ASUS Prime X670E-Pro WiFi Motherboard Review

Peter Donnell / 1 year ago

We’re big fans of ASUS hardware here at eTeknix, as it’s often some of the best enthusiast hardware on the market! While the flagship RoG motherboards are very desirable, they straight-up murder your wallet with their high prices. So what about getting most of those thrills at a more acceptable price? That sounds like a great idea! At around £370, the ASUS Prime X670E-Pro WiFi is not a cheap motherboard, but in terms of how many features you get for your investment, it’s packing some serious heat.

This is a great-looking motherboard, which is certainly a benefit, but it’s the hardware I’m really interested in. You get a competent 14+2 power stage design, large heatsinks, and their combination of ally chokes and durable capacitors for improved overclocking and stability. You’ll find PCIe 5.0, USB 3.2 Gen2x2, Type-C, USB4, the latest WiFi and LAN standards, and a whole host of features to enhance everything from cooling to audio. Really, there’s not a lot this board does that the significantly more expensive RoG boards can do, VRM and cooling may not be as significant, but honestly, it hardly looks like it’s lacking here.
