Network Connections
- The integrated WiFi 6 (802.11ax) supports ultra-fast wireless networking speeds, enhanced capacity, and better performance in dense wireless environments, providing exceptional online gaming experiences. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully leverage the networking capabilities of WiFi 6.
- The antenna features two integrated transmitters and receivers to enable faster transmission speeds and supports both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands.
- The integrated 2.5 Gb Ethernet boosts your wired connection, improving it by up to 2.5 times compared to standard Ethernet connections, for faster file transfers, smoother lag-free gaming, and high-resolution video streaming.
ROG SupremeFX
ROG SupremeFX is a unique combination of hardware and software that provides superior sound. On the ROG Strix B660-A Gaming WiFi D4, SupremeFX features the ALC4080 codec to increase playback resolution from 192 kHz to 384 kHz on all channels. The front panel output is transmitted through a highly integrated Savitech amplifier that is capable of driving a wide variety of gaming headsets and high-fidelity headphones.
The ROG Strix B660-A Gaming WiFi D4 will catch the eye with an impressive silver-white finish that contrasts with a bold Aura RGB logo with glitch-effect lighting. Meanwhile, the parallel stripes and dotted text on the aluminum I/O cover, M.2 and PCH heatsinks tie the whole aesthetic together and emphasize the fundamental elements of ROG Strix for speed, diversity, and performance.
Aura Sync
ROG Strix motherboards offer excellent performance and superior aesthetics to stand out from the competition. They also feature built-in ASUS Aura technology that allows full control of RGB lighting and a variety of presets for both integrated RGB LED lights and third-party lighting strips. Additionally, all lighting can easily be synchronized with other ASUS Aura-capable hardware.
- The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for special tools. The design uses a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and eliminate traditional screws.
- BIOS FlashBack is the simplest and safest way to update the BIOS. Just place the (UEFI) BIOS file on a FAT32-formatted USB stick, plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack port, and press the button. Updates can be performed even without memory or a CPU installed.
- Four integrated LED indicators show the power status and any issues with the CPU, memory, graphics card, or boot device for quick diagnosis.
- The patented ROG I/O shield has a sleek matte black finish and comes pre-mounted, further simplifying the motherboard installation process.
Armoury Crate
Armoury Crate is a software utility designed to provide you with centralized control of supported gaming products, making it easy to set up the appearance and atmosphere of your system. From a single intuitive interface, Armoury Crate helps you customize RGB lighting and effects for compatible devices and sync them with Aura Sync to create a unified lighting system across your setup. Additionally, Armoury Crate's Fan Xpert4 tool provides comprehensive control over fans, water pumps, and all-in-one (AIO) coolers.
