With AMD announcing their 3rd generation Ryzen processors, their partners will surely release their newest X570 motherboards. This time around, ASUS is unleashing a ton of AMD X570 motherboards in order to cater to their customer’s needs.
Crosshair returns for X570
The ROG branding will be front and center in ASUS’ premium motherboards. With a total of six motherboards available in the ROG lineup, customers will surely find a motherboard that will suit their needs.
The ROG Crosshair branding is making a comeback in the X570 era. Composed of three motherboards: the Formula, Hero, and Impact, the new Crosshair boards are designed to hit the fastest speeds in AMD’s 3rd generation Ryzen motherboards.

The X570 platform from ASUS will only carry two ATX motherboards for the TUF series: the TUF Gaming X570-Plus and the TUF Gaming X570-Plus WiFi.
Aside from WiFi capabilities, both motherboards are essentially the same. Both will come with digital VRM and Dr. MOS power stages and TUF chokes to ensure that the CPU gets clean and steady power from the PSU. Its TUF capacitors promises up to 20% higher heat tolerance to keep your system stable.
