ASUS PRIME B860-PLUS ATX motherboard
The ASUS PRIME B860-PLUS is an ATX motherboard built for Intel Core Ultra processors (2nd generation) on the LGA 1851 socket. It uses a 6-layer PCB with Digi+ VRM digital power control and multiple 80A power supply modules for stable operation. The board supports DDR5 memory and includes a PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot for graphics cards.
Connectivity and DIY features
This board suits builders who want a USB 20Gbps port, a front-panel USB 5Gbps Type-C connection, and 2.5Gb Ethernet on a standard ATX layout. Three M.2 slots provide storage expansion, while the pre-installed I/O backplate and Q-LED troubleshooting lights simplify assembly. Buyers needing Wi-Fi or additional rear USB ports should look elsewhere.
Power delivery specification
The power delivery uses 80A modules in an 8+1+1+1+1 configuration across the VRM, backed by a 6-layer PCB and digital voltage control. This specification determines whether the board can sustain the current draw of your chosen processor under load.

Questions sur cet article
Will my existing PCIe 5.0 x16 graphics card fit the SafeSlot on this board?
Yes, the SafeSlot is a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot reinforced for heavier cards, so any PCIe 5.0 x16 GPU will seat securely.
How can I confirm the 2.5 Gb Ethernet is active after I build the system?
Check the network adapter properties in Windows or run ethtool in Linux; the link speed should read 2.5 Gbps when connected to a 2.5 Gb switch.
Does the box include an M.2 heatsink for the third M.2 slot or must I buy one separately?
The board ships with one M.2 heatsink pre-installed; additional heatsinks for the other two M.2 slots are not included and must be purchased separately.
