ASUS ROG STRIX H370-I GAMING

When Intel announced the 8th generation Core processors last fall, the industry was a bit shocked to see a new platform come out in less than a year after 7th gen Kaby-Lake and Intel 200 series boards.

ASUS ROG STRIX B360-F GAMING

Be wary of how sharp the heatsink edges are; yours truly savaged a finger when removing watercooling on the Z370 iteration. The chipset heatsink is far more basic while Asus chooses the move the M.2 shield to a location between the CPU and primary x16 PCIe slot. It’s low profile enough not to block-off the x1 PCIe slot right next to it, and it will likely get some indirect cooling from the CPU heatsink’s fan.

AMD Ryzen 5 2600

AMD’s Ryzen 5 2600 provides excellent performance in productivity applications and competitive frame rates in games. It’s also an attractive choice for anyone building a PC in a compact case, given a 65W TDP.

ASUS ROG STRIX X370-I Gaming

So even with new CPUs on the way if you are looking to build small form factor you will most likely still need to go X370 initially. So I’m excited both to finally see what Asus has to offer for AM4 ITX and to see how it compares to the Gigabyte AB350N board that I’ve been using all over the office. But I’m also hoping the Strix X370-I Gaming is a solid board that will let me build a crazy second gen Ryzen build when they finally come out as well.
