The ASUS TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI takes all the essential elements of the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors and combines them with gaming-ready features and proven durability. With military-grade components, an upgraded power solution, and a comprehensive cooling system, this motherboard exceeds all expectations and offers rock-solid and 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 rugged black and geometric design elements that reflect the reliability and stability of the TUF GAMING series.

DDR5 OC 6400
Extensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of TUF GAMING motherboards. TUF GAMING B650 motherboards allow you to unlock 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 128Gbps*, and all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest speeds available.

Multiple temperature sources
Each header can be set to monitor and respond to three user-configurable temperature sensors to provide workload-based cooling. All settings can be easily managed with Fan Xpert 4 or via 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.

Intelligent fan protection
A special integrated circuit protects each fan connector from excessive heat and electrical currents.

4-pin PWM/DC fan connector
All onboard fan headers support PWM or DC fan auto-detection.

CPU Performance Boost
AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) cranks the CPU's current and voltage budget to opportunistically boost performance. By aggressively tuning the PBO parameters, AMD's algorithm can take advantage of the motherboard's robust power supply to boost performance even further.

All-round energy efficiency
The power saving feature 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 low-power mode. You can also toggle the power plan built into Microsoft Windows.

Cooler by design
1. Enlarged VRM heatsink
The large surface area of this heatsink covers the VRMs and coils to improve heat dissipation.

2. Optimized M.2 heatsink design
All M.2 slots have their own heatsinks that keep the M.2 SSDs at optimal operating temperatures for consistent performance and reliability.

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 being added regularly, the TUF Gaming Alliance will continue to grow.

SafeSlot Core+ & SafeDIMM
SafeSlot Core+ is a reinforced metal shell that is added to a PCIe slot to firmly install a card. The robust ASUS SafeDIMM shrouds support and protect memory modules on select ASUS motherboards and allow you to insert your modules quickly, precisely and safely.

ESD protection devices
ESD protection devices extend the life of components and prevent damage from electrostatic discharge. They offer protection for air discharges up to +/- 10 kV and contact discharges up to +/- 6 kV, exceeding the relevant industry standards of +/- 6 kV and +/- 4 kV. Surface mount TVS diodes in a dual inline package protect your PC from power surges.

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.

Removable captive screws
Specialized M.2 slot screws reduce the risk of dropping or losing a screw anywhere in your case when removing the M.2 heatsink.

Q LED
With the onboard Q-LED debugging lights, PC builders can quickly determine if key components – CPU, memory, graphics card, drives – are functioning normally during startup.

Wifi 6
The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and boosts the theoretical peak bandwidth to an incredible 1.2 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it's optimized to run more efficiently on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Combine your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully exploit the network potential of WiFi 6.

2.5Gb Ethernet
The integrated 2.5 Gbit Ethernet boosts your LAN connection with a bandwidth improvement of up to 2.5 times. Using your existing LAN cable, you can take advantage of this network upgrade to experience smoother, lag-free gaming, instantly stream high-resolution video, and enjoy faster file transfers.

Two-Way AI Noise Cancellation
This powerful ASUS-exclusive utility uses an extensive deep learning database to reduce microphone background noise* and incoming audio while preserving voices. Disruptive keyboard clicks, mouse clicks, and other ambient noise are removed so you can hear and be heard with perfect clarity while gaming or on the phone.

Realtek 7.1 surround sound
The unique audio codec, developed in close cooperation with Realtek for the TUF GAMING B650 motherboards, offers an unprecedented 108 dB signal-to-noise ratio 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, allowing Aura Sync to automatically adjust lighting effects throughout your system. The new headers also offer full backward compatibility with existing Aura Sync devices.
