Asus ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero AMD ATX Gaming Motherboard
The Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero comes equipped with an optimized power-design layout and all the cooling headers you need to handle the prodigious power of the latest AMD Ryzen processors without performance-zapping thermal throttling.​ It supports AMD AM4 socket ready for 2nd, and 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen processors and up to two M.2 drives, USB 3.2 Gen2, and AMD StoreMI to maximize connectivity and speed. It features a comprehensive thermal design. It comes with an active chipset heatsink, M.2 aluminum heatsink, and ROG Cooling Zone. Heatsinks are extremely important for motherboards, as they absorb heat from critical areas to ensure components do not stagger due to overheating. PCle 4.0 provides twice the bandwidth for data flowing through the chipset, which creates more heat than the previous generation. The AMD X570 chipset delivers outstanding overclocking capabilities for the latest AMD AM4 socket for 3rd and 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen /2nd and 1st Gen AMD Ryzen with Radeon Vega Graphics Processors. It is optimized for multiple GPU configurations, including NVIDIA SLI and AMD CrossFireX. It also supports x16 PCI Express 4.0/3.0 lanes and provides 10Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports and 6 Gb/s SATA ports for faster data retrieval.​
Optimal Performance
The Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero features robust power delivery. It has a designed power solution with 14+2 IR3555 PowIRstages, ProCool II power connectors, microfine alloy chokes, and 10K Japanese-made black metallic capacitors. The monstrous compute power of multi-core processors necessitates a power circuit that rapidly responds to massive current swings. Featuring an array of 16 strategically paired power stages, the Hero’s VRM is geared for any workload and all operating conditions. Optimem III allows memory kits to run at lower latencies, reduced voltages, and operate at higher frequencies. ROG Crosshair VIII Hero features the most comprehensive cooling options ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.
High-performance networking
Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero offers advanced connectivity to ensure seamless gaming experiences. It comes with onboard 2.5 Gbps Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, both with ASUS LANGuard protection, and support for GameFirst V software. Automated system-wide tuning with 5-Way Optimization, providing overclocking and cooling profiles that are tailor-made for your rig.
Unthrottled Transfer Speed
Dual PCIe 4.0 M.2 Slot support up to 22110 and provide NVMe SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data-transfer speeds on the 3rd Generation AMD Ryzen platform. It comes with AMD StoreMI technology. It combines SSD performance with the affordability and capacity of an HDD by automatically moving frequently accessed data to dedicated SSD storage.​
