There are many hot DIY players who love mini consoles very much. How to create the best cooling environment in the limited space of the mini chassis and put more powerful accessories into it is a great test of the DIY level, and it is also fun. As the leader in the motherboard industry, the IMPACT series of ASUS ROG motherboard has always been the most high-end choice for the players of the feverish mini console. After the launch of the third generation of the Sharp Dragon and the X570, ROG also updated its motherboard products at the first time, and launched ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT, a top X570 mini board. With the powerful third generation of Sharp Dragon, players can easily create a set of flagship performance level mini hosts.
X570 mini flagship, the strongest luxury board
Asustek ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT mini DTX board uses the space of dual slot video card to place independent audio units
I/O cooling armor has built-in dense fin fins, equipped with dual 60000 hour life mute fans
ROG SO-DIMM2 expansion slot can be installed with dual PCIe 4.0 M.2 solid state disk, and is equipped with thick Shenguang synchronous cooling armor
The back is equipped with super thick full covering metal heat dissipation armor, and built-in high-efficiency heat pipe, whose heat dissipation effect is close to that of the flagship board
To build a flagship mini host, its scalability and performance must not shrink. Therefore, the ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT uses the mini DTX board type. Compared with the mini ITX, the space occupied by the dual slot video card is fully used to place the SupremeFX independent audio module equipped with a Japanese audio dedicated capacitor. In this way, the SO-DIMM2 expansion slot can be reserved in the middle of the motherboard to ensure flagship scalability.
The design of ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT that deserves special praise is the SO-DIMM2 expansion slot, which is also the unique black technology of ROG motherboard. It uses a socket similar to a notebook SO-DIMM to support a specially designed M.2 solid-state hard disk expansion card, ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT can support two PCIe 4.0 × 4 solid state drives. At the same time, this expansion card is also covered with thick Shenguang synchronous cooling armor, which not only provides the top cooling conditions for high-speed solid state drives, but also has first-class lighting visual effects. It is indeed a high-end black technology.
As the flagship mini X570, ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT is also super strong in materials and design. It is equipped with 8+2 phase modular power supply circuit (plus solid pin power supply socket), which can provide a more stable power supply output compared with the traditional double phase power supply, and has faster signal response. With the strong anti-interference ability and excellent heat dissipation ability of the 8-layer PCB board, it supports the third generation of Ruilong flagship overclocking without pressure. Of course, it is the best choice for the powerful mini host!
It is also important to note that ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT is not only equipped with a powerful power supply, but also equipped with a super large cooling armor with dense fins for the power supply circuit, and two ultra quiet 60000 hour long-life fans are built in. The heat dissipation design is perfect. It is not afraid of the harsh heat dissipation conditions of the ITX mini chassis, and it can work stably without pressure. ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT is also equipped with super thick full size heat dissipation backplane armor, and even provides heat pipes inside. This luxury heat dissipation design has surpassed many flagship large plates X570. In a word, in terms of the heat dissipation design of the ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT flagship, it can easily hold the temperature in various ITX cases with small space, and its stability is unparalleled.
The mini ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT does not shrink in performance at all. It also has an exclusive double capacity memory technology. It can use two slots to achieve four slot memory capacity (a single slot can support up to 64GB). At the same time, the memory frequency can support DDR4 4800+， It is the flagship specification. In addition, ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT is also equipped with Intel Wi Fi 6 AX200 wireless network module in the network part, which not only has a transmission speed of up to 2.4Gbps, but also integrates Bluetooth 5.0 to meet the needs of high-end mini host players for wireless connection.
Then let's use it to build a flagship mini host!
