Expert Features

• Ryzen AM5 Compatibility : Built for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series desktop processors, giving builders a flexible AM5 platform for gaming, creation, and high-performance productivity.
• 14 + 2 + 1 Power Stages : The premium power solution combines 14 Vcore, 2 SoC, and 1 miscellaneous DrMOS stage, with every stage rated for up to 80A—proper power delivery, not decorative VRM wallpaper.
• Heavy-Duty Power Hardware : Dual 8-pin ProCool CPU connectors, TUF chokes, Digi+ VRM control, and TUF 5K black metallic capacitors reinforce stability during demanding multicore workloads and tuned gaming builds.
• DDR5 Up To 8000+ MT/s OC : Four DIMM slots support up to 256GB DDR5 with dual-channel operation, AMD EXPO, ASUS AEMP, and compatibility with ECC or non-ECC unbuffered memory.
• PCIe 5.0 Graphics Support : Ryzen 9000 and 7000 processors unlock PCIe 5.0 x16 operation, while Ryzen 8000 processors operate the primary slot through PCIe 4.0 at x8 or x4 depending on the CPU.
• Three-M.2 Storage Layout : The board supports three NVMe M.2 drives, including one PCIe 5.0 x4 position with compatible Ryzen 9000 or 7000 processors, plus two PCIe 4.0 positions.
• Four SATA Ports : Four SATA 6Gbps connectors keep the board friendly to high-capacity hard drives, 2.5-inch SATA SSDs, and storage-heavy gaming or office builds.
• WiFi 7 Connectivity : The MediaTek MT7925 wireless module supports 2×2 WiFi 7 across 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands with up to 160MHz channel bandwidth, alongside Bluetooth 5.4.
• Important WiFi Compatibility Note : Full WiFi 7 functionality requires Windows 11 version 24H2 or later. Earlier Windows 11 versions operate at WiFi 6E capability, while ASUS lists no Windows 10 driver for the wireless module.
• 2.5Gb Ethernet : Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet with TUF LANGuard delivers faster wired networking and added protection against electrical surges and static discharge.
• USB-C 20Gbps Speed : A rear USB-C 20Gbps port handles high-speed external SSDs and modern peripherals, while the front USB-C connector supports data transfer at up to 10Gbps.
• ALC1220P Gaming Audio : The Realtek ALC1220P codec supports 7.1-channel audio, 120dB playback SNR, 113dB recording SNR, impedance sensing, premium capacitors, dedicated PCB layers, and DTS Audio Processing.
• Comprehensive Cooling Control : Enlarged VRM heatsinks, M.2 heatsinks, a chipset heatsink, CPU and CPU-optional fan headers, an AIO pump header, and three chassis-fan headers help control thermals across the full build.
• Tool-Free Builder Features : PCIe Slot Q-Release, M.2 Q-Latch, Q-Antenna, Q-DIMM, Q-Dashboard, Q-LED, BIOS FlashBack, Clear CMOS, and a pre-mounted I/O shield reduce installation and troubleshooting drama.
• TUF Protection Package : SafeSlot, SafeDIMM, ESD Guards, overvoltage protection, stainless-steel rear I/O, and an eight-layer PCB strengthen the board for long gaming sessions and repeated hardware upgrades.
• AI Cache Boost : With a compatible Ryzen 9000 Series processor, AI Cache Boost optimizes CPU cache and memory pathways for supported local AI and large-language-model workloads.
