ASUS TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS AMD B650 Socket AM5 Micro ATX

The ASUS TUF GAMING B650M-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 with rock-solid and stable performance for marathon gaming. TUF GAMING motherboards also undergo stringent hardening tests 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 unlock the full potential of your DDR5 modules, whether they're 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 their own heatsinks, which keep M.2 SSDs at optimal operating temperatures, ensuring 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 for 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 solution to achieve even greater performance.

All-round Energy Efficiency
The power saving function includes various settings that allow you 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
The TUF GAMING Alliance is a collaboration between ASUS and trusted PC component brands to ensure compatibility of a wide range of parts such as PC cases, power supplies, CPU coolers, memory kits, and more. With new partnerships and components regularly added, the TUF Gaming Alliance will become even stronger.

SafeSlot Core+ & SafeDIMM
SafeSlot Core+ is a reinforced metal sheath added to a PCIe slot to firmly 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 securely.

ESD Guards
ESD Guards extend the lifespan of components and prevent damage from electrostatic discharge. They provide protection for air discharge up to +/- 10 kV and contact discharge up to +/- 6 kV, exceeding the 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.

Detachable 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
With integrated Q-LED troubleshooting lights, PC builders can 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 bandwidth improvement. Using your existing LAN cable, you can take advantage of this network upgrade to experience smoother, lag-free gaming, instantly stream high-resolution videos, and enjoy faster file transfers.

Two-Way AI Noise Cancellation
This powerful, ASUS-exclusive utility uses 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 environmental noises are removed, allowing you to hear and be heard with perfect clarity during gaming or phone calls.

Realtek 7.1 Surround Sound
The unique audio codec, developed in close cooperation with Realtek for the TUF GAMING B650 motherboards, offers an unprecedented signal-to-noise ratio of 108 dB for the stereo line-out and an SNR of 103 dB 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 and allow Aura Sync to automatically adjust lighting effects throughout your system. The new headers also offer full backward compatibility with existing Aura Sync devices.
