AWARDS
TECKKNOW GOLD AWARD
The ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero packs all modern features that incorporate all of the 4+ years of AMD AM4 platform as X570 will be the last high-end AM4 chipset before the switch to a new socket for Zen 4 processors with DDR5 memory support. So, in that sense, this is the last and the best X570 motherboard by ASUS. The VRM is built for the extreme and ready for anything with a premium 90A 8-phase parallel (8×2) design, that can handle LN2 and your world record ambition if you like.
9.5 OUT OF 10
For those who want quietness and reliability, there is good reason to opt for this model since its massive heatsinks effectively void the need for active cooling on the X570 chipset.
