- No pcie lane sharing - Clean look if you don't like RGB

- Unique PCIe switching topology for NVMe that trades half the GPU bandwidth for two additional nvme gen 5 slots. (this could be a con in some situations) - Competitively priced.

Easy to work with

Exactly what I needed, nothing more. Two NVME direct to CPU slots. Diagnostic LED that shows CPU temp when not needed for diagnostics. Screwless mounts. Everything CLEARLY labeled. GPU lock button. Works well with white build. WIFI 7. BIOS is the easiest to understand of the 7 personal/gaming pc's I've built. Downloading and installing drivers was very straightforward.

Lots of high bandwidth USB ports, 3 PCIE slots (if you need them) and good UEFI updates as the AGESA gets updated.

High quality Great Value

The ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Dark Hero is phenomenal. I want to start by mentioning the attention to detail and the build qualityit's on another level. The board feels very solid, strong, and heavy. The main reason I decided to go with this board is that it allows me to run two Gen 5 SSDs at full speed without losing GPU performance, keeping the graphics card running at x16. I do lose the use of the 40Gb USB-C ports, but honestly I dont use them anyway. Working on the board was super easy thanks to all the EZ-Latch mechanisms, which made installing components quick and hassle-free.

This motherboard is affordable and works very well for the price. The performance is stable, and its easy to get a basic setup running without issues.

-Great small motherboard -Good amount of sata ports

Improved network speed and wifi. Better slot placement than the PRO 650m A board. The pci slot for expansion cards is full length so I can use a 10G network card and it has an extra PCI-E 8 pin connector for power for PCIE 5 SSD.

Works as advertised

Very good power delivery and lots of features for the price range

New feature to flash BIOS with no memory was a life saver.

Great product and price. Delivered on time and in excellent condition.

It can fit a lot of components and when you think you need more; its there!


Insanely beautiful.

- Sturdy, feels tough, well built - No BIOS update needed for latest 9000 AMD series processors. - Easy to apply CPU under-volt with performance presets in BIOS. - Built-in IO Shield - Wifi Antenna holes - 1 USB-C port and 1 header for future upgrades

Clean look and easy BIOS Keeps my 265k boosted as high as other more expensive boards

A great choice that will not break your bank, this board has the must haves of 4 RAM Slots, and 2 M.2 Slots for a gaming PC build with the added bonus of next gen Integrated WiFi and Bluetooth that perform extremely well with the external antenna. The built-in IO faceplate is a very nice touch over the traditional snap-in, as well as the easy latch for the M.2 slots which are shielded by gorgeous thermal plates. A Sensor panel can also be attached to the motherboard for the enthusiasts and it's got your ARGB needs covered.
