Scheda madre ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Impact AMD X570 Socket AM4 Mini DTX

AMD AM4 X570 Mini-DTX enthusiast gaming motherboard with an SO-DIMM.2 card (dual M.2), Wi-Fi 6 (802.11 ax), PCIe 4.0, SupremeFX audio, Aura Sync RGB LED lighting, SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3.2 Gen 2

Crosshair VIII IMPACT
The ROG Crosshair VIII series heralds the arrival of Impact, the compact motherboard with colossal potential. Primped and primed for latest 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen CPUs, Crosshair VIII Impact's Mini-DTX frame packs loads of ATX-grade features, including advanced power delivery and cooling, dual M.2, next-gen Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and onboard SupremeFX audio. It's the perfect choice for a small-form-factor gaming rig ready to rival full-size builds.

COMPACT DESIGN
Impact's unusual Mini-DTX form factor is a deliberate choice. Many Mini-ITX cases ship with enough space for a dual-slot graphics card, meaning there's typically unused space below the bottom PCIe® slot – space that could be utilized to mount more components or enable additional features. Being marginally taller than mini-ITX allows Impact to exploit this unused space, allowing ROG engineers to squeeze in features while still fitting a large proportion of mini-ITX PC cases.

ROG Crosshair VIII Impact stacks up storage, audio and control features onto innovative vertical daughter boards, leaving us spare room onboard to add more connectivity and engineer features normally found on ATX boards into a small-form-factor (SFF) footprint.

OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE
ROG Crosshair VIII Impact is equipped with an optimized power design and comprehensive cooling to exploit prodigious might of the latest AMD Ryzen processors without performance-zapping thermal throttling. It also packs innovations to double up on memory and push frequencies to the max.

POWER DESIGN
The monstrous compute power of multi-core processors necessitates a power circuit that rapidly responds to massive current swings. Featuring an array of 10 strategically paired power stages, the Impact's VRM is geared for any workload and all operating conditions.

THE POWER OF AMD

How to use

Install the motherboard into a compatible Mini‑ITX or Mini‑DTX case that provides clearance for the Mini‑DTX height and a dual‑slot graphics card if required. Fit an AM4‑series Ryzen processor and apply the recommended CPU cooler, connect dual DDR4 memory modules in the two DIMM slots, and attach storage devices to the M.2 SO‑DIMM.2 module and SATA ports as needed. Configure BIOS settings using the ROG UEFI interface for memory XMP profiles, boot order and performance tuning. Install necessary drivers and ASUS utilities in the operating system to enable networking, audio and Aura Sync RGB control.

Recommendations

For stable high-load operation, use a high‑quality CPU cooler and ensure case airflow is sufficient; update the UEFI BIOS and network drivers to the latest versions before heavy use, and populate both memory slots to enable dual‑channel performance.
