PC DIY hounds building a gaming PC around AMD's Ryzen 7 CPUs will dig this board. It sports the X370 chipset for multi-video-card goodness, and it has slick lighting. Read More...
So here it is, the newest in a long line of ASUS motherboards to carry the Crosshair name and I can say it's a well deserved title. The board is packed with all the features you would expect from the ROG series and lends itself readily to the gaming and h...

Abstract: It's Thursday, so that means on many parts of the internet it is "throwback Thursday". Now, because we're nerdy spods here at OC3D Towers we don't think that any of you would be interested in seeing what we looked like back in our youth, but we did think...
I mentioned it in the opening section but it is worth revisiting again. For a lot of people, the Crosshair boards have a little history. Not only were they the first ROG board ever made, but for some people, they are the first AMD boards people used...
