ROG CROSSHAIR VIII
DARK HERO
Upgraded power delivery, passive chipset cooling, and stealthy aesthetics allow the Crosshair VIII Dark Hero to strike from the shadows and form a menacing duo with AMD Zen 3.
Ryzen Brand Processors
Utilizing AMD CPU architecture, the ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero motherboard allows you to use Ryzen 5000 series, 4000 G-series, 3000 series, 3000 G-series, 2000 series, and 2000 G-series desktop processors. This wide array of components is ideal for creating an optimized gaming rig.
Enhanced Memory Performance
ASUS Optimem III improves signal integrity and mitigates digital noise, allowing memory kits to run at lower latencies and reduced voltages while operating at higher frequencies.
Extreme Cooling Power
The ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero is equipped with a wide array of cooling enhancements for extreme gaming sessions. A VRM and dual M.2 heatsink design works alongside the passive chipset heatsink to keep components from overheating, while multiple 4-pin fan headers and the ROG Water-Cooling Zone allow you to install a variety of fan- or water-cooling systems for increased cooling capabilities.
RGB Lighting with Aura Sync
With two 4-pin Aura RGB headers and two 3-pin Addressable gen 2 RGB headers, you can connect a variety of colorful devices to your motherboard for a stylized look. Additional lighting is integrated right onto the PCH, I/O, and Armor Zone areas with the Aura illumination system for additional luminescence. All of this is controlled with ASUS' Aura Sync program, which allows you to adjust lighting effects and colorization with ease. Additionally, you can configure RGB lighting in supported ROG gaming products with the included Armoury Crate software utility.
SupremeFX Audio
Equipped with Japanese-made Nichicon capacitors, the SupremeFX 7.1-channel surround sound creates a rich, high-definition sound experience. 120dB SNR stereo playback output provides a deep sound, allowing you to sink into your games easily. Sonic Studio III is also included, enabling you to fine-tune your audio experience while also allowing you to record various sounds with optional hardware. The audio jacks themselves are gold plated for optimal sound conductivity, and audio line shielding blocks electromagnetic interference from the motherboard or addons for cleaner sound.
DIY Friendly
An array of features focused on making troubleshooting issues easier is built right into the ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero motherboard. The pre-mounted I/O shield allows easier installation into the PC case, while ESD guards prevent electrostatic discharge from affecting the back panel USB, audio, and LAN ports. LED Q-code panel shows a two-digit code that reflects system status. FlexKey button acts as a system reset button, Aura lighting activation, safe boot, or BIOS function for quick access.
Enhanced Ports
The two PCIe 4.0 x16 slots have increased durability with Safeslot technology, made for greater shearing resistance and better device retention. Four Q-DIMM clips allow simple installation and handling for memory modules. To arrange front-panel cables, the Q-connector is included. Additionally, the back panel USB ports all supply 5-volt power delivery for external devices. Experience unthrottled transfer speed with AMD STOREMI technology that accelerates startup and software load times by combining SSD performance with optional HDDs.
Networking Capabilities
Experience ultrafast wireless-networking speeds with Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) capabilities that improve performance in dense environments, providing enhanced gaming speeds. If you prefer a wired connection, you may utilize the on-board 2.5G LAN Ethernet adapter for lag-free gaming. An additional Gigabit Ethernet controller is also available for teaming capabilities by increasing network bandwidth and transfer speeds with less CPU overhead.
