HungryGeeks Approved

The ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Gene sits at an odd place for high-end consumers. It has all the amenities of a flagship motherboard but some features have been cutdown in the name of overclocking. It is an expensive board but those who want to take their overclocking to the next level while still having a relatively well-rounded board for regular use, then the ROG Crosshair X670 Gene is one to look out for.

Do you want a top quality X670E platform AM5 board in a handy compact but not unnecessarily restrictive size? So mATX? So this is your only option and choice.

Golden Alzak

ASUS X670E CROSSHAIR GENE offers very extensive manual clocking and tuning options for the CPU and RAM. Crucially, however, the board also features great automation for both CPU and RAM overclocking, which works flawlessly. This will come in handy especially for inexperienced users, but also for those who want maximum performance and don't want to waste time.

Alza Gold

For the uncompromising basis for Ryzen 7000, which is the ASUS X670E ROG CROSSHAIR GENE motherboard, I award our highest award, the Alza Gold award.

Platinum award

If you're chasing a small board, but you don't need a miniITX, microATX does the job perfectly, this X670E GENE brings full flagship capabilities in a small package, with numerous software and hardware accessories, without any compromises or unnecessary and unimportant solutions.

According to my free estimate, and BTW I've been playing with this board for the last week and testing it - ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X670 EXTREME GENE can claim the title of the most powerful micro ATX board of the new generation without any problems!

With five awards, four of which for ASUS, the X670 chipset seems like a home run for the said manufacturer.

The AMD Ryzen 7000 series desktop CPUs are coming and since you’ll be needing a brand new AM5 motherboard if you’re going for the upgrade, the earliest models you can get right now are the X670 and X670E chipset motherboards. We managed to get our hands on some for testing out the new Ryzen 9 7950X and one of the motherboards is my personal favorite so far – the ROG Crosshair X670E Gene.
