ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus, AMD X570 Motherboard - Socket AM4 [90MB1180-M0EAY0]

PCIe 4.0 is backwards compatible and can be used with all previous generations of expansion cards. Each PCIe 4.0 lane has twice the data transfer rate compared to PCIe 3.0, so an NVMe SSD connected via four PCIe 4.0 lanes can achieve a theoretical read / write speed of up to 7.8 GB / s. Each motherboard with the X570 chipset is also suitable for all other AMD CPU series for the socket AM4.

Attention: The following PCIe lane specifications, M.2 slot connectivity and PCIe slot connectivity refers to the combination of the X570 chipset with a third generation Ryzen CPU (Ryzen 3000 / Zen 2 / Matisse) !

The features of the ASUS TUF Gaming X570 Plus motherboard at a glance:
- Extensive RGB LED lighting with Aura Sync
- A total of 3 RGB LED headers for connecting z. B. RGB strips
- DDR4 memory up to 3,200 MHz, using RAM-OC up to 4,400 MHz
- 1x M.2 slot with x4 PCIe 4.0 connection directly to the CPU
- 1 additional M.2 slot with PCIe 4.0 x4 connection via the chipset
- 2x PCIe 4.0 x16 slots for high-end graphics cards
- USB on the I / O panel: 4x USB 3.0 / 2x USB 3.1 Type A / 1x USB 3.1 Type C
- Internal USB ports: 4x USB 2.0 / 2x USB 3.0
- A total of 6x 4-pin PWM headers for fans and pumps

The ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus in detail:
The ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus is an ATX motherboard in the TUF Gaming Alliance design and has a stylish RGB LED lighting at the bottom right edge. Lighting can be controlled via the manufacturer's Armory Crate software. Additional RGB LED components can be connected and controlled via two 4-pin RGB headers (12V) and a 3-pin digitally addressable RGB header (5V), provided that they are compatible with the motherboard's RGB software.

For graphics cards, an PCIe 4.0 slot in x16 format is available, which is directly connected to the Ryzen 3000 processor via a total of 16 PCIe 4.0 lanes. Another PCIe x16 slot is connected to the chipset via 4 lanes (PCIe 4.0 at Ryzen 3000, PCIe 3.0 for all predecessor generations). For plug-in and expansion cards, there are also three PCIe-x1 slots available.
Faster connections thanks to PCI-Express 4.0
The Ryzen 3000 CPUs provide four PCIe 4.0 lanes for direct connection to NVMe SSDs. This X570 motherboard uses these four lanes to connect a single M.2 slot to NVMe SSDs. In addition to another M.2 slot with x4 connection, the X570 chipset also provides eight SATA 6G ports.

On the I / O panel, the ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus offers three USB 3.1 ports, one with Type C and two with Type A connector. USB 3.1 or USB 3.1 Gen 2 achieves maximum speeds of 10 Gbit / s per port, and USB ports with this standard generally support the fast-charging function of smartphones and tablets, while the novel type-C USB port is very thin and can be inserted on both sides. In addition, four USB 3.0 ports are provided.

Furthermore, this X570 motherboard offers features such as Gigabit LAN (Realtek L8200A), on-board sound (Realtek S1220A Audio Codec), enhanced PCIe slots and numerous internal headers. Bo (a) rd also includes OC features, an optimized power supply and support for OC-RAM kits up to 4,400 MHz
