A light-themed Strix AM5 board with two PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots, twelve rear USB ports and Wi-Fi 7.
Quick Specs
- AMD X870 chipset, Socket AM5 for Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000
- 4 x DDR5 DIMM, up to 256GB, up to 8000+ MT/s (OC)
- 1 x PCIe 5.0 x16, 4 x M.2 (two PCIe 5.0 x4)
- Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet
- 2 x USB4 40Gbps, 12 rear USB ports in total
A well-equipped gaming board for Ryzen 9000
The Strix X870-A Gaming WiFi is aimed at a Ryzen 7 9800X3D or Ryzen 9 gaming build, and its lighter A-series styling suits white or silver builds. You get a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, two PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slots from the CPU and two more PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots from the chipset. The rear panel is generous: two USB4 ports with DisplayPort Alt Mode, a USB-C with 30W PD charging, and twelve USB ports in all. SupremeFX ALC4080 audio with a Savitech amplifier is a step above the Prime and TUF boards.
Lane sharing and other trade-offs
Read the storage notes before you plan four NVMe drives. Populating M.2_2 drops the main graphics slot from x16 to x8, and using M.2_3 disables the second x16 slot. For most current graphics cards PCIe 5.0 x8 is fine, but it is worth knowing. There are only two SATA ports, so it is not for a board full of hard drives, and Ryzen 8000 APUs lose M.2_2 altogether. The Wi-Fi 7 module runs at 160MHz rather than 320MHz and needs Windows 11.

- Two PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slots plus a PCIe 5.0 x16 graphics slot

Questions
Before you buy
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
