When your computer has the most advanced processor for gamers, you can focus on what really matters: winning in the digital battlefield. Whether you're playing the latest titles or revisiting a classic one, the AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors are a powerhouse for gaming with high-performance "Zen 4" cores. With up to 16 cores, 32 threads, boost clocks of up to 5.7 GHz2, and up to 144 MB of on-chip memory, the AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors deliver game-changing performance.

The ultra-fast storage is at your disposal with one PCIe 5.0 slot and two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, which feature powerful heatsinks to maximize performance. Boost speeds even further, create a mirrored backup, or both. NVMe and SATA RAID configurations (0/1/10) are available through AMD RAIDXpert2.

The top-tier SafeSlot PCIe 4.0 x16 slot supports heavy graphics cards and features Q-Release for easy upgrades.

The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an SSD from an M.2 slot. The design uses a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive, eliminating the need for a traditional screw.

• Power Architecture

12 + 2 power stages each rated at 60A provide ample current to drive AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors through any workload with ease.

• Durable Capacitors

The alloy chokes and durable capacitors are designed to withstand extreme temperatures, allowing performance that exceeds industry standards.

• Six-Layer PCB

The ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive firmware feature for memory modules with PMIC restrictions. AEMP automatically detects the memory chips in your kit and then presents optimized profiles with higher frequency and tighter timings that you can effortlessly apply to unleash performance.

Two VRM heatsinks, one of which extends under the input/output cover, provide ample surface area and mass to meet the power needs of high-performance AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors.

• A dedicated PWM/DC fan header provides easy access to CPU coolers.
• A dedicated PWM/DC header connects standalone water cooling devices.

• The built-in WiFi 6E technology leverages the newly available spectrum in the 6 GHz band to provide up to seven 160 MHz channels for ultra-fast performance and better efficiency in dense wireless environments.
• Low-latency gaming, fast file transfers, and high-resolution video streaming are among the many advantages of the built-in Intel@ 2.5 Gbps Ethernet.

A bold silver and white aesthetic with a touch of RGB lighting offers a build that looks as futuristic as its feature set. The fusion of form and function is depicted by a cut-out I/O shield, which allows additional airflow through the VRM cooling channels underneath. This design also includes M.2 and chipset heatsinks, and the whole look is tied together with gaming-focused decals.

Pair the Strix B650-A with other products from the diverse ROG ecosystem to create a fully customized gaming setup that reflects your personal style.

The ROG Strix B650-A has the same mounting hole alignment as the AM4 platforms, making it compatible with many existing coolers, including all AIO offerings from ASUS and ROG.

GameFirst VI optimizes networking performance by allocating bandwidth in real-time based on application usage scenarios and corresponding learning algorithms.

The ROG Strix B650 motherboards come pre-installed with the DTS Sound Unbound application that surrounds you with sound like never before, creating entirely new levels of immersion for exceptional gaming and entertainment experiences. Leveraging Windows Sonic spatial technology, DTS Sound Unbound delivers sound in a virtual 3D space, placing you right in the middle of the soundscape, where you can feel the position of every gunshot, footstep, and other sounds.
