You still get 5 m.2 slots and it also has a slimSAS connector which has 4xPCI-e lanes available to it. So you can use it to connect other peripherals as well. Including enterprise u.2 SSDs.

It looks smart but owning the X670E Hero it seems like an almost pointless upgrade. If the price wasn’t too different I could maybe rationalise it by selling off the current board. But if these turn out to be really expensive I think they are going to struggle to sell them especially given the somewhat disappointing 9000 launch.
I bought this board ahead of time, however, the ROG lighting on the left will be immediatley turned off. Huge turn-off. Just make it a mini addressable display for temp/freq monitoring. Simple.
Two PCIe slots and that's it? Not gonna work for me, WTH! Guess I'll have to go with another vendor, I need minimum 3 slots. 5.0G and 2.5G ... OMG garbage, so I have to fill one slot with my 10G NIC. This is ridiculous! WTF were ASUS thinking? The M.2 right next to the GPU slot effectively prevents using a water block on a GPU as it will hit the M.2 slot.
Looks decent. Overkill for most, especially at this price. I remember when the ROG line was affordable. Then they brought in ROG Strix as the affordable replacement. Now even that is out of budget for many.
Board looks nice overall but i cant get over the price and some of the decisions. It is more than what a extreme board use to cost only a few years ago. only 4 sata ports, why 3 addressable rgb ports and not 1 4 pin when they can be daisy chained. Only 2 pcie slots but they can fit 2 internal type c ports and 4 on the back panel, 2 being 40gig... who would use 6 type c ports on a desktop? Why is there a 5g and 2.5g Ethernet port? who needs 2, just put 1 good quality 10g nic and be done with it. Why not change one of the 10g type a ports to 2 or 3 usb 2 ports. less bandwidth and better legacy support with peripherals that don't play nice with usb 3.2? I think the some of the technical choices are a bit questionable.
Are we gonna talk about the fact that there is only a mic-in and line-out ports at the back? The board feature the SupremeFX 7.1 Surround Sound High Definition Audio CODEC ALC4082 but "A chassis with an HD audio module in the front panel is required to support 7.1 Surround Sound audio output." (sic) Now please Asus point me to one of your pc case featuring a 7.1 audio output on the front panel.... I'll (not) be waiting.....
Yeah this is driving me crazy and every reviewer and I mean EVERY one has not brought up the fact that this generation of MOBOS dropped support for 5.1 systems.

What about Asus ROG Strix X870E or Asus Tuf X780E or even Asus Rro whatever X870 non E? I will buy X870 board only if it goes down to like $200-300 any brand, i don't care to only stick with Asus anyway, in 2011-2012 i built 3 rigs, one with Asus mobo, and one with Gigabyte and one with Asrock, only Asrock mobo damaged but they were all working flawlessly, i even installed Win 10 on them all before and they are working like charm, so Asus isn't my only option anyway, and Crosshair Hero isn't the only mobo available in the world anyway.

I see zero reason to upgrade my 670E that already has TB4.
amd made ryzen 1000 for 350 x370, ryzen made for ryzen 3000 and 5000 same motherboard b450 x570, ryzen made 2 motherboards for ryzen 7000- 8000 0 logic but ok.
Daylight robbery by Asus
pricing is definitely something to watch.... The GBP prices seem to low in comparison to the 'leaked' USD prices
$800 and no PS/2 port? lol
The Gene had it but they axed that product line unfortunately.
What about Asus ROG Strix X870E or Asus Tuf X780E or even Asus Rro whatever X870 non E? I will buy X870 board only if it goes down to like $200-300 any brand, i don't care to only stick with Asus anyway, in 2011-2012 i built 3 rigs, one with Asus mobo, and one with Gigabyte and one with Asrock, only Asrock mobo damaged but they were all working flawlessly, i even installed Win 10 on them all before and they are working like charm, so Asus isn't my only option anyway, and Crosshair Hero isn't the only mobo available in the world anyway.
