ASUS RoG Crosshair VI Extreme X370 Motherboard Review

ASUS RoG Crosshair VI Extreme X370

When it comes to high-end motherboards, ASUS is one of the best in the business. Their Crosshair Extreme hardware has long been a fan favourite, and I’m sure many were waiting for the VI Extreme to release before making the leap to Ryzen. Now that the board is here, it comes packed full of high-end features that are sure to excite the enthusiast gaming system builder.

Of course, a high-end feature packed motherboard doesn’t come cheap. Expensive doesn’t always mean bad value for money though, and with so many features on offer, the extra investment could easily be justified for the latest ASUS motherboard. Equipped with Aura Sync RGB lighting for added customisation, it’s sure to look stunning. You’ll get high-end features like high speed DDR4 support, dual M.2 storage, USB 3.1 GEn 2, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, SupremeFX audio, and much more.
