AM3+ Gaming Platform
The ASUS 970 PRO GAMING/AURA is an ATX desktop motherboard built on the AMD 970 chipset for Socket AM3+ processors. It supports AMD FX, Phenom II, Athlon II and Sempron 100 Series CPUs. The board provides four DDR3 memory slots with a maximum capacity of 32 GB and dual-channel operation up to 2133.
Multi-GPU and Connectivity
The motherboard includes two PCI Express x16 slots enabling NVIDIA SLI and AMD CrossFireX configurations for multi-GPU builds. Onboard Intel Gigabit Ethernet with LANGuard and GameFirst technology manages network traffic. SupremeFX audio delivers 7.1-channel output alongside Sonic Radar II for positional sound cues. USB 3.1 Type-A and an M.2 slot provide high-speed peripheral and storage connections.
DDR3 2133 Memory Support
Dual-channel DDR3 support up to 2133 determines the memory bandwidth available to the CPU and integrated graphics. Builders using existing DDR3 kits must verify their modules match this speed rating to achieve rated performance. The 32 GB ceiling across four slots sets the total system memory limit for this platform.

Questions sur cet article
Does the ATX form factor require a specific case size for the 970 PRO GAMING/AURA?
The board follows the ATX form factor, so it fits any case that supports ATX motherboards and provides the standard nine mounting holes and I/O shield cut-out.
What is the correct order for seating the CPU and RAM on this AM3+ board?
Install the AM3+ processor first, lock the lever, then insert DDR3 modules into the four slots; the common mistake is populating memory before the CPU cooler is mounted.
Which components on the 970 PRO GAMING/AURA may need replacement after several years?
The onboard button-cell battery that keeps BIOS settings and the electrolytic capacitors near the CPU socket are the parts most likely to require replacement over time.
