The ASUS TUF GAMING B650E-PLUS WIFI motherboard is built to deliver durability, performance, and next-gen connectivity for gaming and high-performance computing. Optimized for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series desktop processors on the AM5 socket, it combines robust power delivery with intelligent cooling to meet the demands of modern applications and gaming.

A 12+2+1 80A DrMOS power stage design, 8-layer PCB, dual 8-pin ProCool power connectors, alloy chokes, and durable capacitors ensure stable and efficient power for multi-core processors. Memory support extends to DDR5 for faster speeds and improved bandwidth.

For storage, the board offers one PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot and two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, each equipped with heatsinks to maximize performance and reliability. Expansion is powered by a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot for high-performance GPUs.

Connectivity is fast and versatile, with Wi-Fi 6E, Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet, rear USB 20Gbps Type-C, front USB 10Gbps Type-C, and support for Thunderbolt (USB4) via a header.

Thermal management is handled by enlarged VRM heatsinks, three M.2 heatsinks, a PCH heatsink, hybrid fan headers, and AI-based control through Fan Xpert 4.

DIY-friendly features such as PCIe Slot Q-Release, M.2 Q-Latch, Q-Antenna, Q-Dashboard, Q-LED, BIOS FlashBack, and a pre-mounted I/O shield simplify installation and system building.

Customization is supported with three Addressable RGB Gen 2 headers, fully configurable through Aura Sync lighting. Bundled software such as TurboV EVO, DriverHub, TUF Protection, and DTS Audio Processing enhance system control, stability, and audio experience.
