ASUS TUF GAMING B650-PLUS AMD B650 Socket AM5 ATX

The ASUS TUF GAMING B650-PLUS takes all the essential elements of the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors and combines them with game-ready features and proven durability. Featuring military-grade components, an upgraded power solution, and a comprehensive cooling system, this motherboard exceeds expectations and provides rock-solid, stable performance for gaming marathons. TUF GAMING motherboards are also subjected to rigorous endurance testing to ensure they can withstand conditions where others might fail. Aesthetically, this model features robust, black and geometric design elements that reflect the reliability and stability of the TUF GAMING series.

DDR5 OC 6400
Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of TUF GAMING motherboards. With TUF GAMING B650 motherboards, you can unleash the full potential of your DDR5 modules, whether they come from an extreme-speed kit or an entry-level set that would otherwise be locked.

PCIe 5.0 Support
TUF GAMING B650 motherboards also feature a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot for the fastest data transfers of up to 128 Gbps* and all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest available speeds.

Cooler by Design

1. Enlarged VRM Heatsink
The large surface area of this heatsink covers the VRMs and chokes to improve heat dissipation.

2. Optimized M.2 Heatsink Design
All M.2 slots feature dedicated heatsinks, keeping M.2 SSDs at optimal operating temperatures for consistent performance and reliability.

Multiple Temperature Sources
Each header can be set to monitor and react to three user-configurable thermal sensors for workload-dependent cooling. All settings can be easily managed with Fan Xpert 4 or via the UEFI.

AIO Water Cooling
An integrated AiO system allows full control of PWM or DC water pumps, making it perfect for custom or standalone cooling systems.

Smart Fan Protection
A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from excessive heat and electrical currents.

4-Pin PWM/DC Fan Header
All onboard fan headers support automatic detection of PWM or DC fans.

CPU Performance Boost
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) pushes the CPU's power and voltage budget higher to opportunistically boost performance. By aggressively tuning PBO parameters, AMD's algorithm can leverage the motherboard's robust power delivery to further increase performance.

All-round Power Efficiency
The power saving function includes various settings to optimize power consumption and maximize energy savings. You can enable a CPU power limit, dim the Aura lighting, and set the fan profile to a power-saving mode. You can also toggle the power plan integrated into Microsoft Windows.

TUF Gaming Alliance
TUF GAMING Alliance is a collaboration between ASUS and trusted PC component brands to ensure compatibility across a wide range of parts such as PC cases, power supplies, CPU coolers, memory kits, and more. With new partnerships and components added regularly, the TUF Gaming Alliance will continue to grow stronger.

SafeSlot Core+ & SafeDIMM
SafeSlot Core+ is a reinforced metal sheath added to a PCIe slot to securely install a card. The robust ASUS SafeDIMM sheaths support and protect memory modules on selected ASUS motherboards, allowing you to insert your modules quickly, precisely, and safely.

ESD Guards
ESD guards extend the lifespan of components and prevent damage from electrostatic discharge. They provide protection for air discharges up to +/- 10 kV and contact discharges up to +/- 6 kV, exceeding corresponding industry standards of +/- 6 kV and +/- 4 kV. Surface-mounted TVS diodes in a dual in-line package protect your PC from voltage spikes.

M.2 Q-Latch
The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without special tools. The design uses a simple locking mechanism to secure the M.2 SSD, eliminating the need for screws.

Captive Screws
Specialized M.2 slot screws reduce the risk of dropping or losing a screw somewhere in your case when removing the M.2 heatsink.

Q-LED
The integrated Q-LED troubleshooting lights allow PC builders to quickly determine if key components — CPU, RAM, graphics card, drives — are functioning normally during startup.

2.5 Gb Ethernet
Integrated 2.5 Gb Ethernet supercharges your LAN connection with up to a 2.5X improvement over standard Ethernet. Using your existing LAN cable, you can take advantage of this network upgrade to experience smoother, lag-free gaming, stream high-resolution videos instantly, and enjoy faster file transfers.

Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation
This powerful, ASUS-exclusive utility leverages an extensive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone* and incoming audio signals while preserving voices. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks, and other ambient noises are removed so you can hear and be heard with perfect clarity during gaming or calls.

Realtek 7.1 Surround Sound
The unique audio codec, designed in close collaboration with Realtek for TUF GAMING B650 motherboards, delivers an unprecedented 108 dB signal-to-noise ratio for the stereo line-out and a 103 dB SNR for the line-in, enabling pristine audio quality.

Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header
Three addressable Gen 2 RGB headers support up to 500 LEDs on Gen 2 RGB devices, allowing Aura Sync to automatically adapt lighting effects across your entire system. The new headers also offer full backward compatibility with existing Aura Sync devices.
