ASUS TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS WIFI7 W AMD motherboard & Ryzen 5 9600X CPU combo

ASUS TUF B850M-PLUS WIFI7 W + Ryzen 5 9600X

This Micro ATX motherboard and CPU combo pairs an ASUS TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS WIFI7 W board with an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X processor. The board uses the AMD B850 chipset and an AM5 socket. It supports DDR5 memory across four 288-pin slots up to 256 GB in dual-channel mode with ECC capability. The power design uses 14+2+1 80A DrMOS stages on an 8-layer white PCB with 8+8 pin ProCool connectors.

Built for AI-ready gaming and compact workstations

The platform targets builders who want WiFi 7, Bluetooth 5.4 and 2.5 Gb Ethernet in a 9.6 x 9.6 inch form factor. One PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, one PCIe 4.0 x1 slot and three M.2 sockets (one PCIe 5.0, two PCIe 4.0) give high-speed storage and GPU options. Rear USB 20 Gbps Type-C and front USB 10 Gbps Type-C headers suit fast peripherals. Users needing more than four SATA ports or a full-size ATX layout should consider other boards.

AM5 socket with 14+2+1 80A DrMOS power stages

This spec defines the combo's ability to handle current and future Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series CPUs. The 80 A stages, alloy chokes and durable capacitors deliver stable voltage for the included Ryzen 5 9600X and higher-core-count upgrades. If your build demands a different socket or a lower phase count, this platform will not fit.
