ASUS X470 ROG CROSSHAIR VII HERO (WI-FI) AM4 ATX Motherboard

    Features   Powered by AMD® Ryzen™ 2 AM4 and 7th generation Athlon™ processors to maximize connectivity and speed with dual NVMe M.2, onboard 802.11ac Wi-Fi, front panel USB 3.1 Gen2 and gigabit LAN 5-Way Optimization featuring Auto-Tuning and FanXpert 4 provides automatic overclocking profiles for maximum OC performance with external clock generator Aura Sync RGB lighting with two addressable headers features a nearly endless spectrum of colors with the ability to synchronize effects across an ever-expanding ecosystem of Aura Sync enabled products Pre-mounted I/O shield ensures streamlined installation and represents ROG’s attention to detail and quality Industry-leading 8-channel HD audio with the ROG exclusive SupremeFX S1220 driven by Japanese capacitors   Overview   SILKSCREEN LABELS ROG Crosshair VII Hero wears an informative silkscreen that makes it easy to identify native ports for your drives and peripherals, and also which PCI Express and memory slots to populate for best system performance.   AURA SYNC ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of functional presets for built-in RGB LEDs and for lighting strips connected to the onboard RGB headers. And it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-capable ASUS hardware.   * The Aura RGB-strip header supports 5050 RGB LED strips with a max power rating of 3A (12V). For maximum brightness, strip length should not exceed 3m. **RGB extension cables are included. LED strips and Aura Sync-compatible devices are sold separately.   OC DESIGN ASUS PRO CLOCK TECHNOLOGY By default, all of Ryzen's major bus frequencies are derived from the same reference clock, limiting the control and flexibility needed to harness the full overclocking potential of the platform. ROG Crosshair VII Hero features a dedicated onboard clock generator that supplies dynamic reference clocks to the CPU cores and major subdomains, giving you the freedom to coax every MHz of headroom from the system.       Specification   CPU AMD AM4 Socket AMD Ryzen™ 2nd Generation/Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics/Ryzen™ 1st Generation/7th Generation A-series/Athlon X4 Processors * Refer to www.asus.com for CPU support list Chipset AMD X470 Memory AMD Ryzen™ 2nd Generation Processors 4 x DIMM, Max. 64GB, DDR4 3466(O.C.)/3200(O.C.)/3000(O.C.)/2933(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666/2400/2133 MHz Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory * AMD Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics/ Ryzen™ 1st Generation Processors 4 x DIMM, Max. 64GB, DDR4 3200(O.C.)/3000(O.C.)/2933(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666/2400/2133 MHz Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory * AMD 7th Generation A-Series/Athlon X4 Processors 4 x DIMM, Max. 64GB, DDR4 2400/2133 MHz Un-buffered Memory Dual Channel Memory Architecture Multi-GPU Support AMD Ryzen™ 2nd Generation/Ryzen™ 1st Generation Processors Supports NVIDIA® 2-Way SLI™ Technology *1 Supports AMD 3-Way CrossFireX™ Technology AMD Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics/AMD 7th Generation A-Series/Athlon X4 Processors Supports AMD CrossFireX™ Technology Expansion Slots AMD Ryzen™ 2nd Generation/ Ryzen™ 1st Generation Processors 2 x PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16 (x16 or dual x8) *2 AMD Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics /7th Generation A-Series/Athlon X4 Processors 1 x PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16 (x8 mode) AMD X470 chipset 1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (max at x4 mode) 2 x PCIe 2.0 x1 Storage AMD Ryzen™ 2nd Generation/ Ryzen™ 1st Generation Processors : 1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 storage devices support (SATA & PCIE 3.0 x 4 mode) 1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280 storage devices support (PCIE 3.0 x 4 mode) AMD 7th Generation A-Series/Athlon X4 Processors : *3 1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 storage devices support (SATA mode) AMD X470 chipset : 6 x SATA 6Gb/s port(s), Support Raid 0, 1, 10 LAN Intel® I211-AT, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller(s) Anti-surge LANGuard ROG GameFirst IV Wireless Data Network Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Supports dual band frequency 2.4/5 GHz Supports MU-MIMO Bluetooth Bluetooth V4.2*4 Audio ROG SupremeFX 8-Channel High Definition Audio CODEC S1220 - Impedance sense for front and rear headphone outputs - Supports : Jack-detection, Multi-streaming, Front Panel Jack-retasking - High quality 120 dB SNR stereo playback output and 113 dB SNR recording input - SupremeFX Shielding Technology - ESS® ES9023P - Supports up to 32-Bit/192kHz playback *5 Audio Feature : - Gold-plated jacks - Optical S/PDIF out port(s) at back panel - Sonic Radar III - Sonic Studio III USB Ports AMD Ryzen™ 2nd Generation/ Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics/ Ryzen™ 1st Generation/7th Generation A-Series/Athlon X4 Processors : 4 x USB 3.1 Gen 1 port(s) (4 at back panel, blue) AMD X470 chipset : 1 x USB 3.1 Gen 2 front panel connector port(s) AMD X470 chipset : 6 x USB 3.1 Gen 1 port(s) (4 at back panel, blue) AMD X470 chipset : 5 x USB 2.0 port(s) (2 at back panel, , 3 at mid-board) ASMedia® USB 3.1 Gen 2 controller : 2 x USB 3.1 port(s) (2 at back panel, black+red, Type-A + USB Type-CTM) ROG Exclusive Features Clear CMOS button ROG RAMCache II ROG CPU-Z MemOK!
