La sortie de Ryzen est l’occasion pour Asus de déployer tout une nouvelle gamme de carte mère au socket AM4. L’offre est assez vaste avec plusieurs références architecturées autour des chipsets X370 et B350. La vitrine technologique est incarnée par l’Asus ROG Crosshair VI Hero.
Le constructeur vise en priorité les joueurs et les bidouilleurs alias les adeptes de l’overclocking. Selon les références nous avons plusieurs technologies maisons comme le 5-Way Optimization, leFan Xpert 4, le GPU-temperature sensing, le Pro Clock ou encore le T-Topology de troisième génération. Asus parle également d’une évolution de l’éclairage Aura.
Ryzen, Asus annonce les ROG Crosshair VI Hero et les Prime X370-Pro, B350-Plus et B350M-A
Parmi ces nouvelles cartes mères nous retrouvons la ROG Crosshair VI Hero et les Prime X370-Pro, B350-Plus et B350M-A dont vous retrouverez leur caractéristiques en fin de cette article.
La ROG Crosshair VI Hero se présente comme le « must have » de cette offre avec un mécanique accès sur l’overclocking en particulier grâce à la technologie T-Topologie. Cette dernière est censée proposer un contrôle plus équilibré afin de parfaire le potentiel de l’overclocking. Cette fonction permet par exemple d’annoncer une prise en charge de DDR4 au-delà de 3200MHz dans une configuration à quatre canaux.
Voici le détail de toutes ces nouveautés.
