Third-party reviews

What customers like about ASRock X670E Pro RS

  • Excellent value for an X670E chipset motherboard
  • Abundant storage options with five M.2 slots (including one PCIe 5.0)
  • Includes six SATA ports, which is rare for many modern AM5 boards
  • Stable BIOS performance compared to competitors like ASUS or Gigabyte
  • Comprehensive connectivity including 2.5GbE LAN and WiFi 6E
  • Minimalist design with a built-in GPU support bracket

What customers don't like about ASRock X670E Pro RS

  • BIOS/UEFI interface can be clunky and unintuitive to navigate
  • Weak integrated audio (Realtek ALC897) compared to higher-end boards
  • Front USB-C port does not support fast charging
  • The 'Blazing' M.2 slot may share lanes with the primary PCIe slot, potentially reducing GPU bandwidth
  • Included WiFi antenna is reportedly of 'cheap' build quality
  • Occasional long boot times due to periodic DDR5 memory retraining

Verdict

The ASRock X670E Pro RS is an enthusiast-grade ATX motherboard built for AMD AM5 processors, featuring a robust 14+2+1 phase power design with 60A Smart Power Stages and an 8-layer low-loss PCB for enhanced stability. Key technical highlights include support for DDR5 memory up to 7600MHz+(OC), a PCIe 5.0 x16 graphics slot, and a comprehensive storage suite consisting of five M.2 sockets (one PCIe 5.0, three PCIe 4.0, and one PCIe 3.0/SATA) alongside six SATA3 ports. Main pros include its extensive connectivity with Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5G LAN, and a front-panel USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C header, offering high-end X670E features at a more accessible price point. Notable cons include the use of the entry-level Realtek ALC897 audio codec and potential layout inconveniences, such as a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot and SATA ports that may be difficult to access when using large, modern triple-slot graphics cards.
