AM5 combo with B650E chipset and 8-core Zen 5 CPU
This bundle pairs an ASUS B650E MAX GAMING WIFI motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 7 9700X processor. The board uses the AM5 socket and supports DDR5 memory up to 8000 MT/s with a 192 GB maximum capacity. It delivers PCIe 5.0 lanes for both the primary graphics slot and the first M.2 socket.
Suits builders moving to AM5 with Zen 5 CPUs
The 8-core, 16-thread processor reaches a 5.5 GHz max boost clock and is unlocked for overclocking. Integrated graphics provide DisplayPort and HDMI output via the motherboard rear I/O. Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3 and 2.5 Gbps Ethernet handle networking. Four SATA ports and three M.2 slots cover storage.
PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot for fastest SSD performance
The top M.2 socket runs at PCIe 5.0 x4 when a Ryzen 9000 or 7000 series CPU is installed, giving the highest available throughput for a boot drive. The second M.2 slot operates at PCIe 4.0 x4. The 8+2+1 phase VRM, 6-layer PCB and alloy chokes keep power delivery stable under load.

Questions about this item
What DDR5 memory speed and capacity does the B650E MAX GAMING WIFI support for the Ryzen 7 9700X?
The board has four 288-pin DDR5 slots running dual-channel up to 8000+ MT/s overclocked with a maximum capacity of 192 GB and supports unbuffered ECC modules.
Can I keep my PCIe 3.0 x16 expansion cards and SATA drives when using this motherboard?
Two PCIe 3.0 x16 slots run at x1 mode and share bandwidth with two of the four SATA 6 Gb/s ports; using either x16 slot disables its paired SATA port.
How do I confirm the Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 are active after building the system?
Check Device Manager for a Wi-Fi 6E 802.11ax adapter and Bluetooth 5.3 radio, then connect to a 6 GHz network and pair a Bluetooth device to verify both links.
