ASUS is announcing a workstation motherboard for the Z390 chipset, it is the WS Z390 Pro. It of course has support for 8th generation Core processors, but the big thing with this board is that it makes use of a PCI-Express 3.0 x48 bridge chip.

The Prime X299-Deluxe II gives professionals and power users a flexible foundation for serious work and it is not alone, ROG engineers are also working on a new Rampage motherboard geared toward hardcore gamers and overclockers, while the ROG Dominus Extreme shows what's possible when our engineers have the freedom to go beyond traditional boundaries

ASUS is excited to support this new generation of Intel processors with a wide variety of new motherboards based on the Intel Z390 chipset. The collection is led by a diverse cast from the Republic of Gamers that elevates gaming and overclocking to new heights.

ASUS in conjunction with G.Skill and Zadak have designed a non-JEDEC UDIMM standard, called "Double Capacity DIMM" or DC DIMM. The whole idea of these modules is to max out the CPU memory controllers limit despite having only two memory slots on your motherboard.

ASUS Republic of Gamers today announced ROG Delta and ROG Delta Core, a new series of gaming headsets tuned especially for first-person shooter (FPS) gaming. The headsets feature Sony-certified Hi-Res Audio and are designed to be incredibly lightweight and comfortable.

ASUS has just launched their Republic of Gamers (ROG) Ryujin line of all-in-one (AiO) liquid CPU coolers, specifically designed for AMD's Ryzen Threadripper processors. These are positioned above the ROG Ryuo series. We got our first look at these coolers at Computex 2018.

When it comes to ASUS motherboards you have quite a lot of choices, many users opt for their Republic of Gamers boards, but their Prime line is actually quite good. We've used a "Prime" motherboard as our baseline board for processor testing for both Intel and AMD for the past couple of years. These boards might not have all of the flash that the ROG series does, but they are extremely reliable and are still packed with features. For the Ryzen refresh the main "Prime" board from ASUS is their Prime X470-PRO. This board features a slick design with silver heatsinks and an integrated M.2 cooler as well. You also have support for DDR4 3466 MHz memory, USB 3.1, dual M.2 slots, and even some RGB lighting. Is this the board you need for your Ryzen build? Read on as we find out!

ASUS today announced that the ROG Strix, Prime and TUF Gaming series motherboards built on the AMD B450 chipset and supporting the latest AMD Ryzen processors are now available. AMD's Ryzen platform offers an incredible desktop compute experience with multithreaded horsepower plus accessible overclocking and gaming prowess.

ASUS is working on at least 19 motherboards for the "Coffee Lake-S" refresh. The Z390 chipset is basically a re-branding of the current Z370 chipset with a stronger reference CPU VRM to cope with Intel's upcoming 8-core, 16-thread "Wiskey Lake" processors. ASUS's Z390 lineup will be made up of Maximus XI, STRIX, Prime, TUF and Dragon series boards.
