ASUS Announces New AMD X670E Motherboards at Canadian National Expo
ASUS today announced a new generation of AMD-based motherboards to accompany the ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme and support the latest Ryzen 7000 processors: the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero, the ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi, and the TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi. Introducing the new generation of AMD ROG motherboards: the X670E series. Featuring support for DDR5 memory modules and PCIe 5.0 devices, the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero, ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi, and TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi is equipped with improved bandwidth capabilities, stability, and overall connectivity.
All three boards feature the latest ASUS Q-Design innovations. The ROG Crosshair X670E Hero and ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi includes the PCIe Q-Release button, a feature that lets users release their graphics card from the PCIe slot with one press. In addition, all three featured motherboards will include the single-sided Q-DIMM latching design to ensure ease of installation and allowing memory sticks to hold firmly in place. Lastly, the boards include the M.2 Q-latch, allowing users to secure or loosen an M.2 drive with just their fingertips.
ROG Crosshair X670E Hero
The flagship in the Crosshair X670E lineup, the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero bridges the gap between professional PC builders and everyday gamers, allowing all users to construct a high-performance showcase PC. With its 18+2 teamed power stages rated for 110 A and substantial integrated heatsinks, the X670E Hero delivers stable power at cooler temperatures.
The X670E Hero is equipped for the next generation, featuring a pair of PCIe 5.0x16 slots to support next-gen graphics cards, a PCIe 5.00 M.2 card, and WiFi 6E capability for unhindered wireless networking. ESS ES9218PQ Quad DAC provides pristine audio to the front-panel output.
Dark hues predominate the surface of the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero, providing an intense aesthetic for PC builds. Polymo lighting and a luminous RGB pattern across the integrated I/O shield delivers a microstructural array of light and color.
ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi
The ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi merges the best of form and function into balanced gaming performance. The board features 18+2 teamed power stages rated for 110 A and a large, bundled M.2 heatsink to deliver a stable stream of power and thermal performance to the AMD CPU.
In addition to the PCIe Slot Q-Release button, the ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi also features an integrated power button on the motherboard and spare M.2 thermal pads to ensure optimal pre-testing and future replacements.
Angular accents sweep across the board's heatsinks alongside distinctive ROG iconography, accompanied by an illuminated acrylic display on the integrated I/O shield. 
TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi
The TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi delivers performance in a durable and practical form. The board includes a PCIe Gen 5.0 x 16 slot, four M.2 slots
Featuring a simple, clean aesthetic and badges on the integrated I/O shield, the TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi also includes the latest ASUS Q-Design features, including an intuitive Q-LED agnostic array that gives users a quick glance on the status of their build.

Still no 8TB+ ssd or nvme in sane price even in the far horizons.
Very well designed heatsink around it.
Normally the F Gaming doesn't have WIFI but E Gaming does WTF Asus why change now
The problem is that no manufacture will have the 'courage' to make low coast, very high capacity NVMe (8TB and above) in a PCIe 3 form in order to make it less expensive. Those high capacity will always be the high end PCIe 5/6/7 (and not without a good reason, but it doesn't help my case)
SATA is so low resource, low cost that I don't see it disappear completely in the next 5 years besides maybe the smaller ITX or the very basic/budget boards.
But, as always, I tend to be wrong about stuff all the time :)I`m not sure those adapter are worth buying..
The cheep one maybe able to connect and display that many HDD but to read/write even to 1/2 of them simultaneously will get you into a stand still. No 30$ part will do 16*SATA3 HDDS together and if so I'm buying one right now :)
The good one cost 5-10 time higher and give you 6-8 SATA ports.
Oh and here is a video on some X670E ASUS motherboards.
