ROG Crosshair X870E HERO BTF
The ROG Crosshair X870E Hero BTF features hidden connectors for motherboard and GPU power, USB, and fan cables, delivering an ultra-clean look for your AMD Ryzen™ 9000 build. It pairs robust power delivery with ASUS-exclusive AI-enhanced tuning, PCIe® 5.0, and DDR5 slots with NitroPath DRAM Technology for advanced memory performance. Plus, Polymo Lighting II adds striking visual flair to your rig.
Advanced BTF Design
With the combination of a BTF graphics card, motherboard and chassis, you can enjoy a full hidden-connector experience. This Advanced BTF approach is achieved through the new graphics card high-power slot available on BTF motherboards, which can deliver up to 600 watts to BTF graphics cards. With a full set of BTF components, builders can eliminate visible cables for an extra-clean aesthetic.
HIDDEN-CONNECTOR DESIGN
The hidden-connector design can be ideal for first-time builders, because it provides easier cable management. The absence of visible cables also creates a clean and tidy look that would normally require an expert.
GRAPHICS CARD HIGH-POWER SLOT
The graphics card high-power slot stands ready to supply all the wattage that a BTF graphics card needs. This special design can deliver up to 600 watts through the motherboard itself, eliminating the need for visible 8-pin or 16-pin power cables on the front.

Performance OVERCLOCKING
Dynamic OC Switcher
Dynamic OC Switcher maximizes CPU performance by letting you set current and temperature thresholds to automatically switch between a manual overlock for heavy multithreaded workloads and Precision Boost Overdrive for single-threaded tasks. The latest Overclocking Load Guard has an enhanced instantaneous current protection mechanism to prevent users from experiencing system crashes during overclocking.
Core Flex
Core Flex empowers you to smash limits farther than ever before by letting you control clock, power, and thermals in creative new ways.

Asynchronous Clock
For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Crosshair X870E Hero BTF features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, PCIe, and the Infinity Fabric speed.

PBO ENHANCEMENT
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance.

Performance MEMORY
DDR5 DOMINATION
Thanks to improved signal routing, now enthusiast-grade kits can be driven far beyond the 8 GT/s mark on the ROG Crosshair X870E Hero BTF*.

DIMM Fit / DIMM Fit Pro
DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyzes individual memory modules to optimize performance and pinpoint potential issues; whereas DIMM Fit Pro is an advanced option that provides more extensive customizability for memory optimization.

NitroPath DRAM Technology
Frequency up to 400 MT/s higher
Slot retention force enhanced by 57%
