ASRock X870 PRO RS WiFi - AMD AM5 ATX Motherboard

The ASRock X870 PRO RS WiFi delivers advanced performance for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 series processors. This ATX motherboard combines PCIe 5.0 support, WiFi 7 connectivity, and robust power delivery in a modern design built for gaming and high-performance computing.

Power Delivery and Performance

The 14+2+1 phase power design with 80A Dr.MOS for VCore+SOC ensures stable power delivery for CPU overclocking. The 8-layer PCB design provides reliable signal traces and improved thermal efficiency. Hi-Density power connectors handle higher current loads compared to traditional 8-pin CPU and 24-pin ATX connectors, supporting aggressive overclocking while maintaining system stability.

DDR5 Memory Support

Four DDR5 DIMM slots support dual-channel memory configurations up to 8000MHz+ (OC) with a maximum capacity of 256GB. Intel XMP and AMD EXPO profile support enables easy memory overclocking for enhanced system performance.

Expansion and Storage

The motherboard features one PCIe 5.0 x16 slot and one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot (x4 mode) for graphics cards and expansion devices. Three M.2 slots accommodate high-speed NVMe SSDs: one Blazing M.2 slot with PCIe Gen5 x4 support delivering 128GB/s transfer speeds, one Hyper M.2 slot with PCIe Gen4 x4, and one Ultra M.2 slot supporting PCIe Gen3 x4 and SATA3. Four SATA3 ports provide additional storage connectivity. The toolless M.2 heatsink design with XXL aluminum alloy heatsinks and bottom heatsinks ensures optimal thermal management for storage devices.

Connectivity

WiFi 7 (802.11be) technology delivers extreme wireless speeds with Multi-Link Operation (MLO) for simultaneous multi-band usage, reducing latency for gaming and 8K streaming. Two USB4 Type-C ports on the rear panel provide 40Gbps data transfer rates and display output support. The Realtek 2.5G LAN port offers 2.5X bandwidth compared to standard gigabit ethernet. Additional connectivity includes six USB 3.2 Gen1 ports (4 rear, 2 front), nine USB 2.0 ports (6 rear, 3 front), and a front panel USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C header supporting 20Gbps transfers.

Audio and RGB

Realtek ALC1220 7.1 CH HD Audio Codec with Nahimic Audio enhancement provides immersive sound quality with noise reduction and Sound Tracker features. Onboard RGB and addressable RGB headers support Polychrome RGB Sync for customizable lighting effects across compatible devices.

Cooling and Convenience

Aluminum heatsinks on critical components ensure efficient heat dissipation. PWM/DC fan headers with automatic detection support Fan-Tastic Tuning for customized cooling curves. A thermistor header enables additional temperature monitoring. The BIOS Flashback button allows firmware updates without CPU or RAM installed. The flexible integrated I/O shield and Auto Driver Installer simplify system setup.
