Product Overview

ASUS ROG STRIX B860-A GAMING Wi-Fi

With NPU support and AI-enhanced solutions, the ROG STRIX B860-A Gaming WiFi is ready for advanced AI PC applications. Featuring a USB4 (20Gbps) port, PCIe 5.0, and Aura Sync RGB lighting, it offers fast data transfers, versatile connectivity, and a customisable aesthetic to match your style.


ASUS AI Intelligence

ASUS AI Advisor
Using AI technology to understand natural-language questions or scenario descriptions, ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.

AI Networking II
AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of Wi-Fi 7.


Overclocking Capabilities

NPU Boost
The integrated NPU in Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows — and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%.

Asynchronous Clock
For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Strix B860-A features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, NPU, D2D and NGU. Drive memory, NPU and others performance to their absolute brink while maintaining the stability of CPU clock domains. Separate CPU BCLK from other domains for unfettered overclocking.


Memory Performance

DDR5 Domination
Enhanced signal routing can push enthusiast-grade kits well beyond the 9 GT/s threshold on the Strix B860-A.

AEMP III
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory.

DIMM FIT
DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyses individual memory modules to optimise performance and pinpoint potential issues.


ROG Strix Ultimate Power Design

14+1+2+1 Power Stages
The VRM features 14+1+2+1 power stages, each rated to handle up to 80 amps.

Alloy Chokes and Durable Capacitors
Hi-end chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, enabling performance that exceeds industry standards.

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.


Cooling

M.2 Heatsinks
Heatsinks cover every slot to help keep onboard NVME SSDs at optimal temperatures for consistent performance and reliability.

VRM Heatsink Array
Two thick heatsinks covering the power delivery section provide strategic airflow channels for increased heat dissipation while empowering high-performance Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2).

CPU Fan and AIO Pump Headers
A dedicated pair of PWM/DC fan headers provides easy access to CPU coolers. A dedicated PWM/DC header connects self-contained water-cooling setups.


Leading Connectivity

Wi-Fi 7
The revolutionary Wi-Fi 7 is faster than standard Wi-Fi 6, thanks to tech like 160 MHz channels on the 6GHz band and 4K QAM. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable Wi-Fi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming and industrial IoT.

ASUS Wi-Fi 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.

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.

PCIE 5.0
The Strix B860-A 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.

USB4 (20Gbps) Port
The Strix B860-A comes loaded with one USB4 (20Gbps) port for speedy data transfers up to 20Gbps.


Audio

Dolby Atmos
ROG and Dolby have partnered to bring superior gaming audio quality to users. Dolby Atmos expands on traditional surround sound systems by adding height channels, which enables immersive three-dimensional audio to be perceived from above, below and around the listener.

SupremeFX
ROG SupremeFX is a unique blend of hardware and software technologies that provide superior audio. The Strix B860-A implementation features the ALC1220P codec for high-resolution playback up to 32-bit/192 kHz across all channels. Front-panel output is streamed through the integrated Savitech amplifier that can drive high-fidelity acoustics to a wide variety of speakers and headsets.

Audio Line Shielding
A specially designed circuit separation reduces electromagnetic interference from the motherboard and attached devices for cleaner audio.

Savitech SV3H712 Amplifier
The integrated Hi-Fi Savitech amplifier holds up its end of the signal path with imperceptible levels of distortion at -90dB THD+N and a signal-to-noise ratio of 110dB for extremely clean output.

ALC4080 Codec
Instead of the conventional high definition audio (HDA) interface, the ALC4080 codec uses a USB interface to deliver studio-level sound reaching up to 32-bit 192 kHz audio resolution.

Audio Cover
A metal cover protects against electromagnetic interference, preserving the integrity of audio signals to ensure the best sound quality.

Premium Audio Capacitors
High-quality components produce a warmer, more natural sound with exceptional clarity and fidelity.
