If you love assembling and building your own computers, you know that one of the most important parts of a PC build, other than the CPU and GPU, is the motherboard. Today’s deal is the latest motherboard from Asus that uses the AM5 (LGA 1718 socket) platform that supports AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors. The latest Ryzen 9000 series processors should also be supported, but a BIOS update may be required for optimal performance and compatibility.
This sale is running on Newegg, with the Asus Prime X670-P WiFi motherboard now going for $135, down from its original MSRP of $229. The cost of hopping on the AM5 train has come down since its launch, as prices for Ryzen processors and DDR5 RAM have dropped significantly, and with AMD set to launch its Ryzen 9000 series CPUs in the coming weeks and months, now’s the perfect time to get on board.
Asus Prime X670-P WiFi features include three M.2 slots with heatsinks, a large heatsink on the VRM, WiFi 6 with included antennas, 2.5Gb Ethernet, USB4 support, PCIe 5.0, and more.
The Asus Prime X670-P WiFi’s rear IO plate has a ton of rear USB ports: 2 x USB 2.0 Type-A, 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 3 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, and 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C. There’s also a front panel header for a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C. If you have a case that gives a good view of your PC’s innards, the motherboard has stylish RGB edge lighting, as well as an onboard RGB header for other RGB solutions.
