AI Advisor
ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.
Digital Power Design
PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI features an 8+2+1 phase power design with discrete MOSFETs, ensuring efficient and stable power delivery for AMD processors plus steady performance for day-to-day use.
Six-layer PCB Design
The multi-layered printed circuit board design quickly dissipates heat around the voltage regulators to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.
Power Saving
The Power Saving function contains several settings to easily optimize power consumption and maximize energy savings. You can enable a CPU power limit, darken Aura lighting and set the fan profile to a Power Saving mode. You can also toggle the Power Saver plan that is built into Microsoft Windows.
Digi+ VRM Control
The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings.
Enhanced DDR5 Performance
Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of PRIME motherboards. The PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI maximizes the potential of your DDR5 modules, from entry-level to extreme-speed kits.
For entry-level modules without EXPO™ support, ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and provides optimized profiles for enhanced performance.
For those looking to surpass stock DDR5 speeds, the PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support and a wide array of UEFI settings for further performance tweaks.
Three M.2 Slots (up to 128 Gbps)
PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI offers a total of three M.2 slots, including one that supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128 Gbps via PCIe 5.0, and two that support PCIe 4.0. This enables quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.
Cooler by Design
The PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI motherboard is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to help ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.
AIO pump header: A dedicated PWM/DC header supports self-contained water-cooling setups.
VRM heatsinks and thermal pads: Two massive VRM heatsinks and essential thermal pads improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.
Multiple temperature sources: Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 2+ lets you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.
4-Pin PWM/DC fan: Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.
M.2 heatsink: One Flexible M.2 heatsink that can take care of either of the two M.2 slots, preventing throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during extended transfers.
Passive chipset heatsink: An aluminium passive chipset heatsink ensures optimal cooling and stable performance. It is more durable and longer-lasting than heatsinks with fans, which can be vulnerable to the build up of dust and debris.
Smart protection: A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from overheating and excess current.
ASUS Fan Xpert 2+
ASUS Fan Xpert 2+ software provides comprehensive control over fans. An Auto-Tuning mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There's also an Extreme Quiet mode that reduces chassis fan speeds to below the default minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks. Fans can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS.
Cooler Compatibility
ASUS AIO coolers offer robust performance, high overclocking potential, bold aesthetics and customizable functionality for new motherboards, empowering you to build your dream gaming rig.
Empowering Connections
This motherboard offers a versatile range of connectivity, including support for WiFi 6E, PCIe 5.0 slot and an arsenal of USB ports which includes Type-C® connections.
WiFi 6E
Built-in WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz and. With triple the bandwidth of the 2.4/5/6 GHz band, WiFi 6E delivers ultrafast wireless networking speeds with improved capacity and better performance in dense wireless environments.
Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet
Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet reduces CPU overhead and offers exceptionally high TCP and UDP throughput for faster, smoother data transfers.
USB 10Gbps Type-C®
A batch of USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including a rear USB Type-C® connector with ultrafast USB 10Gbps for transmission speeds of up to 10Gbps.
Personalization
The PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI enhances the user experience across the board, from simplifying BIOS setting adjustments to offering customizable RGB lighting controls for a uniquely personal system aesthetic.
UEFI BIOS
The UEFI interface delivers easy-to-use configuration options for PC beginners, and advanced features for veterans.
ASUS GlideX
Enable seamless screen sharing and control across PCs, tablets, and smartphones via wired or wireless connections, supporting multiple platforms.
ASUS DriverHub
Simplify driver management with automatic detection, one-click installation and update for smooth, efficient system performance.
Armoury Crate
Customize Aura Sync RGB and control ASUS devices. Includes product registration and updates.
Aura Sync
Complete RGB lighting control for enthusiast systems, ensuring seamless synchronization with compatible hardware.
Addressable Gen 2 RGB headers
Three addressable Gen 2 headers detect LED counts on compatible RGB devices, automatically adjusting lighting effects accordingly.
DIY Friendly
The PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI motherboard features EZ PC DIY innovations that simplify and speed up the PC building process, making DIY easy and convenient.
Q-Antenna
With Q-Antenna, attaching a WiFi antenna to your PC is now easy and fast. Instead of slowly rotating two fasteners until they finally lock in, they just snap into place. Less hassle, and more consistent performance.
Q-LED Core
The Q-LED Core display produces color-coded lights during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) that can help you troubleshoot potential issues.
Pre-Mounted I/O Shield
Our pre-installed I/O shield safeguards ports, simplifies the build process, increases functionality and enhances aesthetics for PC DIY enthusiasts.
BIOS FlashBack™
BIOS FlashBack™ simplifies BIOS updates. Just load the BIOS file onto a FAT32 USB stick, insert it into the BIOS FlashBack™ port, and press a button-no CPU or memory needed.
SafeSlot
PCIe 5.0 is twice as fast as PCIe 4.0. ASUS has adapted our SMT manufacturing for the faster SafeSlot, a reinforced metal sheath that ensures secure card installation and faster data speeds.
