隨著 AMD 於 2026 推出 2 款高階 3D V-Cache 處理器，華碩也順勢更新 X870 晶片組主機板產品線。來看看新產品線裡的頂級主機板奠基之作：ROG Crosshair X870E Dark Hero。
設計與規格
Crosshair X870E Dark Hero 外觀融合鏡面、噴砂等不同層次的黑色，搭配切割斜線與圓弧邊角，堆疊出高貴俐落的純黑饗宴。尤其是下方的黑色鏡面金屬 Logo，沉穩低調卻更耀眼。
招牌的 Polymo 燈效推進至第 2 代，透過透射板內側不同方向的刻紋，讓燈光折射出不同型態的圖樣。預設是白光，開機進入系統後可手動調整成不同的 RGB 配色。
VRM 供電陣容升級著重在 CPU 核心，從原本 Crosshair X870E Hero 的 18 相提升至 20 相，每相供電可處理 110A 電流，SoC 也配置 2 相 110A 供電。雜項供電維持 2 相，但電流處理能力從 90A 小幅降至 80%。
每相可處理 45A 的 MicroFine 高滲透率合金電感，以及內含耐高溫固態聚合物的 10K 黑色金屬電容，這輛兩種高階用料特色也保留著。
散熱方面也有大幅進化，最靠近 CPU 的 PCIe 5.0 M.2 插槽首度導入 3D VC 均熱板技術，由底部均熱板的真空腔體結合延伸至上部的熱導管，迅速抽離 SSD 熱量，再透過巨型的鋁金屬塊把熱量發散掉。
剩餘的 1 組 PCIe 5.0 M.2 插槽與 3 組 PCIe 4.0 插槽共用一塊超大散熱片，這塊散熱片也跟上面的 3D VC 均熱板散熱片一樣，都導入 M.2 Q-Release 彈扣式設計，無須工具即可輕鬆拆裝。華碩也針對這些 M.2 插槽底部配備附帶導熱膠條的背面散熱片，讓 M.2 裝置更涼快。
有意思的是，華碩在 CPU 插槽與記憶體插槽之間加入了 AIO Q-Connector，搭配即將上市的 ROG Strix LC IV 系列一體式水冷散熱器，可做到無需額外接線就能驅動水冷幫浦、風扇、RGB 燈飾與特設螢幕，大幅降低水冷裝設的繁雜程度，算是近年 DIY 最友善的設計。
此外，華碩也在 PWM 風扇接點加裝浮雕著 ROG 敗家之眼 Logo 的橡膠保護塞，保護針腳不被撞歪或誤觸短路之餘，也更美觀。
I/O 背板提供 2 組 USB4 40Gbps、9 組 USB 3.2 10Gbps（6 組 USB-A、3 組 USB-C）介面，相當充裕，另有 2 組 USB 3.2 20Gbps 隱身在連接前置面板的內接介面。
其中最引人注目的，就是華碩總算在 ROG Hero 等級主機板種配備 10GbE 有線網路，使用 Realtek RTL8127 晶片，另有 1 組 5GbE 有線網路是 Realtek RTL8126 晶片。
無線網路仍採 MediaTek 聯發科 MT7927 方案，支援 320 Hz 頻寬的 Wi-Fi 7，以及藍牙 5.4 協定，連接天線依舊是方便好裝的 Q-Antenna 接頭。
上機實測
BIOS 升級成全新的黑化介面，右側硬體監控欄位加入圖像化的時脈與溫度指標，帶來更直覺的數據觀感。
效能方面，Crosshair X870E Dark Hero 搭配 AMD 近期推出的高階 CPU，無論單核或多核運行，都能穩定發揮最大效能。
總結
華碩 ROG Crosshair X870E Dark Hero 相較於前代 Crosshair X870E Hero，不僅在外觀、供電、散熱方面都有進化，新導入的 AIO Q-Connector 更有效解決過往一體式水冷散熱器的繁複接線，甚至加入過往 Hero 等級主機板缺少的 10GbE 有線網路。
雖然要價 NT$ 23,990 相當兇猛，但它確實有能力堪稱華碩近年來完成度最高的頂級主機板，適合有大量儲存 I/O 與性能需求的高階 AMD 處理器用戶。
