Description

Description

The ASRock B650 PG Lightning motherboard is aimed at writers, content creators, and gamers seeking high performance combined with advanced features. It offers support for 12th generation Intel processors (Alder Lake), integrated graphics support (iGPU), and a number of features that make it an ideal choice for use in high-performance systems such as gaming consoles, workstations, or multimedia systems.

Additionally, the ASRock B650 PG Lightning features advanced overclocking and cooling functions, providing extra flexibility for advanced users looking for even more performance from their system.

  • Supports AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors
  • 14+2+1 phase power design, SPS
  • 4 x DDR5 DIMMs, supports up to 6400+(OC)

Support for DDR5 XMP & EXPO

ASRock, which stems from the design concept "built for stable and reliable", does not compromise on any detail. All B650 motherboards are built with an 8-layer PCB design, allowing enthusiasts to enjoy boosting DDR5 memory overclocking performance up to 6400MHz and beyond by enabling pre-tested profiles. Ensure that the memory modules are capable of AMD EXPO/ Intel XMP and overclocking can become so affordable, satisfying, and sweat-free.

Blazing OC Tuner

The Blazing OC Tuner allows the AM5 CPU to switch between OC mode and PBO (Precision Boost Overdrive) mode when the CPU current reaches the limit. Anything above the current threshold will trigger manual OC mode - if it is below the current limit, then it will activate Precision Boost Overdrive mode.

This idea is to combine all-core overclocking and single-core auto boost to achieve the best possible performance of your CPU. There is no need to enter the BIOS for the setup, you can modify all settings in real-time under the operating system.

Fast Ports for Gaming

Polychrome RGB

This motherboard features built-in RGB connections and an addressable RGB connection that allow the motherboard to connect with compatible LED devices, such as strips, CPU fans, coolers, cases, and so on. Users can also synchronize the RGB LED devices to the certified Polychrome RGB Sync accessories to create their own unique lighting effects.

PCIe Gen5 Blazing M.2

The Blazing M.2 hosts the latest PCI Express 5.0 standard for double the bandwidth compared to the previous generation, with an astonishing transfer speed of 128GB/s, it is ready to unleash the full potential of future ultra-fast SSDs.

XXL M.2 Heatsink

The very large M.2 heatsink made of aluminum alloy effectively improves heat dissipation to keep high-speed M.2 SSDs as cool as possible, being able to offer better stability while maintaining top performance.

2.5 Gb/S LAN

The intelligent LAN platform Phantom Gaming 2.5Gb/s is designed for maximum networking performance for the demanding requirements of home networking, content creators, online gamers, and high-quality streaming media. Enhancing networking performance up to 2.5 times the bandwidth compared to standard Gigabit Ethernet, you will enjoy the fastest and uncompromised connectivity experience for gaming, file transfers, and backups.

It automatically detects and accelerates gaming traffic ahead of other network traffic for smoother in-game performance without lag and a competitive edge.

BIOS Flashback

Get the most convenient BIOS flashback with a simple click. Users can easily achieve the latest BIOS support with a USB and a power supply, without requiring a CPU, RAM, or other components.

Pre-installed IO shield

ASRock strives to offer only cutting-edge technology with the most user-friendly design. The pre-installed IO Shield design makes the motherboard fit well into the case with precision to avoid interference and speed up the installation process.

Ability to update the BIOS without requiring a CPU and RAM installed on the motherboard. This advanced feature is intended for experienced users and is useful for supporting newer processors on older motherboards. Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the process, as it may vary between manufacturers.

For example, if you want to install a Ryzen 5000 series processor on a chipset that only supports it after a BIOS upgrade, BIOS Flashback can be used without having an older processor on the motherboard.

    Typically good, but the ethernet would disappear in one out of three startups or wake ups. Regardless of the operating system, it was tested on Windows and Linux with the same problem. In the end, I installed a pci ethernet and found peace of mind.

    I don't like the BIOS environment, it's a bit confusing functionally, and the graphical interface compared to MSI and Gigabyte is inferior. Aside from that, there are no issues with the 7800X3D, and updates are frequent.

    The motherboard is solid. It has its problems, but for the price, I think they are justified.
    Let me start by saying that I am impressed by the number of ports on the rear IO and the possibilities for future upgradability. Then, there is plenty of space for components, meaning that the top PCIe slot can fit a 3-slot card and leave room for the bottom PCIe slot to be used as well. Furthermore, there won't be any issues with poorly printed parts, and both the RAM and CPU fit properly without any grinding, which is common in some budget solutions. Additionally, it is lightning-fast, so it supports RGB through the BIOS, which is definitely a positive aspect for those interested.
    However, on the negative side, the BIOS feels like it came out of 2010. It's old and outdated. But this also creates problems. I tried to make a small change (by changing the XMP profile on the RAM), and the Windows got severely corrupted. It seems like the main drive got corrupted because even the recovery files couldn't function properly. After researching, it appears that this issue is related to the motherboard and the way it communicates information about changes to the rest of the system. It's worth noting that this problem only occurs in Windows 11, so be cautious for now!
    Other than that, I recommend it to someone who doesn't frequently make changes to their system. It's easy and compatible without any issues.

    I don't like the BIOS environment, it's a bit confusing functionally, and the graphical interface compared to MSI and Gigabyte is inferior. Aside from that, there are no issues with the 7800X3D, and updates are frequent.

    The motherboard is solid. It has its problems, but for the price, I think they are justified.
    Let me start by saying that I am impressed by the number of ports on the rear IO and the possibilities for future upgradability. Then, there is plenty of space for components, meaning that the top PCIe slot can fit a 3-slot card and leave room for the bottom PCIe slot to be used as well. Furthermore, there won't be any issues with poorly printed parts, and both the RAM and CPU fit properly without any grinding, which is common in some budget solutions. Additionally, it is lightning-fast, so it supports RGB through the BIOS, which is definitely a positive aspect for those interested.
    However, on the negative side, the BIOS feels like it came out of 2010. It's old and outdated. But this also creates problems. I tried to make a small change (by changing the XMP profile on the RAM), and the Windows got severely corrupted. It seems like the main drive got corrupted because even the recovery files couldn't function properly. After researching, it appears that this issue is related to the motherboard and the way it communicates information about changes to the rest of the system. It's worth noting that this problem only occurs in Windows 11, so be cautious for now!
    Other than that, I recommend it to someone who doesn't frequently make changes to their system. It's easy and compatible without any issues.

    The motherboard like B650 ATX is the most affordable choice and it has everything. You can find M2 gen5, good VRM
