An ATX AM5 board paired with a 170 W 16-core Zen 5 CPU, offering 256 GB DDR5 4400 support, dual USB4, 10 Gb and 2.5 Gb Ethernet, WiFi 7, two PCIe 5.0 x16 slots and four M.2 slots
Motherboard ProArt X870E-CREATOR WIFI
CPU + R9 9950X3D
The ASUS ProArt X870E-CREATOR WIFI motherboard paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU targets professional content creators and AI workloads. The AM5 platform supports Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series processors with up to 256GB of DDR5 4400 memory across four slots. Dual USB4 ports, 10 Gb and 2.5 Gb Ethernet, WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 provide high-speed connectivity for demanding creative pipelines.
Sixteen plus two plus two teamed power stages with ProCool II connectors, alloy chokes and durable capacitors deliver stable current to the 170W Ryzen 9 9950X3D during extended rendering or AI training sessions. AI Cooling and AI Networking II dynamically adjust fan curves and traffic prioritisation to maintain thermal headroom without manual tuning. The 128MB L3 cache on the CPU reduces memory latency when large datasets remain resident for hours.
PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim with SafeSlot, M.2 Q-Release, Q-Slide and Q-Latch allow tool-free installation of graphics cards and up to four M.2 drives in 2242, 2260 or 2280 form factors. Q-Antenna simplifies WiFi 7 antenna attachment and BIOS FlashBack updates firmware without a CPU installed. Builders should verify that the second PCIe 5.0 x16 slot shares bandwidth with M.2_2, so populating both at full speed is not possible.

Other versions of this model
Same family, different memory, cooler or clock — compare before you commit.
The CPU has a 170W base power rating, so sustained workloads will demand strong cooling; the board includes AI Cooling and a 16+2+2 teamed power-stage design to manage thermals.
You need DDR5 modules — 288-pin, un-buffered, non-ECC or ECC — up to 256GB total; the board supports EXPO profiles and OptiMem II for stability.
Yes — one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot runs at x4 electrical, and two chipset M.2 slots provide PCIe 4.0 x4 bandwidth for older drives.
