AM5 socket combo for Ryzen 9000 and 7000 series

This bundle pairs an ASUS PRIME B650-PLUS motherboard with a Ryzen 5 9600X processor. The AM5 socket supports current and future desktop CPUs from the 7000, 8000 and 9000 series. Four DDR5 slots accept up to 256 GB of memory in dual-channel mode. The board targets builders who want a single purchase for a modern platform foundation.

PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot and 2.5 Gbps LAN set the speed

The primary M.2 socket runs at PCIe 5.0 x4, while the second operates at PCIe 4.0 x4. Both accept 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 modules. Four SATA 6 Gbps ports provide additional storage lanes. Network traffic is handled by a Realtek 2.5 Gbps Ethernet controller. USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C and USB4 support round out the high-speed external interfaces.

VRM, M.2 and PCH heatsinks with hybrid fan headers

A VRM heatsink, dedicated M.2 heatsink and PCH heatsink manage thermals without active cooling on the board itself. Hybrid fan headers and Fan Xpert 2+ allow precise curve control for case airflow. Addressable Gen 2 RGB headers and a standard Aura RGB header support synchronised lighting. BIOS FlashBack updates the firmware via a USB stick without a CPU or memory installed.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the motherboard with the Ryzen 5 9600X or buy the board alone?

This listing is a fixed combo that includes the ASUS PRIME B650-PLUS motherboard and the Ryzen 5 9600X processor together.

What does the 6400+(OC) DDR5 figure mean once the system is built?

It shows the highest overclocked memory speed the board can reach with EXPO modules; actual speed depends on the CPU memory controller and the specific kit installed.

What does the PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot cap in practice?

The primary M.2 slot runs at PCIe 5.0 x4 from the Ryzen 7000/9000 CPU, so a PCIe 5.0 drive can reach its full rated throughput there.
