The ASUS TUF GAMING X870-PLUS WIFI stands ready for high-stakes performance, built on the X870 chipset to power AMD Ryzen™ 7000 to 9000 series CPUs. With densely packed heatsinks and a hard-edged, martial aesthetic, the X870-PLUS WIFI’s design is pure industrial flair, accentuated by bold orange touches that underscore its strength. Engineered with military-grade components, enhanced power circuitry for overclocking, and a robust cooling system, this motherboard is relentless, staying stable under pressure for intense gaming and advanced AI tasks alike.
Stable power is crucial for maximising the performance of AMD processors. It features 16(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated for up to 80A each. This configuration ensures optimal power delivery, efficiency, stability and performance for both current and future AMD processors.
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and provides optimised profiles for enhanced performance. For those looking to surpass stock DDR5 speeds, the PRIME X870-P offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support and a wide array of UEFI settings for further performance tweaks.
This motherboard also features two PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots to enjoy the fastest data transfers of up to 128 Gbps*, and all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest available speeds.
The TUF GAMING PLUS WiFi introduces EZ PC DIY features that streamline the building process for convenience and speed. A physical lever unlocks the first PCIe slot’s security latch with a single tap, simplifying the removal of graphics cards or other devices during upgrades. The ASUS Q-Latch offers tool-free M.2 SSD installation, using a simple locking mechanism for easy drive attachment and removal. Additionally, the Q-LED Core display provides color-coded lights during the Power-On Self-Test (POST), assisting with quick troubleshooting of potential issues.
