- ASUS AI Advisor - ASUS AI Advisor allows users to explore the functionality and advanced features of ASUS motherboards in a simple and straightforward way.
B850M MAX GAMING 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.
- Digi+ VRM control - The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings.
B850M MAX GAMING 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.5
The B850M MAX GAMING 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.
The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 1.2Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6.6
Numerous USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including two rear USB Type-A ports with transmission speeds of up to 10Gbps and a front USB Type-C® connector with ultrafast USB 5Gbps for transmission speeds of up to 5Gbps.
The latest processors introduce PCIe 5.0 support, doubling data transfer speeds compared to PCIe 4.0, enhancing signal integrity, and providing backward-compatible CEM connectors and support for previous PCIe versions.
The B850M MAX GAMING 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.
The B850M MAX GAMING WIFI motherboard features EZ PC DIY innovations that simplify and speed up the PC building process, making DIY easy and convenient.
- 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.
When only the fastest will do, ASUS motherboards deliver. With faster dual-channel DDR5 memory support, AMD EXPO™ technology and PCIe® 5.0 support for both graphics and NVMe, you can play the most demanding games and deliver your biggest projects with the revolutionary performance of an ASUS motherboard and AMD Ryzen™ 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series processors.
