ASUS ROG Zenith II Extreme Review - One of the best TRX40! / Threadripper 3970x 32c / Quad 3000 Mhz

Gold Award

The ASUS ROG Zenith Extreme is an extremely feature packed and extremely well designed and built Threadripper motherboard.

Premium

“At £500 inc. V.A.T. the ROG Zenith is certainly at the premium end of the AMD X399 High End Desktop motherboard market, but it is choc-full of features from 802.11ac WIFI to RGB LED lighting, and is an extremely robust overclocker with great stability. If Threadripper is the only game in town and you have deep pockets to match extreme performance, the ROG X399 Zenith Extreme is surely the motherboard for you. The ASUS ROG X399 Zenith Extreme nets a well deserved Premium award!”

Extreme Ultra

“The most extreme X399 motherboard available, but it’s worth every penny if you have the cash.”

Extreme Performance

“ASUS RoG decided to go big rather than go home. The Zenith E-ATX X399 motherboard has so many features, they couldn’t fit them onto the motherboard. It may be one of the more expensive, but it justifies the price with excellent performance, amazing extras like a 10GbE card, DIMM.2, and so much more. Enthusiasts and content creators are going to love this motherboard.”

Extreme

“Perhaps one consolation and quite an eye-opening fact is that if you opt for the Threadripper 1950X compared to Intel's equivalent 16-core, the Core i9-7960X, you'll be saving around £600, allowing you to splash out on the ROG Zenith Extreme and maybe have some cash left over too. In any event, this is certainly an extreme motherboard for a lucky select few, but the on-board cooling, layout, features and aesthetics are fantastic and anyone building a Threadripper system should be seriously considering it.”

Enthusiast Grade

“The Zenith is a master piece that just shows what Asus can do!”

Great product

What to say, ASUS ROG Zenith Extreme is one of the best-equipped X399 motherboards.

Great design

The panel is kept in a dark color, and the whole is completed by a spectacular RGB LED backlight - diodes are placed at the bottom edge of the laminate, on the chipset's heatsink and back panel cover, and you can attach two RGB LED tapes and one RGB WS2812B LED or WS2812B.
