Overview:

ASUS Prime series motherboards are expertly engineered to unleash the full potential of AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. Boasting a robust power design, comprehensive cooling solutions and intelligent tuning options, the PRIME X870-P-CSM motherboard provides users and PC DIY builders with a range of performance optimizations via intuitive software and firmware features. It’s designed to be Advanced AI PC-ready, offering the power and connectivity needed for demanding AI applications.

Robust power design

Stable power is crucial for maximizing the performance of AMD processors. The PRIME X870-P-CSM is designed to meet the needs of high-core-count CPUs. It features 14(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated for up to 80 amperes each. This configuration ensures optimal power delivery, efficiency, stability and performance for both current and future AMD processors.

Enhanced DDR5 performance

Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of PRIME motherboards. The PRIME X870-P-CSM maximizes the potential of your DDR5 modules, from entry-level to extreme-speed kits.For entry-level modules without EXPO support, ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and provides optimized profiles for enhanced performance.For those looking to surpass stock DDR5 speeds, the PRIME X870-P-CSM offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support and a wide array of UEFI settings for further performance tweaks.

Four M.2 slots (up to 128 Gbps)

PRIME X870-P-CSM offers a total of four M.2 slots, including one that supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128 Gbps via PCIe 5.0, two that support 64 Gbps via PCIe 4.0, and one that supports PCIe 3.0. This enables quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.

Cooler by design

The PRIME X870-P-CSM motherboard is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to help ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.

Smart Cooling precision

ASUS Fan Xpert 4 software offers comprehensive control over fans and AIO coolers. Auto-Tuning mode configures settings with one click, while Extreme Quiet mode reduces fan speeds for silent operation during light tasks. Controls are also available via the UEFI BIOS.

AI Cooling II

Optimized thermals and reduced noise via dynamic adjustment of fan speeds, based on CPU temperatures.

Cooler compatibility

ASUS AIO coolers offer robust performance, high overclocking potential, bold aesthetics and customizable functionality for new motherboards, empowering you to build your dream gaming rig.

Empowering connections

The PRIME X870-P-CSM motherboard offers a versatile range of connectivity, including support for PCIe 5.0, Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet, and an array of USB ports.

USB 40Gbps Type-C ports

Each port delivers up to 40Gbps of bi-directional bandwidth for the latest super-speed devices and drives. Both ports can be employed for up to two external 4K displays.

PCIe 5.0 slot

The latest processors introduce PCIe 5.0 support, doubling data transfer speeds compared to PCIe 4.0, enhancing signal integrity, and providing backward-compatible CEM connectors and support for previous PCIe versions.

Personalization

The PRIME X870-P-CSM enhances the user experience across the board, from simplifying BIOS setting adjustments to offering customizable RGB lighting controls for a uniquely personal system aesthetic.

DIY friendly

The PRIME X870-P-CSM motherboard features EZ PC DIY innovations that simplify and speed up the PC building process, making DIY easy and convenient.

PCIe Slot Q-Release

A physical lever unlocks the first PCIe slot’s security latch with one tap, greatly simplifying the process of detaching a PCIe card from the motherboard when it’s time to upgrade to a new graphics card or other compatible device.

M.2 Q-Latch

The innovative ASUS Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools or screws. This design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly detach it with one tap.

Q-LED Core

The Q-LED Core display produces color-coded lights during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) that can help you troubleshoot potential issues.

Pre-Mounted I/O Shield

Our pre-installed I/O shield safeguards ports, simplifies the build process, increases functionality and enhances aesthetics for PC DIY enthusiasts.

BIOS FlashBack

BIOS FlashBack simplifies BIOS updates. Just load the BIOS file onto a FAT32 USB stick, insert it into the BIOS FlashBack port, and press a button—no CPU or memory needed.

SafeSlot

PCIe 5.0 is twice as fast as PCIe 4.0. ASUS has adapted our SMT manufacturing for the faster SafeSlot, a reinforced metal sheath that ensures secure card installation and faster data speeds.
