ASUS TUF Gaming X870E-Plus WiFi 7 AM5 ATX Motherboard
The ASUS TUF Gaming X870E-Plus WiFi 7 AM5 ATX Motherboard is built for PC builders who want a stable, feature-rich platform for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 series processors. It pairs a robust 16+2+1 power solution with Wi-Fi 7, USB4 40Gbps connectivity, and four M.2 slots — two of which run PCIe 5.0 — to support demanding gaming and AI workloads. Military-grade components and a comprehensive cooling system are designed to keep performance consistent across extended sessions.
Why this product
16+2+1 Power Stages at 80A Each
The enhanced VRM delivers 80A per stage across 16+2+1 phases, backed by an 8-layer PCB, dual 8-pin ProCool connectors, alloy chokes and durable capacitors for stable power under load.
Wi-Fi 7 with ASUS Q-Antenna
The onboard Realtek RTL8922AE supports Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) and ships with ASUS's Q-Antenna design for straightforward installation.
Four M.2 Slots Including Two PCIe 5.0
Two PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slots and two PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots give storage-intensive builds room to grow, alongside four SATA 6Gb/s ports for additional drives.
USB4 40Gbps and Front 20Gbps USB-C
Two rear USB4 (40Gbps) Type-C ports handle high-speed peripherals and displays, while the front USB 20Gbps Type-C header includes up to 30W Power Delivery fast-charging.
AI-Assisted Tuning Tools
ASUS AI Overclocking, AI Cooling II, AI Networking II, and AEMP memory support simplify setup and help extract consistent performance without manual tuning.
DIY-Friendly Installation Features
PCIe Q-Release Slim, M.2 Q-Latch, pre-mounted I/O shield, and BIOS FlashBack reduce the friction of building and updating without needing a CPU installed.

Best for
- Enthusiast AMD builders who want PCIe 5.0 graphics and storage support together on the X870E chipset.
- Wireless-first setups where Wi-Fi 7 and a 2.5Gb Ethernet port eliminate the need for a separate network card.
- High-bandwidth peripheral users who need two USB4 40Gbps rear ports and a 20Gbps front USB-C with fast-charging.
- Builders running multiple NVMe drives, with four M.2 slots (two PCIe 5.0, two PCIe 4.0) plus four SATA ports.
- Overclockers and AI workload users benefiting from AEMP, EXPO memory support up to 8000+ MT/s, and AI Overclocking tools.
Trade-offs
- Budget system builds — the X870E chipset and feature set sit at the higher end of the AM5 platform.
- Compact or small-form-factor builds — this is a full ATX board at 12.0 x 9.6 in. and will not fit Micro-ATX or Mini-ITX cases.
- Legacy CPU owners — AM4 and Intel processors are not compatible with the AM5 socket.
- Users needing more than one PCIe x16-bandwidth slot — the second PCIe slot runs at x4 mode only.
