A new frontier of ASUS Prime Looking for a straightforward motherboard that offers you the features, reliable performance, and unobtrusive design that you need, all for an attainable price? Our ASUS Prime lineup has what you’re looking for. We’re offering a trio of Prime boards for the new AMD platform. Atop the stack sits the Prime X670E-Pro WiFi. With its support for DDR5, PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, and PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot, this is a cost-effective option for anyone building out a next-gen PC. WiFi 6E, a Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet port, and a Thunderbolt 4 header all add to its already-impressive value proposition. And that’s before you consider its DIY-friendly feature lineup. Its pre-mounted I/O shield streamlines the installation process, it features our PCIe Slot Q-Release button that takes the hassle out of removing a graphics card, and its Q-LED diagnostic array takes the guesswork out of troubleshooting. The breathtaking transfer speeds offered by PCIe 5.0 SSDs make all the difference in many workloads, but perhaps that’s not a must-have feature on your AM5 motherboard shopping list. We designed the Prime X670-P WiFi and Prime X670-P just for you. These boards get the job done with their DDR5 support and offer ample room for storage with their three onboard M.2 slots. A Thunderbolt 4 header lets you set up a flexible, high-speed front-panel port in a compatible case. If onboard wireless networking is a must, grab the Prime X670-P WiFi, which offers WiFi 6 connectivity. If you’re content with wired networking, opt for the otherwise-identical Prime X670-P.

The prime boards for about 500€? As in THESE news? Was this 500€ "attainable" price before or after they again whined because of "the market losing 25%" after the pandemic? Sometimes I get the feeling the only thing helping the normal Joe would be force against idiot marketers and CEOs giving out such "news", like my favorite French invention, the guillotine.

the welcome news for me are the m-atx and itx but i'm far more curious about the X670 (non "E") mobos. we have to wait because the pimps always show the prettiest/costliest ones first
