The B850M Gaming Plus WiFi 6E delivers comprehensive connectivity and performance optimization for AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 series processors. This white Micro ATX motherboard combines advanced networking, robust power delivery, and intelligent cooling solutions for continuous gaming performance.

Advanced AMD B850 Platform

Built on the AMD B850 chipset with AM5 socket support, this motherboard features a 10+2+1 Duet Rail Power System with P-PAK technology and dual 8-pin CPU power connectors. The 6-layer PCB with 2oz thickened copper ensures stable power delivery for high-performance processors, while Core Boost and Memory Boost technologies maximize system potential.

DDR5 Memory Performance

Four DDR5 DIMM slots support dual-channel configurations up to 8200+ MT/s (OC) with a maximum capacity of 256GB. Memory Boost technology optimizes DDR5 performance, supporting AMD EXPO profiles, CUDIMM, and both overclocked and JEDEC standard speeds for flexible system configurations.

High-Speed Connectivity

WiFi 6E technology provides tri-band wireless connectivity across 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz spectrums with speeds up to 2400Mbps. The integrated 2.5G LAN port delivers premium wired networking performance. MU-MIMO and BSS color technology ensure stable connections, while Bluetooth 5.3 adds versatile device pairing options.

Storage and Expansion

Two M.2 slots include one PCIe 5.0 x4 connector (with Ryzen 9000/7000 series) protected by M.2 Shield Frozr thermal solutions. Four SATA III ports provide additional storage options with RAID 0, 1, and 10 support. The PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots accommodate graphics cards and expansion devices.

Thermal Management

Frozr Guard cooling includes an extended heatsink design with MOSFET thermal pads rated for 7W/mK, additional choke thermal pads, and M.2 Shield Frozr for SSD cooling. Frozr AI Cooling automatically adjusts fan speeds across five headers (1 CPU, 1 Combo, 3 System) to maintain optimal temperatures during extended gaming sessions.

AI-Enhanced Features

MSI's AI Engine optimizes application performance automatically, while AI LAN Manager reduces networking latency. AI Boost overclocks the NPU for enhanced AI workload performance, making this motherboard ready for AI PC applications and demanding computing tasks.

EZ DIY Installation

EZ M.2 Clip II enables tool-free SSD installation, while EZ-Conn Design simplifies front panel connections. The EZ Antenna system attaches without rotation, and the pre-installed I/O shield improves EMI protection while streamlining installation.

Audio and Display

Realtek ALC897 codec delivers 7.1-channel HD audio with Audio Boost technology for immersive sound quality. Integrated graphics support includes HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 outputs for flexible display configurations.

USB Connectivity

Extensive USB support includes one USB 10Gbps Type-C port on both rear and front panels, three rear USB 10Gbps Type-A ports, and multiple USB 5Gbps and USB 2.0 connections for comprehensive peripheral support.
