ASUS unveils new AMD X470 series of motherboards
ASUS has a new offering for the gaming enthusiasts.
ASUS has launched a fresh line of motherboards based on new AMD X470 chipset. The X470 chipset is designed to enhance the performance of the next generation AMD Ryzen 2000 series of processors, codenamed Pinnacle Ridge and yet retains backward compatibility with current Ryzen processors.
The new X470 Series spans six motherboards. The ROG Crosshair VII Hero and its Wi-Fi- equipped twin lead the lineup with a stealthy design. Its Strix X470-F Gaming sibling makes ROG enhancements like easy tuning and customization more affordable, while the Strix X470-I Gaming shrinks everything down to mini-ITX proportions.
The TUF X470-PLUS Gaming features military-grade components and an alliance of industry partners
with a focus on functional integration. The Prime X470-PRO claims to provide an alternative for the content-creation and
everyday-productivity audiences with a new level of user refinement and a design inspired by futuristic
architecture.
AMD's Ryzen revival promises faster performance than the previous generation. With a single click, the 5-Way Optimization utility accounts for both by automatically tuning fans and testing the limits of the CPU. Its integrated intelligence finds the maximum speed the system can sustain without sacrificing stability, and configurable options allow experts to fine-tune the process to suit their needs.
This ASUS SafeSlot treatment helps protect the motherboard investment against physical damage from rough handling and inadvertent bumps traveling to LAN parties. Ryzen CPUs reserve four PCI Express 3.0 lanes for an NVMe SSD, and the X470 chipset adds two more for an additional drive.
Although the double-barreled link has lower peak throughput than its quad-lane counterpart, maximum bandwidth is still over 3X higher than a 6Gbps SATA interface. The X470 Series motherboards all have dual M.2 slots, so users can equip a primary drive for the OS and frequently used games and applications, plus a secondary one to serve as a scratch disk or extra storage for a Steam library.
When it's time to start over, the integrated secure erase tool can wipe both SATA and NVMe drives from right in the UEFI.
USB 3.1 Gen 2 connectivity built into the chipset pushes peak theoretical throughput to 10Gbps for external storage and next-gen devices. The X470 Series motherboards tap into that controller for at least two ports at the rear, and most of the ATX models also include an internal header for chassis with
turbocharged USB ports up front.
Intel Gigabit Ethernet in the ROG and Prime series supplies reliable wired networking for serious gaming and fast file transfers. Onboard wireless is available on the Crosshair VII Hero (Wi-Fi) and Strix X470-I Gaming, adding convenience without giving up too much speed.
Audio enhancements like shielded codecs and premium capacitors are present across the lineup, and ROG adds dedicated amps to boost output for a range of headphones. Since input quality is increasingly important for streaming commentary to followers, coordinating strategy with squadmates, and calling into remote meetings, ASUS engineers upgraded the microphone input on the ROG and Prime boards.
ASUS X470 based motherboards are available for pre-order in most regions starting on April 13, 2018. The ASUS X470 family of motherboards will be available worldwide starting on April 19, 2018.
The ROG Crosshair VII Hero is priced at Rs 21,650, while the Strix X470-F Gaming will be selling for Rs 16,250. The Prime X470-Pro and the TUF X470-Plus Gaming will be available for Rs 14,450 and Rs 12,200 respectively.
