The ASUS Prime B650M-A AX II is expertly engineered to unleash the full potential of AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors. Boasting a robust power; comprehensive cooling solutions and intelligent tuning options; Prime B650M-A AX II provides daily users and DIY PC builders a range of performance tuning options via intuitive software and firmware features.
PBO Enhancement
CPU Performance Boost: AMD Precision Boost Overdrive(PBO) pushes the CPU current and voltage budget to opportunistically increase performance. By aggressively tuning the PBO parameters; AMD's algorithm can leverage the motherboard's robust power solution to ramp up performance even higher.
VRM Heatsink and Thermal Pad
VRM heatsink and thermal pads improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.
Six-Layer PCB Design
Multiple PCB layers optimize heat management for critical components; providing more headroom to push CPUs beyond stock speeds.
Cooler by Design
Multiple Temperature Sources: Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Expert 2+ allows you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.
DDR5 Performance Enhancement
Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of PRIME motherboards. With the PRIME B650M-A WIFI II; you can extract all of the potential out of your DDR5 modules; whether they're from an extreme-speed kit or an entry-level set that would otherwise be locked.
For those who want to fly past stock DDR5 speeds; the PRIME B650M-A WIFI II is primed and ready for enthusiast-grade kits courtesy of vast AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support. Seasoned veterans can further tweak performance via the extensive array of settings in the UEFI.
PRIME B650M-A WIFI II offers a total of two M.2 slots; the first one supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128Gbps via PCIe 5.0; enabling quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.
PCIe 5.0 M.2 Support
Front USB Type-C
A full complement of USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals; including a front-panel USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C.
WiFi 6
The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 1.2Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users; it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6.
ASUS OptiMem II
Revisions to the motherboard's trace routing provide the latest processors with unrestricted access to memory bandwidth. ASUS OptiMem II technology carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk.
