Product Overview

ROG STRIX B860-I GAMING WIFI

The ROG Strix B860-I Gaming WiFi is designed to dominate with Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2). Its advanced power design and AI solutions drive top-tier performance, while Thunderbolt™ 4, WiFi 7, and high-speed DDR5 slots offer cutting-edge connectivity. This motherboard delivers the power and speed needed for elite gaming and demanding AI applications.


ASUS AI ADVISOR

ASUS AI Advisor is an ASUS technical expert that's always available to answer your questions. Owners of compatible ASUS motherboards can interact with this AI-powered technology using natural language to learn more about their hardware. For DIY beginners, it can provide easy-to-understand explanations of one-click optimisation features like fan speed tuning, and for seasoned PC-building veterans, it can offer guidance and instructions on the latest features offered by ASUS.


AI NETWORKING II?

Traffic Monitor
Armoury Crate's Traffic Monitor tracks your current WiFi channel usage. Move to a less congested channel by clicking the “Channel Switch” button* for improved network performance.
Fast Check
Armoury Crate's Fast Check empowers users to rapidly detect WiFi signal strength
Direction Finder
Armoury Crate's Direction Finder* helps users detect the optimal antenna orientation for achieving the best WiFi signal strength.
Gamefirst
GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate for an even better user experience. GameFirst optimises networking performance by allocating bandwidth in real time, based on intelligent algorithms designed for various application-customisable usage scenarios and corresponding learning algorithms. The latest update includes dedicated support for NVIDIA® GeForce NOW to ensure the lowest latency possible during intense game streaming cloud gaming sessions. To provide a better user's experience, GameFirst is now integrated into Armoury Crate.


PCIE® SLOT Q-Release Slim

With PCIe® Slot Q-Release Slim, simply tilt the card toward the latching mechanism to automatically unlock it from the PCIe slot. This makes upgrades and maintenance easier than ever before. Users will no longer need to fiddle with a tricky latch or even press a button to release their graphics card from the slot.


M.2 Q-LATCH

The new Q-Latch design allows for tool-free installation or removal of M.2 SSDs with just one press.


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

The on-board Q-LED troubleshooting lights give PC builders a quick indicator to confirm that key components—the CPU, RAM, graphics card, and storage devices—are functioning normally during startup. Builders can use the Q-LED feature to correct power delivery issues affecting their motherboard, and it can also alert them when memory modules have not been properly installed—even before attempting to boot a newly built PC.


PCIE 5.0 - The Latest Generation

The Strix B860-I offers end-to-end PCIe 5.0 support, and the topmost x16 expansion slot is protected with a SafeSlot retention bracket to bear the weight of the latest graphics cards. One onboard M.2 slot is rated for blistering read and write speeds up to 16 GB/s, while the remainder can deliver still-impressive 8 GB/s transfers. And every M.2 slot is covered with substantial heatsinks to dispatch the heat of next-gen drives.


A Robust Power Design

Power Architecture
The VRM features 10+1+2+1 power stages, each rated to handle up to 80 amps
Alloy Chokes & Durable Capacitors
Hi-end chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, enabling performance that exceeds industry standards.
8-PIN PROCOOL Power Connector
A ProCool connector is precision-built to ensure flush contact with PSU power lines. A metal sheath improves heat dissipation and lowers electrical impedance.
Eight-Layer PCB
A 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.


Maximum DDR5 Potential

Enhanced signal routing can push enthusiast-grade kits well beyond the 9 GT/s threshold on the Strix B860-I.


VRM Heatsink Array

The VRM heatsink extends over the rear I/O to maximise surface area and includes a VRM fan for active cooling to deftly handle the power thermals of the latest Intel processors while leaving clearance for large CPU coolers.


High-Conductivity Thermal Pads

High-quality thermal pads are utilized between power stages and heatsinks, helping to improve heat transfer and reduce VRM operating temperatures.


M.2 Heatsinks

Heatsinks cover every slot to help keep onboard NVME SSDs at optimal temperatures for consistent performance and reliability.


Impeccable Networking

WIFI 7
The revolutionary WiFi 7 is up to 4.8X times faster than standard WiFi 6*, thanks to tech like 160 MHz channels** on the 6GHz band and 4K QAM*. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming and industrial IoT.
Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet
Onboard Intel® 2.5Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost, with speeds that are 2.5 times faster than standard Ethernet connections for speedy file transfers, low-latency gaming, and high-res video streaming.


ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna

Dual transceivers support the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands to enable faster throughput, with directional sensitivity to improve signal quality and cover greater distances.?


THUNDERBOLT 4 TYPE-C® PORT

Each port delivers up to 40 Gbps of bidirectional bandwidth for the latest super-speed devices and drives. Both ports can be employed for up to two external 4K displays, and PCIe bandwidth extends to up to 32 Gbps.
