Pick up this Asus Prime X670-P WiFi AM5 motherboard for only $135
Get on board the AM5 train.
If you like putting together and building your own computers, then you know that one of the most essential parts of the PC build apart from the CPU and GPU is the motherboard. Today's deal is a modern motherboard from Asus that uses the AM5 (LGA 1718 socket) platform that supports AMD Ryzen 7000-series processors and should support the very latest Ryzen 9000-series processors, although there may be a BIOS update needed for optimal performance and compatibility.
This deal is available at Newegg where the Asus Prime X670-P WiFi motherboard is now $135 - reduced from its original MSRP price of $229. The cost of hopping onto the AM5 train has dropped since its launch with the price of Ryzen processors and DDR5 RAM dropping considerably. With AMD launching Ryzen 9000-series CPUs in the coming weeks and months, this is a great time to hop on board.
Features of the Asus Prime X670-P WiFi include 3 x M.2 slots with heatsinks, large heatsinks on the VRMs, WiFi 6 and included antenna, 2.5Gb Ethernet, support for USB4, and PCIe 5.0.
