ASUS Rog STRIX X570-E

Today we’ve got ten or more new X570 motherboards going live, wow, what a crazy week! Of course, that’s not all, as today also marks the launch of both the new Radeon graphics cards and a new range of 3rd Gen Ryzen processors! We’ve already seen the STRIX X570 Crosshair VIII Hero motherboard, and the TUF Gaming X570 Plus, but now it’s time for the ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming!

The STRIX series has always been a big hit with gamers around the world. Blending high-end overclocking, amazing connectivity and stunning aesthetics into one neat package. Sure, they’re often a bit more expensive, but you do get a lot for you money.

Equipped with a 12+4 Phase VRM, alloy chokes, high-quality capacitors, and featuring massive heatsinks with a joining 8mm heat pipe. There’s also a massive heatsink with active fan on the chipset that blends into being the M.2 heatsink too. This motherboard takes cooling performance pretty seriously, which should keep the enthusiasts pretty happy.

All that high-end cooling is there for high-end hardware though. You’ll find the latest PCIe 4.0 with three full-size slots, two of them armoured. There’s also a pair of M.2 mounts ready for the new Gen4 M.2 NVMe SSDs. Super fast storage is backed up with fast connectivity too; 2.5 Gbps LAN, Gigabit LAN, and WiFi 6 802.11 AX will keep you well catered for. Audio comes from the flagship SupremeFX S1220A with DTS Sound Unbound. Throw in Aura Sync RGB, USB Type-C, automatic overclocking, and so much more for good measure.

CPU Support

Please keep in mind that Ryzen X570 motherboards only support Ryzen 2nd Gen and 3rd Gen CPUs. Despite being AM4 sockets, they do not currently work with Ryzen 1st Gen processors. Furthermore, for those wanting to use the full PCIe 4.0 functionality, you’ll also need to use the latest 3rd Gen CPUs.
