Unfortunately, like most of the X570 motherboards launching today, we do not have the prices to hand for the ASUS TUF Gaming X570 Plus WiFi. We’ll update them as soon as we can though. However, you can check for prices in the UK here and in the US here. This isn’t a STRIX or an overly high-end board though, so we expect it to be one of the most price competitive boards we’ve reviewed this week.
While the ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus (WiFi) may not be a flagship titan of a motherboard, it’s certainly not lacking in features and performance. As part of the TUF Alliance, it’s also guaranteed to be fully compatible with other TUF hardware such as coolers, memory, etc. Not only that, but the TUF aesthetic is uniform too, so it’ll all match up visually, which is something I really appreciate.
ASUS has added just enough extra features to give this a premium vibe, without adding more that you don’t need and bumping up the price even further. Of course, being X570 and PCIe 4.0 equipped, it features a more robust PCB than we’re used to seeing. Plus, they’ve got a pretty competent VRM and cooling setup, including the expected active cooling on the new X570 chipset.
The ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus (WiFi) was full of surprises. Right off the bat, it scored an impressive 54047 in 3DMark, our 6th fastest score, but enough to match that of the AORUS XTREME Z390 and not far off of the STRIX-E Gaming score of 24150 points. Then it scored a whopping 5860 in Unigine, which is literally the fastest score we’ve ever had by quite a margin. It was even one of the best motherboards for gaming on the X570 chipset, which is impressive indeed. It seems you don’t always need the top end motherboard to get top end performance.
Again, ASUS hasn’t gone crazy with this one, but it still ticks a lot of boxes. There’s plenty of ARGB headers and some LEDs built into the side of the motherboard. You get plenty of USB 3.2 Gen 1 and Gen 2 connections, dual M.2 mounts with Gen4 support, and two full-size PCIe 4.0 lanes. Plus, the audio features the superb S1200A chipset with DTS Custom, Japanese capacitors and more.
I think this one is a bit of a sweet spot for most system builders. It has a great design and decent build quality overall. As part of the TUF alliance, it’s got great compatibility, and should be priced fairly reasonably too. For an entry to gaming on X570, it’s a great place to get started.
