ASUS ProArt X570-Creator WiFi Review

Conclusion

It is easy to get swept along in the idea of a PC being all about gaming. After all, for the longest time manufacturers would define a high performance system as a gaming one. However, when you stop and think about the best number crunching computers on the planet none of them are designed as a tool for gaming but, instead, are all about rendering frames – be they film or 3D – as quickly and reliably as possible.

There is a certain amount of crossover there too. Look at how popular streaming live has become and the horsepower necessary to not only run your game smoothly but capture and broadcast that footage to thousands or millions at the same time. Similarly if you do LPs of things you’ll need a fast, reliable editing machine to get that done as quickly as possible. Time spent waiting is time lost after all.

The ASUS ProArt X570-Creator WiFi has a whole raft of features designed squarely at the creators in our midsts. It’s all about having high performance storage options and consistent performance. It might not be the motherboard that will see you breaking world records of peak performance, but that isn’t the point. We don’t want a motherboard that can be blisteringly fast for five minutes and then needs a long rest. We – by which we mean creative types – need one that will work relentlessly. An endurance racer rather than a dragster. The ProArt has this covered. The power phases are solid and the heatsink doesn’t soak your system with heat build up. It hits just below 50°C and then stays there all day long without issue.

Connectivity is superb on the ProArt too. Not only do you get WiFi 6E, a rarity on the X570 chipset, but two different LAN types too. Should you have the infrastructure necessary to maximise the 10G port then moving your data around is significantly faster and, thus, you get more productivity. With a Thunderbolt 4 DisplayPort in on the back, and two Type-C connectors, everything about the ASUS ProArt Creator is designed for those of you who generate massive amounts of data and need to quickly move it to where it’s needed.

With a simple aesthetic that is classy without being overblown, plenty of high bandwidth connection options and a robust, reliable level of performance the ASUS ProArt X570-Creator WiFi is the perfect choice for those of you who do more than just frag your enemies and wins our OC3D Performance Award.
