Combo motherboard and CPU
This bundle pairs an ASUS PRIME B850M-K motherboard with a Ryzen 9 9900X processor. The board uses the AM5 socket and a 6-layer PCB with 8+2+1 power modules. The CPU delivers 12 cores and 24 threads based on Zen 5 architecture with a 5.6 GHz max boost clock.
Suits high-performance builds
Builders who want a ready-matched platform for demanding workloads benefit from the combined DDR5 8400 MT/s overclocking headroom and PCIe 5.0 slot support. Users needing integrated Wi-Fi or a bundled cooler should consider other options as neither is included here.
DDR5 8400 MT/s overclocking ceiling
The motherboard supports memory speeds up to DDR5 8400 MT/s when overclocked, while the processor officially supports DDR5 5600. This gap determines whether your memory kit can run at its rated XMP or EXPO profile without manual tuning.

Questions about this item
Does the box include a CPU cooler for the Ryzen 9 9900X?
The supplier description states the cooler is not included, so a separate AM5-compatible cooler must be purchased.
Which DDR5 speed should I target for the Ryzen 9 9900X on this board?
The CPU officially supports DDR5-5600 while the motherboard can reach DDR5 8400+ MT/s when overclocked; choose a kit rated for 5600 MT/s or higher.
What does the 5.6 GHz max boost mean for everyday workloads?
The 12-core, 24-thread processor can hit 5.6 GHz on lightly threaded tasks, delivering strong single-thread responsiveness while the 64 MB L3 cache helps multi-thread throughput.
