Combo Contents

This bundle pairs an ASUS ROG STRIX X870-A GAMING WIFI S motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X processor. The board uses the AMD X870 chipset and AM5 socket, supporting Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series CPUs. The included 9600X delivers 6 cores and 12 threads based on the Zen 5 architecture with a 5.4 GHz maximum boost clock. It is unlocked for overclocking and earned a CES 2025 Innovation Award Honoree designation.

Suitability

The combination suits builders who want a ready-to-run platform for gaming and AI-focused workloads without selecting separate components. The robust 16+2+2 power stage design rated at 90A per stage handles multi-core loads, while AI Overclocking, AI Cooling II and AI Networking simplify tuning. Users needing more than 6 cores or a different form factor should consider alternative kits.

Connectivity and Storage

The motherboard provides four M.2 slots: two PCIe 5.0 and two PCIe 4.0, each equipped with substantial heatsinks. Rear I/O includes USB4 and WiFi 7 for high-speed peripherals and wireless networking. DDR5 AEMP support eases memory configuration. These features give the system fast storage expansion and modern connectivity out of the box.

Questions about this item

What memory kit must I already have to use this board?

You need DDR5 modules; the board uses AEMP profiles to configure them automatically.

Will my PCIe 4.0 graphics card and M.2 drives work in the new slots?

Yes — the two PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots and the PCIe 5.0 x16 slot are backward compatible with 4.0 devices.

How can I confirm the 5.4 GHz boost clock is active after assembly?

Watch the CPU frequency in the BIOS hardware monitor or in ASUS AI Suite while running a single-thread load.
