Performance
Digital Power Design
The B850M MAX GAMING WIFI features an 8+2+1 phase power design with discrete MOSFETs, ensuring efficient and stable power delivery to AMD processors, as well as consistent performance for daily use.

The multi-layered PCB design quickly dissipates heat around the voltage regulators to improve overall system stability and give the CPU more overclocking headroom.

The Digi+ Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) offers real-time control over voltage drop and automatically manages frequency and power efficiency settings.

Enhanced Memory & Storage Performance
Enhanced DDR5 Performance
Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of B650E motherboards. The B850M MAX GAMING WIFI maximizes the potential of your DDR5 modules, from entry-level to extreme-speed kits.3
For entry-level modules without EXPO™ support, ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and offers optimized profiles for improved performance.
For those looking to surpass standard DDR5 speeds, the B850M MAX GAMING WIFI offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support and a wide range of UEFI settings for further performance enhancements.4

Three M.2 Slots (up to 128 Gbps)
The B850M MAX GAMING WIFI features a total of three M.2 slots, including one that supports data transfer speeds of up to 128 Gbps via PCIe 5.0, and two that support PCIe 4.0. This allows for faster boot and load times for operating systems and applications.5

Cooling
Cooler by Design
The B850M MAX GAMING WIFI motherboard is equipped with multiple onboard heatsinks and a range of hybrid fan headers to ensure your system stays cool and stable under heavy loads.

Intelligent Cooling Precision

ASUS Fan Xpert 2+
ASUS Fan Xpert 2+ software provides comprehensive control over fans. Auto-Tuning Mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There's also an extreme quiet mode that reduces fan speeds below the standard minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet during light tasks. Fans can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS.

Cooler Compatibility
ASUS AIO coolers offer robust performance, high overclocking potential, striking aesthetics, and customizable features for new motherboards, allowing you to build your dream gaming rig.7

Flexibility
Stronger Connections
This motherboard offers a versatile array of connectivity, including support for WiFi 6, a PCIe 5.0 slot, and an entire arsenal of USB ports, including Type-C® connectors.

WiFi 6
The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard, boosting theoretical peak bandwidth to an incredible 1.2 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully unleash the network potential of WiFi 6.6

High-Speed Transfers
Numerous USB ports support high-end rigs laden with peripherals, including two rear USB Type-A ports with transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps and a front USB Type-C® connector with ultra-fast USB 5Gbps for transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps.

PCIe 5.0 Slot
The latest processors support PCIe 5.0, which doubles data transfer speed compared to PCIe 4.0, improves signal integrity, and offers backward-compatible CEM connectors as well as support for earlier PCIe versions.
