TUF B365M-Plus Gaming LGA 1151

The ASUS TUF B365M-Plus Gaming is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel B365 chipset for LGA 1151 (300 Series) processors. It supports 9th and 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. Four DDR4 slots accept up to 64GB of memory running at 2666, 2400 or 2133 MHz in dual-channel mode.

Build fit and alternatives

This board suits builders who need a compact foundation for a mainstream Intel system with integrated graphics output and a single full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slot. It also provides a second x16 slot wired at x4 plus one x1 slot for add-in cards. Users requiring multiple x16 slots at full bandwidth, Wi-Fi, or support for newer socket types should consider other platforms.

M.2 storage capability

One M.2 Socket 3 with M key accepts 2242, 2260 and 2280 drives operating in either SATA or PCIe 3.0 x4 mode. A second M.2 Socket 3 with M key supports the same form factors in PCIe 3.0 x4 mode only. This arrangement determines which solid-state drives can be installed and at what speed.

Highlights

  • Supports 9th and 8th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron processors via LGA 1151 socket
  • Dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 2666 MHz with four 288-pin slots for 64 GB capacity
  • One PCIe 3.0 x16 slot at x16 mode plus a second at x4 mode for graphics and add-in cards
  • Six SATA 6 Gb/s ports and one M.2 socket 3 with M key for 2242, 2260, 2280 drives in SATA or PCIe 3.0 x4 mode
  • Intel I219-V Gigabit LAN and 8-channel audio for wired networking and surround sound

Questions about this item

How do I install the processor into the LGA 1151 socket without bending pins?

Align the notches on the CPU with the socket keys, lower it gently without force, then close the retention lever until it clicks; the common mistake is pressing down on the chip before the lever is fully latched.

What component will need replacement first to keep the board running reliably?

The M.2 slot supports SATA and PCIe 3.0 x4 drives in 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths; a failed drive is the most likely part to swap later.

Which limit appears first during extended heavy loads?

The single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot runs at x16 while the second x16 slot is wired for x4, so multi-GPU bandwidth caps at x4 on the lower slot.
