STRONG ABS TOP COVER

A tough, thermoplastic top-plate keeps your build neat and tidy, and adds style that is both unique and understated.

COOLING

CHILLING DESIGN

Effective cooling is extremely important, so the ROG Crosshair VIII Formula offers comprehensive cooling features that enable higher performance at lower temperatures.​

EXPERTLY TOOLED TOTALLY COOLED CROSSCHILL EK III

CrossChill EK III allows you to cool with air and water. The redesigned cooling channels offer wider copper, delivering up to 29.3°C-lower MOSFET temperatures on water, and the standard G1/4" threaded fittings mean CrossChill EK III easily fits existing setups — so you can enjoy efficient, quiet cooling with the minimum effort.

COMPREHENSIVE COOLING ZONE

ROG Crosshair VIII Formula offers the most comprehensive cooling options ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.

HEATSINKS

Heatsinks are extremely essential for motherboards, as they absorb heat from critical areas to ensure components do not stagger due to overheating. With VRM, PCH and M.2 heatsinks, ROG Crosshair VIII Formula makes sure of efficient and stable operation even when pushed hard.

CROSSCHILL EK III

Made and engineered in cooperation with EKWB, the CrossChill EK III hybrid cooling offers air or liquid cooling for up to 29.3˚C temperature reduction to keep the motherboard MOSFETs cool for high overclocks.

M.2 HEATSINK

ROG Crosshair VIII Formula is prepared with a stylish M.2 heatsink that keeps your SSD cool. By efficiently dissipating heat away from the M.2 area, it reduces the possibility of the performance-sapping throttling that can happen when drives become too warm.

ACTIVE PCH HEATSINK

With double the bandwidth via PCIe 4.0, the X570 platform poses better thermal challenge than its X470 predecessor. The PCH heatsink has a dedicated fan to effectively combat temperature-induced throttling that can slow performance during sustained transfer.

BOOSTED PERFORMANCE

ROG Crosshair VIII Formula comes prepared with an optimized power-design layout to handle the prodigious power of the latest AMD Ryzen processors without throttling.​

POWER DESIGN THAT BUCKS TRENDS

The monstrous compute power of multi-core processors necessitates a power circuit that quickly responds to massive current swings. Offering an array of 16 strategically paired power stages, the Formula's VRM is geared for any workload and all operating conditions.

Robust power delivery begins at the component level. All aspect of the ROG Crosshair VIII Formula's VRM is generously over-specified for the task.

8-PIN PROCOOL II POWER CONNECTORS

ProCool II connectors make sure of a snug and reliable connection to the EPS 12V power lines.

POWIRSTAGE® MOSFETS

The VRM is comprised of 16 IR3555 PowIRstages, each rated to handle 60 amps.

MICROFINE ALLOY CHOKES

All PowIRstage is accompanied by a high-permeability alloy-core choke rated to handle 45 amps.
