The Crosshair VIII Hero
Featuring support for 3rd Gen AMD Ryzenâ„¢ CPUs, on-board
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), Realtek® 2.5 Gbps LAN and PCIe 4.0, coupled with an
overhauled metallic design and loaded with renowned ROG features, it's the
perfect foundation for your AMD Ryzen rig.
BOOSTED PERFORMANCE, NO BOTTLENECKS​
ROG Crosshair VIII Hero comes equipped with an optimized
power-design layout and all the cooling headers you need to handle the
prodigious power of the latest AMD Ryzen processors without performance-zapping
thermal throttling.​
POWER DESIGN THAT BUCKS TRENDS
The monstrous compute power of multi-core processors
necessitates a power circuit that rapidly responds to massive current swings.
Featuring an array of 16 strategically paired power stages, the Hero's VRM is
geared for any workload and all operating conditions.
OPTIMEM III
DDR4 4800+ MHZ (O.C.)
Infused with proprietary memory trace layout tweaks that
improve signal integrity and mitigate noise, Optimem III allows memory kits to
run at lower latencies, reduced voltages, and operate at higher frequencies.
Stack the Hero with your favorite modules and maximize Matisse throughput for
applications that demand massive bandwidth, or balance infinity fabric and
memory performance for a diverse range of workloads.
COMPREHENSIVE COOLING ZONE
ROG Crosshair VIII Hero features the most comprehensive
cooling options ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.
HEATSINKS
Heatsinks are extremely important for motherboards, as they
absorb heat from critical areas to ensure components do not stagger due to
overheating. With VRM, chipset​ and M.2 heatsinks, ROG Crosshair VIII Hero
ensures efficient and stable operation even when pushed hard.
ACTIVE CHIPSET HEATSINK DESIGN
PCle 4.0 provides twice the bandwidth for data flowing
through the chipset, which creates more heat than the previous generation.
The Hero features an actively cooled heatsink to prevent
throttling during sustained transfers.
UNCOMPLICATED SYSTEM TUNING​
ROG gives you powerful tools that make optimizing your
system fast and easy. For those who relish fine-grained control, the UEFI BIOS
has a wealth of advanced options organized into intuitive categories that
provide the ability to tweak every aspect of your system​.
UEFI BIOS
The renowned ROG UEFI (BIOS) provides everything you need to
configure, tweak, and tune your rig. It offers intelligently simplified options
for newcomers to PC DIY, as well as comprehensive features for seasoned
veterans.
ACCURATE VOLTAGE MONITORING
Conventional motherboards ues single-ended sensing tapped
from a location that isn't ideal, leading to a large disparity between the
actual voltage fed to the CPU and the value reported to software. The Hero
features a differential sensing circuit that simplifies overclocking and tuning
by allowing you to track voltages more accurately.
PERFORMANCE LEVEL UP
AI Suite 3's dashboard-style control panel lets you
fine-tune almost every aspect of your system. Get the best balance between
performance, cooling, stability, and efficiency via one simple and intuitive
interface.​
CPU-PERFORMANCE BOOST
The TurboV Processing Unit (TPU) is an intelligent onboard
micro-controller that provides an array of system-tuning features, including
the ability to fine-tune voltages, monitor system stats and adjust overclocking
parameters.
ALL-AROUND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
With the Energy Processing Unit (EPU) you'll enjoy
system-wide power savings. The EPU automatically optimizes power consumption
and maximizes savings with Away mode — a smart setting that creates an extreme
energy-saving scenario by shutting down unused I/O controllers.
FLEXIBLE COOLING CONTROLS FOR AIR OR LIQUID
Enjoy comprehensive control over fans, water pumps and
all-in-one (AIO) coolers, via either Fan Expert 4 or our award-winning UEFI.
Whether you're cooling with air or water, Auto-Tuning mode intelligently
configures all parameters with a single click. There's also an Extreme Quiet
mode, which reduces all fan speeds to below the default minimum — keeping your
system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks.​
PRECISE DIGITAL POWER CONTROL
The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time
control over voltage droop, switching frequency and power-efficiency settings,
allowing you to fine-tune CPU voltage regulation for ultimate stability and
performance.
TURBO APP
AMD's processors feature per-core tuning, and the ASUS Turbo
app makes use of this feature by letting you assign applications to specific
processor cores, prioritizing computing power where it's needed most.​
