TROOPER B85 Platform

The ASUS TROOPER B85 motherboard uses the Intel B85 chipset and an LGA 1150 socket to host 4th generation Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors. It supports Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology for automatic frequency increases under load. The board accepts dual-channel DDR3 memory at 1600 or 1333 MHz up to a total of 16 GB. A Realtek ALC887 codec provides 8-channel audio and a Realtek RTL8111GR controller handles Gigabit LAN.

Expansion Layout

One PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot runs at full x16 mode for a primary graphics card. A second PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot operates at up to x4 mode and is compatible with x1 and x4 add-in cards. Storage connects through four SATA III and two SATA II ports. Front-panel USB 3.0 is available via two internal headers, while the rear I/O supplies two USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 ports. Four additional USB 2.0 headers sit on the board for internal expansion.

Thermals and Power

The ATX form factor measures 30.5 by 18.0 cm, fitting standard chassis layouts. The Intel B85 chipset and LGA 1150 platform draw modest power under typical desktop workloads, keeping system thermals manageable with conventional case airflow. No specialised cooling hardware is required beyond a standard CPU cooler. The board ships with a metal battery and one SATA cable; no original packaging or additional accessories are included.
