Asus TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS (90MB1IX0-M0EAY0)

A full-sized ATX motherboard from Asus based on AMD B850 chipset with an AM5 processor socket, providing compatibility with the latest Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 series chips, built on Zen 4 and Zen 5 architecture. The model is part of The Ultimate Force 2025 series and belongs to the mid-price segment, aimed at gamers who value reliability, stability, and a high-quality cooling system.

Its functionality closely matches that of flagship motherboards from previous generations. The foundation of the board consists of an enhanced 17-phase power subsystem, whose technical capabilities are perfectly suited for installing even the most powerful processors like the Ryzen 9 7900X or Ryzen 9 9900. The functional capabilities of the board are governed by the mid-range system logic on the B850M chipset.

This chipset is equipped with a PCIe 5.0 interface, which is actively used in modern graphics cards and SSD drives, and also supports working with DDR5 RAM with an operating frequency of 8000 MHz and above. All slots are equipped with separate heat sinks for effective heat dissipation from drives under high load conditions. In the 4 DIMM slots, you can install an astonishing 192 GB of RAM, which is truly needed by only a few users.

The network capabilities are presented by a Realtek RTL8125 gigabit Ethernet controller with a bandwidth of 2.5 Gbps, while the audio is managed by the reliable Realtek ALC1220P audio codec. The audio zone is physically isolated from the rest of the board, minimizing possible interference. Additionally, a contact group for connecting external Thunderbolt/USB4 boards is provided, allowing the board to remain relevant even in advanced builds with modern accessories and peripherals.
