Enhance CPU Performance
The AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) function increases the power and voltage budget of the CPU to opportunistically boost performance. With aggressive tuning of PBO parameters, AMD's algorithm can leverage the motherboard's robust power solution to enhance performance even further.
Armoury Crate
ASUS's exclusive Armoury Crate brings together easy control of supported gaming products. A single intuitive interface allows you to customize RGB lighting for all compatible devices and link them with Aura Sync for unified lighting. It also offers information and control for a selected and growing hardware ecosystem, with input device settings, Fan Xpert 2+, and Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation. Armoury Crate even features product registration, as well as a news section to stay in touch with the gaming community.
DRAM Overclocking
DDR5 OC 6400
The comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of TUF GAMING motherboards. With TUF GAMING B650 motherboards, you can take full advantage of DDR5 modules, whether it’s extreme speed memory kits or entry-level sets that would otherwise be locked.
PCIe 5.0 M.2
The TUF GAMING B650 motherboards also feature a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot for enjoying the fastest data transfers of up to 128 Gbps, while all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest available speeds.
Cooling
- The extended surface of this heatsink covers the VRM and coils to improve heat dissipation.
- All M.2 slots feature dedicated heatsinks, keeping M.2 SSDs at optimal operating temperatures to ensure consistent performance and reliability.
Connectivity
The TUF-GAMING B650 motherboards reach new heights of performance capabilities with the latest version of PCI Express, while an arsenal of USB ports includes three Type-C connections and Thunderbolt (USB4) further extends compatibility and bandwidth.
Safeslot Core+ and SafeDIMM
SafeSlot Core+ is a reinforced metal casing added to a PCIe slot to keep a card firmly installed. Meanwhile, the robust ASUS SafeDIMM housings support and protect memory modules on selected ASUS motherboards, allowing you to install your modules with speed, precision, and confidence.
M.2 Q-Latch
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 M.2 SSD, thereby eliminating the need for screws.
Q-LED
The integrated Q-LED troubleshooting lights provide computer builders with a quick indication to confirm that the essential components, CPU, RAM, graphics card, storage devices, are functioning normally during startup.
2.5 Gb Ethernet
The built-in 2.5 Gb Ethernet elevates your local network connection to higher levels by improving bandwidth by up to 2.5X. Using the existing LAN cable, you can take advantage of this network upgrade to enjoy smoother lag-free gaming, instant high-resolution video streaming, and faster file transfers.
