able to unlock the full potential of the AM5 platform with the latest DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 connectivity".
The new X670E and X670 motherboard lineup is divided into five distinct series and integrates features capable of satisfying any type of user. The ROG Crosshair series returns to deliver performance and style without compromise for those who want to push boundaries and build true enthusiast systems. The ROG Strix boards guarantee quality and gaming functionality across a wide range of designs, while the TUF Gaming range packs every essential feature into a more understated, yet robust and ready-for-every-challenge design. ProArt X670E-Creator WiFi serves the creative community with its professional aesthetic, exceptional connectivity, and outstanding performance. Finally, ASUS has expanded the Prime motherboard range, more focused on value, offering options that provide sustainable access to the X670E and X670 series for all PC DIY enthusiasts.
Raised to the fifth power
The distinctive features of AMD’s CPU and chipset have allowed ASUS to make the X670 a truly next-gen platform. Built using an advanced 5-nanometre process, AMD Ryzen™ 7000 series processors fit into the newest AM5 socket. As an LGA-style socket, the pins are on the motherboard, not on the CPU, making accidental bending or pin damage less likely. AM5 supports up to 170W of thermal design power (TDP), enabling exceptional performance for high-core-count CPUs under heavy workloads.
But it’s not just the CPU socket that benefits from a new-generation update. Motherboards X670E and X670 support the latest RAM DDR5, which transmits data at 50% faster than the DDR4 memory of the previous generation. DDR5 modules offer a completely new level of performance, and ASUS motherboards provide a range of hardware and firmware optimisations that allow users to push overclocking with supported kits to their absolute limit.
Motherboards X670E and X670 also feature PCIe 5.0 connectivity. Thanks to double the link speeds compared to PCIe 4.0, the new standard provides bandwidth to enhance the ASUS X670E and X670 motherboards with a comprehensive selection of high-speed ports. Models equipped with the latest USB4® ports are available, while USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 ports are abundant across the entire range.
The X670E and X670 motherboards differ in their implementation of PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0. The “E” in the X670E motherboards stands for “Extreme” and ensures users have a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot and at least one PCIe 5.0 M.2 socket. But ASUS isn’t content with that: if high-speed or ultra-high-speed storage is the goal, users will find plenty of premium solutions in the offerings. Most ROG Strix X670E motherboards feature at least two integrated PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots, while the flagship ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme offers a total of four PCIe 5.0 slots — both onboard and on additional cards bundled with the motherboard. Since high-end and high-capacity M.2 SSDs can generate more heat, ASUS has also enhanced cooling for the X670E and X670. Many of these M.2 slots include a dual-sided M.2 heatsink to promote thermal exchange and heat dissipation.
PC assembly without problems
Decades have passed since assembling a PC required deep technical knowledge, and ASUS continues to tirelessly make DIY easier with every generation of motherboards. The exclusive innovations ASUS Q-Design in the X670E and X670 series simplify and optimise the PC build and upgrade process.
Current high-end graphics cards often feature generous and robust rear heat sinks. This combination is ideal for performance, but can obstruct access to the PCIe slot release mechanism. The ASUS PCIe Slot Q-Release button allows users to release the graphics card from the slot with a simple press. Users will find this convenient feature on all ROG Crosshair X670E motherboards, as well as on the ProArt X670E-Creator WiFI, and most ROG Strix models — even the Prime X670E-Pro.
In the same way, traditional DIMM slot designs require users to secure both sides of the memory bank, which is not always easy — especially for those with larger fingers — to unlock the mounting system near the graphics card. That’s why ASUS has also implemented its Q-DIMM locking design on one side on all X670E motherboards. With this option, users no longer need to worry about a mounting point too close to their graphics card: a single locking point on the easier-to-access side of the DIMM slot is all that’s needed to keep the memory bank firmly in place. Installing RAM and updating over time are now much simpler.
ASUS has also simplified the installation process for an M.2 drive. The exclusive M.2 Q-Latch means users will never again need to handle tiny screws, easily lost, to secure an M.2 disk; they can now simply tighten or loosen an M.2 drive with their fingertips.
Next-generation cooling
Many builders opt for case fans with higher RPMs capable of moving large volumes of air. These fans are a workaround to keep high-performance components cool under load, but can produce a considered excessive noise when users perform lighter tasks, such as web browsing or email sending. To provide a simpler solution while simultaneously ensuring effective airflow under load and completely silent operation during less demanding activities, ASUS is introducing today AI Cooling II for the entire range of X670E and X670 motherboards.
If enabled via the FanXpert interface in the Armoury Crate app, the new feature relies on a machine learning algorithm to collect system data during a brief stress test. From that point on, AI Cooling II monitors the CPU and uses the stress test data to calculate the lowest possible fan speed required to effectively cool the system, ensuring the quietest possible operation. This fan control system can reduce system fan noise by up to 5.7 dB under sustained loads. Thanks to this self-adapting solution, users will always have full cooling power when needed and a decidedly quieter operation when desired. ASUS has also taken the opportunity to update the FanXpert interface with the full set of fan calibration and control options. Temperature input mapping and fan response mapping are both available in the Windows environment via the convenient Armory Crate app.
Powerful tools for advanced users
The first thing many hardware enthusiasts will do with their new AMD Ryzen™ 7000 series processors and X670E motherboard is test the extra performance achievable through overclocking. In workloads with high thread counts, significant gains are obtained via manual overclocking across all cores. However, for applications with fewer threads — such as games — the integrated Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) from AMD is often the best choice. This technology maximises performance by automatically analysing a range of factors, such as CPU temperature, active tasks, and energy consumption, to intelligently increase clock speed.
End users shouldn’t have to choose between PBO and manual “all-core” overclocking, however. That’s why ASUS has developed the Dynamic OC Switcher. This feature debuted on the legendary and latest motherboard ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero and now ASUS has integrated the micro-controller onto all its X670E motherboards. This feature automatically switches between modes to ensure optimal performance based on current activity. After configuring a manual overclock for heavier tasks, users can set a threshold to activate the Dynamic OC Switcher, based on amperage and temperature. From that point, the system will run with PBO as default, but will dynamically switch to a manual overclock for exceptional multithreaded performance, precisely when needed.
Users can also make use of the new Ryzen Core Flex feature to break every limit through fine-tuned control of clock parameters, power delivery, and thermal settings. In its simplest mode, users can maximise base clock under lighter loads and set predefined steps to gradually reduce core frequencies as temperature or power increases. This system is extremely adaptable and supports multiple configurations to appropriately set power, current, and temperature levels independently, allowing users to tailor CPU performance to their liking.
The ASUS X670E lineup also announces the return of the ROG True Voltician. This kit, including an oscilloscope, comes bundled with the ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme and ROG Crosshair X670E Gene, simplifying the work of enthusiasts who need detailed analysis of the motherboard’s power circuits to achieve maximum performance from their hardware. Once connected to the system, the oscilloscope intuitively displays real-time voltage information on a separate device. Gathering the data needed for professional-level overclocking has never been this easy.

The I/O panel is pre-mounted for easier installation and a more organised layout around the rear ports. A single heatsink cools the PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot and chipset simultaneously, while VRM temperatures are kept low thanks to a large rear heatsink that uses a thermal pad to transfer heat away from critical components, such as decoupling capacitors. The space-saving ROG FPS-II board provides easy access to the front panel connectors, two SATA ports, essential connectors for clearing CMOS and enabling CPU overclocking, plus a switch for PCIe mode to support legacy expansion cards.
But what truly distinguishes the ROG Strix X670E-I from the competition is undoubtedly the brand new external control interface ROG Strix Hive. ROG Strix Hive is the most effective solution to the common challenges PC builders face when aiming to build a compact yet complete Mini-ITX system, and it takes another step forward in terms of practicality, making the motherboard’s advanced gaming features… within reach!
The Mini-ITX form factor doesn’t even offer much space for integrating a high-end audio solution, so ASUS has literally thought outside the box, offering an original and innovative solution. The Hive hosts high-quality audio hardware, integrating a codec ALC4050 paired with a Quad DAC ESS ES9260. A truly crystalline sound can thus be delivered via audio jack or optical S/PDIF output, while the volume knob allows for precise sound control.
The premium audio isn’t the only standout feature of the ROG Strix Hive: the new ROG Strix X670E-I add-on also includes a convenient USB Gen 2 Type-C® port that simplifies connecting peripherals and external storage devices. It also features the intuitive ASUS Q-LED array, enabling users to quickly view and diagnose build issues. A PBO button for EZ mode allows users to activate an optimized PBO profile directly from the operating system in real time, without accessing the BIOS. Users will also find physical FlexKey and BIOS Flashback buttons. Building, updating, and troubleshooting a Mini-ITX PC has never been this easy.
