ASRock B850M Steel Legend DDR5 AM5 microATX Motherboard
The ASRock B850M Steel Legend WiFi is a cutting-edge micro-ATX motherboard that blends precision engineering with performance. Designed for AMD’s AM5 processors, including the 7000, 8000, and 9000 series, it’s a motherboard that doesn’t just perform – it commands attention. The components shimmer under the light, reflecting the raw energy coursing through them. The board is designed to turn every aspect of computing into a fluid, efficient process, making it a prime choice for gamers, content creators, and performance enthusiasts alike.
Steady Streams of Raw Power
Power delivery is where the B850M truly stands out, featuring a 12+2+1 phase configuration that keeps the system running smoothly at all times. Smart Power Stages (SPS) & Dr. MOS ensure that power is distributed precisely where it’s needed, keeping each component stable and responsive. With clean, steady energy flowing to the CPU and other critical parts, the motherboard handles intense workloads without breaking a sweat, all while maintaining the kind of stability that professionals demand.
Ultra-Responsive Data Channels
Memory is handled with equal care, thanks to the 6-layer PCB with 2oz copper, a design choice that enhances conductivity and prevents overheating. DDR5 memory support, coupled with speeds surpassing 8000 MHz when overclocked, makes this board a go-to for those pushing their system to its limits. With XMP and EXPO profiles, you can unlock even more power, ensuring that the system remains sharp and fast, even with multiple applications running in parallel.
Unleashing Blazing-Fast Data Transfer
The PCIe slots on the B850M are primed for high-speed, high-performance components. The Gen5 x1 M.2 slot and Gen4 Hyper M.2 slot ensure rapid storage performance, while the Gen5 x16 PCIe slot, reinforced with steel, secures your graphics card and maximises its potential. Meanwhile, the Gen4 x4 slot adds flexibility, providing further room for expansion without slowing the flow of data.
Precision-Optimised Thermal Control
Cooling takes a front seat in this design. With a dedicated heatsink and multiple fan headers – including PWM, DC, and thermistor connectors – the B850M allows for precise thermal management. The Fan-Tastic-Tuning BIOS interface lets users set custom fan curves with ease, helping maintain cool operating temperatures even when the motherboard is working at full throttle. Components remain crisp and responsive as the motherboard channels airflow to keep everything operating smoothly.
Lightning-Fast Networking
Networking is next-level, with WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 included for lightning-fast wireless speeds and improved range. The 2.5GbE Ethernet port ensures a stable wired connection for data-heavy tasks, providing a flawless online experience whether you’re gaming, streaming, or working. Every packet of data moves with precision, making connectivity as fast as it is reliable.
Immersive, Responsive Soundscapes
The B850M Steel Legend WiFi features Nahimic Audio technology, offering immersive 7.1 surround sound with superior clarity and depth. Powered by a Realtek audio chipset, this motherboard delivers exceptional sound quality, enhancing the gaming and multimedia experience. Whether you're gaming, watching movies, or listening to music, the Nahimic Audio technology ensures a premium audio experience that will meet the demands of audiophiles and gamers alike.
Effortless Customisation and Control
The B850M Steel Legend WiFi also takes customisation seriously. Polychrome RGB lighting is supported, offering vibrant, customisable lighting effects, while SignalRGB syncs your lighting across compatible devices. The EZ BIOS interface provides a straightforward way to manage settings, ensuring the system can be adjusted and tuned to meet your specific needs.
A Plethora of Ports
Connectivity options are extensive on the B850M Steel Legend WiFi, providing numerous ports for all your peripherals and displays. It includes 2 x antenna ports for wireless connections, 1 x HDMI port, 1 x DisplayPort 1.4, and a variety of USB ports, including 1 x USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, 1 x USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C, 2 x USB 3.2 Gen1, and 4 x USB 2.0 ports. Additionally, there is 1 x RJ-45 LAN port for Ethernet connections, 1 x BIOS flashback button for easy recovery, and HD audio jacks for line-in, front speaker, and microphone inputs, ensuring versatile connectivity for any setup.
