Just a heads up for anyone who buys this board, I had to update the BIOS before I could run D.O.C.P stable, even with my meagre 5600M/T kit. Just make sure you do that before overclocking your RAM - other than that I've had a completely stable experience.
I suppose the bios is far from what you'd call "mature" right now. I'd give it a couple of months and try the newer version(s).
How's the board so far, this is the one I'm eyeballing I wish they had this in white
ddr5 basically didnt work on z690, 4 sticks was a huge no and only bootable at 4800, and even 2 was sketchy, memory qvl were empty and often the actual supported speeds under the kit xmp, trash i hated it al 2022 and ordered a 7950x x670 for which memory qvls have 10x the kits and at their actual speed, maybe now i can use my corsair 6200 at 6200, qvl even says you can have 4x 6200 !
sitll not worth the price.... 900+ cad dollar mobo for a overhyped mobo maker naw
True, same experience ...
FYI, The title of the video and the board that Wendell shows in person is the "Crosshair X670E Hero" but the board shown as an image a few times is the "Crosshair X670E Extreme". The Hero is ATX and the Extreme is EATX and costs more.
came here to say this 👍
That physical switch for PCIe 3.0 is a life saver for using older riser cables.
If you have a slot that supports PCIe 4.0/5.0, a card that also supports PCIe 4.0/5.0, but a riser that supports PCIe 3.0, the handshake will fail and the card won't be detected. This was a huge problem in the SFF community trying to pair Ryzen 5000 with RX 6000 or RTX 3000, since PCIe 4.0 risers were initially pretty rare.
All boards have a bios setting for that, so plug the card in the slot, boot to bios, change the setting, power off and install the riser
@@marcogenovesi8570 In cases like the Lian Li A4H2O, you can't realistically install a card normally. This meant people with sandwich layouts like that had to fully disassemble and reassemble their PC after every BIOS update.
@@BWTHeuSeD Are bios updates so important? I usually update when building and then not touch it again unless there are issues. Anyway for troubleshooting purposes on boards without graphics I have an old nvidia 710, so in that case I would only have to swap the GPU with the sad little 710 to do a bios update.
Since the card itself is not PCie 4.0 it would work fine on a non-4.0-capable riser
@@marcogenovesi8570 While it's not common, it's still a very frustrating issue that's resolved by this motherboard.
@@BWTHeuSeD afaik the switch is used only for the last x1 slot, not for the others
The second PCIe slot only has PCIe 5.0 x4 if the second PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot (that is connected to the CPU) is populated. The primary PCIe slot goes down to x8, while the second PCIe slot and the second both get PCIe 5.0 x4.
I am talking x16 mechanical, haven't even touched on electrical
remember that you wont get 5.0 bandwith..the big lie...you get x4 or x8 whatever pcie your card is ! so 4.0 x8 on a 3090 an x8 3.0 if ypur gpu is older, source me and 3dmark pcie bandwith benchmark, i tested when i realized the cpu linked m.2 on z690 reduced my scores, btw the rest of the bandwith is lost its why i hate z690 so much its a 1 pcie slot plateforme basically, i hope x670 is better, x570 had way smarter bandwith splitting
@@fredEVOIX You seem to be confused between PCIe versions and the number of PCIe lanes you have for a slot or device.
If you eventually have a PCIe 5.0 device (there aren't really any available for consumer devices yet) plugged into a PCIe 5.0 capable slot you will get PCIe 5.0 bandwidth for however many lanes the device and slot will both support.
Plugging an RTX 3090 (that supports PCIe Gen 4.0) into a PCIe Gen 5.0 slot is not going to magically make it run at PCIe 5.0 bandwidth.
That sucks, you'd hope it would do 8x and 8x if the third was empty, so dual GPU's both get 8x lanes
@@isbestlizard If you don't populate the 2nd M.2 slot, but you do populate both PCIe slots, then both PCIe slots will have eight PCIe lanes. There are only 16 lanes to share between those three slots.
BIOS Flashback being default makes me feel warm inside. Love it!
Having “Dip Swithces” for PCI-E levels for 2/3/4 …. reminds me of the good old days of FSB Dip Switches determining 33/66/100/133 FSB on older AMD and Cyrix CPUs 👍🥰
I love that every CPU has a basic GPU! I can run a desktop on the CPU and pass through my GPU to vms so easy!!!
Oh damn I remember considering this use case years ago but didn't have onboard-graphics at the time. Thanks for the reminder.
very few motherboards have the video ports...rhe one i want doesnt
You sure they aren't just in the usbc ports?
@@fredEVOIX if your mobo has a usb-c on the rear IO it almost definitely supports DisplayPort over USBC
I don't understand how such an expensive Motherboard comes with a 2.5 Gbit lan port and not 10 Gbit.
Just ordered mine earlier today. I got $70 off on it which pushed me over the edge to getting it. Expensive? Yes. But I'm fine with it. The USB 4 will be nice to have
Clear CMOS switch is really useful. You can reset the bios after a bad OC and still keep the OC Profile saved
This definitely helped me with my asus dark hero mb after the auto oc put the system into a boot loop.
Yeah have it even on my old X370 Crosshair VI Hero
Where can I find it sir
I have also dark hero and my pc is not turning on anymore after a bad settings
I only bought this board because the ASUS board I had picked out was backordered for like 2 months. This is way overkill for what I will use it for, but I hope it serves as a good platform for future upgrades in my new system.
Same. I didn’t want to wait…
@@fullspeedfordbroncois it staibal aftet 1 year used?
I went for the tuf gaming x670E
Can't wait to spend $999 on a motherboard, AM5 prices are messed up.
There's a $2K board already.
@@PrimalRampageGaming That's just insane
I’m really interring the Asus ProArt X670, it has so much connectivity!
You're awesome, man. Hang in there!
The only reason I prefer Wendel to other motherboards reviewers it's for the IOMMU, THANK YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH
It really is something the vendors ought to list in their Specs tables, or at least in the manual.
Before you add anything to the board bench test by putting just the 24 connector and then add the bios USB turn the power on and wait to see if the blue light starts blinking. That is what I had to do to get the board to recognize the bios update. I wish I would have done this it is an easy thing to do. Now I have to see if there are more issues to come. onward and up more testing each added component.
Every thing is okay with you after 2 mon using this mobo?
Micro Center has a ASUS barebones system with this board, case, 360mm AIO, and 1000-watt power supply for 740 bucks now 1500 normal price. INSANE deal.
If you use the two M.2 slots below the pice slots it may not alter the first pcie slot. Im using the second and getting x8 on a water cooled rtx4090. I also use one of the M.2 slots above the pcie slots so that might of been the offending slot that dropped the pcie 2nd slot to x8. Either way x8 pcie4 is adequate bandwidth.
I hate to say it. But I think AMD screwed up not adding another 8 or 16 lanes on this generation.
The mass amount of lanes on an Epyc or Ripper becomes overkill on most setups where this undershoots it enough to want that tier and shouldn't. I understood on the last run up. Not this time.
The next iteration needs just a small uplift in performance, a small uplift on efficiency, and a main focus on more lanes with tighter memory.
Unfortunately I don't think the pinout of the AM5 accommodates for this. I could be wrong though.
AMD if listening. AM6 needs 44-50 lanes and nothing less.
Love the chip and design. Still disappointed. Unless... You could pull off that red wonder and come up with a dual socket setup giving an in-between before TR.
Why can't they have more lanes? Because not everyone uses it. AM5 is already expensive as it is and adding more lanes will only make that price more expensive. Most people are already content with an x16 GPU and some x4 M.2 NVME storage solutions. I'm not sure what people would need the extra lanes for. If you want more storage just get an M.2 with more storage. If you want another GPU installed, x8 has nearly identical performance to x16. And plus, SLI is dead in 2023.
700$ motherboard... no thanks!
fucking exactly will cost more than the CPU why are AM5 motherboards so expensive!
Yeah I got one and while its a very nice MB... 700 seems a little steep!
Straight up. You can get a 3080 for that price.
Thanks for pointing that out and stopping me from wasting my time!
The z690 ones shud get down to $400 anytime soon
Literally the same features as this
Questions.
1. Are you saying it's best to get DDR5 memory Expo memory cards to eliminate startup issues?
2. Is 32 gb memory a good standard or is 64 gb memory better? In addition to gaming, I do a lot of photo editing using Lightroom, photoshop, Topaz and other photo editing software.
3. I plan to run 1x 3080Ti and a 2Tb M2. How will this affect those PCIe lanes. Which M2 slot is best to use? Need clarification on this. Thanks...
There r 24 pcie 5.0 lanes. 16 for GPU & 8 for 2 gen5 m.2. The 16 lanes can b divided among primary & secondary x16 slots. Each x16 slot will then have 8 gen 5 lanes. This is my understanding.
Thank you, Wendell!!! 🇺🇸 😎👍☕
You just left out the tiny small detail that it fries the CPU.
How? Not if you use the AMD Ryzen™ 9 7950X3D 16-Core
As good as X670 and Zen 4 is the price hike is mind bending.
I told a friend of mine to wait for Zen4 and he wanted an Asus Strix X670E gaming wifi (because he likes the X570E board I have. We are in Australia and the X570E Gaming Wifi II is selling for $449AU (I paid $479 last year). The Price of the X670E Gaming Wifi ? $949AU. I nearly fell off my chair and that is without DDR5 memory. How did they work that pricing out? I think both AMD and Intel are in for a lean new year (at least at Aussie prices)
Tell him to get a high end B550 motherboard and a 5800X3D. For video games zen 4 and Intel 13th gen are barely beating the 5800X3D, but the X3D is cheaper, B550 motherboards are cheaper, and you can get 64GB of DDR4-3600 (zen 3 sweet spot) for the same price as 32GB of DDR5-6000 (zen 4 sweet spot). The extra money he can put into a kilowatt PSU and one of the 4000-series GPUs, or he can get a used 3080Ti from an ex-miner and put the extra money in his pocket.
The 5800X3D is an incredible gaming processor and will probably last the rest of this decade. The important thing for gaming is the graphics card, and those are hust barely saturating PCIe3x16. PCIe5 is enormous overkill and will be for many years.
I don't think it has to do with the platform at all. These are all in line with Intel z690 motherboard pricing. As more models come out (of CPUs too), your bundle pricing will come down. The B series motherboards will also be a lot cheaper. The whole industry continues raising prices, probably partly to do with the chip shortages, lockdowns, etc.
What does the consumer market need pcie5 for? You can run gpu on pcie4.0 in x8 and you will be fine. We barely started converting from 3.0 m2 to pcie 4.0 m2. By the time pcie 5.0 devices will be humanely priced we gonna have new socket and new motherboards.
@@sznikers GPUs don't benefit from PCIe5 yet, but in a year or two SSDs will. Drives like the SN850 are already saturating their PCIe4x4 bus, so further advancement in throughput will require PCIe5 (and the heat these drives put out will also more or less force you to use some sort of heat sink to keep that throughput up for longer than a few seconds).
That said, PCIe4 SSDs already have plenty of throughput for just about any use today, the improvement that would be most noticable to the user is lower latencies. Optane is the standard for low latency drives, and that's still on PCIe3, so PCIe5 drives are still a dubious proposition. PCIe4 won't be obsolete just yet, Samsung in particular are putting a lot of effort into low-latency drives.
So no, don't spend extra for PCIe5 today. Even if you think you might upgrade to a PCIe5 SSD in a few years it probably isn't worth it, it'll be cheaper to get a B660 board today and then a replacement B800-whatever board in the future when PCIe5 is baseline feature, than to get an X670 board today.
If you're building a new computer for gaming today, your best option regardless of budget is the 5800X3D. For gaming zen 4 is only a very marginal improvement over it, but even a low-end zen 4 system is much more expensive than a 5800X3D system, the saved money can go towards a better GPU instead.
@@sznikers Personally, I'd rather not have to replace my motherboard, CPU, and RAM, so I'm buying a futureproof board for the next 5-8 years. I expect to use PCIe 5 GPUs in it during that time
Just did a quick look up of the cost 7700x, plus this mobo, plus pcie5 psu, ram, 4090, came up to €4.5k here in eu, before case, cooling, monitor keyboard and mouse, MSI godlike priced at €1.6k 😮 the pricing got ridiculous…
the msi godlike is not worth the money, it's a garbage board for the price/feature set
>$700 board
>no bifurcation
What a fucking joke
We need a review update. BIOS updates have occurred and you can now run 64GB at 6000 easily 👍🏻
Even 8 Lanes for the GPU will be enough if the GPU is 5.0 because its equal to 16 Lanes 4.0 and even the highest End GPUs of the upcoming Gen are not enough to saturate 16 Lanes 4.0 / 8 Lanes 5.0 . It took 6-7 GPU Gens to saturate 16 Lanes 3.0 , the difference between current Gen GPUs on 16 Lanes 3.0 and 16 Lanes 4.0 is only noticeable on highest end GPUs = 3090 / Ti and 6900XT what means 16 Lanes 4.0 / 8 Lanes 5.0 will be enough for the next 3-4 GPU Gens , way enough for AM5 Lifetime even if AM5 last 2 Years longer till 2027 . Its a kind of futureproof if you have 2 slots 5.0 with 8 Lanes each
Unfortunately though Nvidia RTX 4000 series are only PCI-E 4.0 :/
@@jasonroche3690
I guess AMDs RX7000 will have 5.0 , Zen4 is 5.0 and X670E is 5.0 and B650E is 5.0 as well . I would be suprised if they dont use 5.0 for the GPUs as well , its backward compatibel , you can put an 5.0 GPU in a 4.0 slot or a 3.0 Slot , even 2.0 should work , it will limit the GPU , but it should work
Yeah I bet they will too, its a shame Nvidia didn't go 5.0 also. Like you say, 8 lanes of 5.0 would be fine but 8 lanes of 4.0 might bottleneck a little in some scenerios. Still not that big a deal though.
Please tell me, who knows: if this motherboard has only 4 PCIe 3.0 lines for two USB4s, that means 32 Gbit. USB 4 should support 40 Gbps. There are two of them. It turns out that when connected to one USB4 there will be a maximum of 32 Gbit, and when connected to two USB4, each will have only 16 Gbit. So why are they needed here in the amount of two and called usb4? Thanks to everyone who can answer
Be aware that the second M.2 Slot will reduce your PEG slot to 8x. So I wonder where the 28 Lanes have gone on this board? Normally this board should support two M.2 from the CPU next to a full PEG slot wit 16 Lanes!
What a fail, ASUS!
Awesome, nice work.
Little confused. We taking the Crosshair or the Extreme? Showing pictures of both.
THANK YOU! He's an idiot.
8:00 meh & LoL to 60 watt for the 20gb connection on power over the copper USB C wire....meh talk to us when its 100 watt. Honestly need more lanes made available on a consumer level ( for example a new standard ATX by 9 slot motherboard etc..) BUT Wendel would not think of this ( obviously ) because of all his Threadripper and EPYC systems sprawled all other the place LoL. Peace.
I think the memory training time duration is a good thing. It's like electric cars on long journeys. It forces the person to take a break, which is important for long-distance driving and when (re)building computer, means time to make a fresh cuppa before transitioning from hardware to software. 🙂
Asus Don't do the Extreme version of this motherboard anymore. I looked it up and it states it on their site.
Ah yes, a 133% price jump from the last generation for the same quality board. Very cool.
How is the same quality board, when there's now PCIe 5.0 and DDR 5, both of which are much more expensive to do, along with a sizeable uplift in PPT and a move to LGA from PGA?
I can understand being disgruntled that only high end boards are released initially and even SOME of the price increase, but the boards a definitely more expensive to produce than last gen (even excluding global supply shortages and inflation).
@@ChrispyNut Have you actually seen the price of PCBs to really make that call?
It bothers me quite abit how people are so quick to excuse away price increases or just anything a motherboard vendor does without any real evidence

Are you aware that the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero and ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme are different boards. You seems to be talking about the former but keep showing pictures of the latter?
He's an idiot, confusing everyone.
So we are down to 2 PCIE x16 slots? Next generation, we'll be down to one? Guess I'll sit that out for the 7000series Threadripper.
I though the same about the PCIe slots. Fine for a pure gaming computer but i would like to add stuff to the system if i needed it like fx. a video caption card or so.
They weren’t really X16, and SLI and Crossfire are dead.
Still really stupid they removed them tho
@@Yock1980 Exactly. My network is 10GBE. I edit video.

For context my testing was all done on b550 boards 6-9 months ago. But it was bad. Real bad.
7:40 Actually, why don't PSUs have a USB terminal? Cases could have "it can charge your phone" as a feature, even have a Qi charger in the top or something.
700... For a hero.... How 'bout fucking no.
Are you able to test if thunderbolt 4 works on this motherboard? As far as I can tell it's completely unanswered online if the thunderbolt 4 controllers Asus is using for USB4 support in these motherboards is having the thunderbolt 4 portion disabled in the BIOS, or if they just aren't advertising the support.
It is supported, answer was posted by asus employee on the rog forum
Can you review the msi x670e carbon?
Something to think about, I have not found a fix yet. The IGPU on AM5 is running in crossfire with a Radeon 6800xt, that means I can not run Radeon super resolution. hopefully there is a fix for this as that is a pretty big feature to lose. I just have not found a setting in the BIOS to turn off the IGPU if it even exists.
Disable it in device manager?
@@KaziQTR I did, it had no effect.
One problem with Windows own software RAID in the disk manager is that you need to have the disks as dynamic disks and dynamic disks don't support TRIM
I discovered this when the build in RAID on the motherboard only support 4 SATA drives because the 2 extra ports is on a different controller chip.
I tried to do the software RAID with all 6 SATA drives, but found out the lack of TRIM support.
You can't use only SSD's with Storage Spaces either. You need mechanical drives and then use the SSD's as cache drives.
Windows has software RAID?
You can absolutely do SSD only pools with Storage Spaces. I've been doing that with SATA and SAS SSDs for years.
@@SirCrest Didn't work when I tried. I just got an error message.
He was probably not talking about windows, he's a Linux guy.
@@metamon2704 But then you shouldn't say it's better to run software RAID if you loose functionality. Ok if you say run software RAID, on Linux. Not just assume everyone is running Linux already just because YOU run Linux
Guess I'll sell my other kidney.....
Sorry, the bottom fell out of the kidney market because everyone's selling them to afford to live atm.
So the RAM training should only happen once? Maybe my X99-board (old, I know) can learn something from this, it seems to do RAM training every single time the system is switched on...
Will this MOBO play solitaire?
No, need a thread ripper board for that. :P
Hi Wendell 😇👋 what was the AIDA64 memory latency out of curiosity on the memory used?
This a great motherboard.
Stupid question here but I will buy this board and I won't upgrade my GPU (1070) and yeah I know my 7950X will bottleneck it to the ground but I wait for the new GPUs to release and upgrade. The question is, where exactly should I plug my 1070? PCIE4 slot? Aren't PCIE backwards compatible anyway? Won't it work on PCIE5 slot too? Given the fact that 1070 is still PCIE3..
Take it from someone who has gone down the motherboard rabbithole in the past...
These boards are never worth it.
Just get the cheapest possible board that has the functionality you require.
Could you not get 6k on the ram because it was 4 sticks instead of 2? Or has a bios update since corrected that? I'm currently building on this board with gskill ddr5 ram, 2x 32gig kit @6k, hoping I wasn't swindled. Can't test it yet because PSU got held up in customs.
So from what I gather from all the vids I have seen so far, Don't spend a lot of money on these boards and just go with a regular X670 board.. Most people are still building with Gen3 M.2's to this day, I went with a 500gig 980 Gen4 for my top slot just cause I could not because I need gen4, it just seemed wrong not to use it if I could, and a 1T 970 EVO for my bottom M.2 slot. Bottom line in everyday use there's no real difference..
I was expecting him to do the Extreme and not the lesser board.
USB4? Yes? No?
What's with the pictures of the extreme this the hero review
What's the thing with 42 "error" code? I saw your display always converging towards it. Is it just an easter egg stuff? (I'm getting the same thing - didn't yet update the BIOS - not sure whether it has anything to do with that)
I would like to build a Flight Sim PC for DCS using a motherboard that allows an RTX 4090 full bandwidth to the CPU. Would this board allow that as well as an NVME drive? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
X670 is going to have a major PCIe bottleneck due to the fact that the 2nd PCH has to run through the first PCH, basically turning the first PCH into a PCIe hub. For a better design a motherboard maker could in fact use the additional 4 PCIe 5.0 lanes that the CPU has (remember there are 28 lanes on Zen4 as apposed to 24 lanes on Zen, Zen+, Zen2 and Zen3) to connect the 2nd PCH to the CPU direct. This would allow for a much smoother setup, allowing more features to be included. If it was me i would set it up with PCH 1 as a Storage setup. Use all the PCIe lanes associated with that PCH for M.2 and SATA storage. Then using the 2nd PCH i would confiture that for PCIe slots (atleast 1 PCIe x4 slot and 1 x1 slot (yes I like and need PCIe slots) as well as additing additional PCIe add on's like additional USB/Thunderbolt controllers as well as additional NIC's (maybe have a Intel or Aquantia 10G NIC) Doing a setup in this way will reduce bottlenecking between the CPU and the 2 PCH chipsets. Yes it does mean you will lose the PCIe 5.0 x4 link from the CPU but really i'd sacrifice that for better throughput from connected chipsets
Hi! Can I ask you if your X670E Hero motherboard comes with the seal on the box and the motherboard set in an antistatic bag? Mine not (not the seal and not the bag), I'm wondering if this is normal.
Can you use this motherboard with all Gen4 Nvme in the slots without comprising the GPU down from 18 to 6? If not could you recommend a motherboard that you can do this with!
I'm tempted to get one of these. Is there any way to set the RGB in the bios or in Linux or do you need the Windows software?

@@fokjohnpainkiller just found the slot under the masive heat sink... lol
Hey, nice overview! Question: can I fit 2 RTX 3090 there? As far as I understand they'd be using x8 PCIe lanes each. My only fear is the clearance - does it have enough physical space (ASUS ProArt X670E-CREATOR motherboard seems very tight this one looks a bit better)?
Also I'm reading through the manual and trying to figure out whether it is possible to have 2 GPUs (8x mode) and 2 NVMe M.2 SSDs (x4)? That'd use up all 24 PCIe lanes from my CPU.
Placing the SSD in M.2_1 slot shouldn't interfere with the 8x dual GPU setup, but my fear is if I add another SSD will that force the GPUs into the 4x mode?
I am wondering the same thing.
Woot!
This USB4 implementation is pretty disappointing. They already have the 40Gbps port with display output, but then they hard-wire it to the integrated GPU instead of giving you a "display-in" port so you can wire up your actual GPU to it. So this board is not the best choice if you want to connect a dock and then multiple displays to that dock. Too bad. :/
As someone who's been waiting for USB4 to become available and hopefully stop the stupid vendor lock-in that all the manufacturers have been doing with Thunderbolt, I'm sad to see that ASUS stopped short of unlocking its full potential, on this board at least.
I'm running 6400 with 64 gigs on the EXtreme

If you run dual channel it reduces the speed to 3600, run 2x32gb if you need 64gb so you can take advantage of the DDR5 Speed

Any chance you’ve had problems with the Ethernet port? I have a gig up and down but it’s essentially broken been having to use my wifi adapter
ROG Crosshair X670E Hero vs ASRock X670E Taichi. Can you let me know your vote? What do you guys think? (thinking to build after the black friday)
I will NEVER buy a ASRock mobo. HORRIBLE boards!!!
$650 motherboard and only one LAN port??
How long that training process take because on my board it’s been almost 5 times i turn on pc and keep do it
So does this board actually work with Thunderbolt 3/4 devices like, say, a Blackmagic 4K Ultrastudio Mini?
Is this supposed to come in unsealed box and without anti-static bag?
Looking at getting this board just wondering if m.2 installation can have the heatsink on when plates are back in place some heatsinks are smaller I noticed
60 watts over USB? Oh my.
How do I get to use the 60w feature? Is that only the front panel feature and I need an USB-C output?
What is the best ECC ram for this motherboard??
Hi, I have a question. If I install only 1 m2 on the pci ex 5.0 line and a 4090 then on the second x8 line I put a 10gbe x4 card, there are a total of 24 lines supported by the cpu... The question is by installing the 10gbe lan the graphics card will continue to work to x16 or does it become x8?
I kinda miss SATA express or U.2, I just love Intel 2.5" SSDs, 2nd hand even enterprise have still huge amount of life to give and reliability is probably even better than on new m.2 consumer
there are cheap m.2 to U.2 adapters (as it's basically just a dumb connector difference, same PCIe signals)
@@marcogenovesi8570 yeah I know, but you have cabling under GPU nowadays with that wide GPU heatsinks many U.2 connectors will interfere and also on lots of those boards there are heatsinks that cover 2 slots at the same time so unless you use seprate heatsink you cant cover... I remember when almost noone used nvme, asus mostly stuck u.2 on almost every board, nowadays you cant find on any so to speak...
@@bits2646 there are adapters that have a M.2 connector soldered to a U.2 cable directly so there is no bulky U.2 slot under the GPU.
Not sure what the problem is with M.2 heatsinks, you don't need them
@@marcogenovesi8570 Oh I didn't pay attention to those soldered, hopefully they are good, pci-e signaling is pretty quirky when it comes to cables, havent had good luck always when I used them...
You don't need heatsinks for basic use, but on sustained heavy use, some SSDs like samsung 980 get pretty hot, especially if mounted under GPU where most mobos has slots that connect to CPU directly, and performance then start to suffer pretty bad so it's good to have at least some thermal mass to soak that heat. 10+ W is quite a lot to dissipate from that small surface that controller has without anything on...
One question please, is this motherboard compatible with my powercolor rx 6750 xt red devil gpu?
Did you get rid of Ryan yet?
Does this Motherboard support amd multi-gpu support?
the msi ace is the same price and has x8x8x4 or x16x0x4 pcie5 slots to the cpu
rather get more pcie5 slots :z
The Strix version of this board has 3 PCI-E gen 5 m.2 slots.
Can I use my unused Wraith box cooler with this one? I like the beefy socket and back plate!
The bandwidth the cache gets looks tasty! To think I used to have to order and fit Sun memory expansion boards with an insane number of modules on them.
just get a watercooler
The 7000 series are all so power hungry (by default) that a Wraith would not be recommended for any of them, even the 7600X... unless you put things into Eco mode for the CPU and run it at reduced Wattage. A Wraith with a 7950X or 7900X is a bad idea whatever Wattage you want to run at.
You sure can use it. It would be a terrible idea but it will fit.
Apparently, from what I've heard, the wraith box cooler works fine with RYZEN 7000. HUB is doing testing on this currently however, they did leave an early comment on their most recent video that it works well.
Although I'm surely you're kidding, yes, the wraith should be fine. Won't get the best performance, but the chip'll run as fast as it can. Though, as other's have said, best to use eco-mode, to find the sweet-spot for efficiency.
This is the thing these days, chips are "smart" enough to manage themselves when it comes to thermals, they won't cook themselves to death.
This or the Aorus Xtreme, what do you think guys? Both are very close in price here.
asus > gigabyte always
It's concerning that the DDR5-6000 kit did not boot....that is the sweet spot for AM5.
Prob just a bios update needed, these chipsets are still new.
It wouldn't post with Dominator 5200 either for me. I had to drop the mem speed to 3600 for it to post. Anything higher was unstable. I tried the latest BIOS but it made no difference. Tried DOC and DOC II and it wouldn't post. Tried manually setting the power and timing and it wouldn't post. Otherwise, it's great! LOL
@@srcitizen. Next time use an Expo ram
@@TheSjuris I did.
@@srcitizen did you update the bios?
