model TX GAMING B860M WIFI

+CPU +Ultra 5 245K

  • Ready-to-build combo includes motherboard, CPU and Shin-Etsu thermal grease
  • Intel Ultra 5 245K delivers 125 W performance on 3 nm Arrow Lake architecture
  • B860 mATX board supports DDR5 with AEMP 3.0 for stable memory overclocking
  • PCIe 5.0 x16 slot plus M.2 PCIe 5.0 x4 at 128 Gbps for high-speed expansion
  • Wi-Fi 6E and 2.5 Gb Ethernet with TUF LANGuard provide fast, protected networking

Ready-to-Build Platform

This bundle pairs an ASUS TX GAMING B860M WIFI motherboard with an Intel Ultra 5 245K processor and Shin-Etsu X-23-7868-2D thermal grease. The combination delivers a complete foundation for a new system without sourcing parts separately. Builders receive the CPU, board and paste in one package.

Military-Grade mATX Layout

The motherboard uses military-grade components on an Intel B860 mATX platform with an LGA 1851 socket. A pre-mounted I/O shield and SafeSlot reinforced PCIe 5.0 x16 slot simplify assembly and protect the primary expansion card. Dual-channel DDR5 support with AEMP 3.0 helps memory run at rated speeds. Connectivity includes a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot at 128 Gbps, an additional PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot, Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet with TUF LANGuard, Wi-Fi 6E and an ASUS WiFi Mobile Antenna. Three addressable Gen2 RGB headers sync with Aura Sync lighting.

Pre-Applied Thermal Solution

Shin-Etsu X-23-7868-2D grease ships in the box, removing the need to buy paste separately. Its 6.2 W/m·k conductivity and 0.07 °C·cm²/W resistance transfer heat efficiently from the 125 W processor. Gray colour and 100 Pa·s viscosity make application straightforward. The manufacturer suggests replacement every two years, though the official lifespan reaches three to five years.

Questions about this item

What PCIe standard does the TX GAMING B860M WIFI's top M.2 slot use and what throughput does it cap at?

The primary M.2 slot runs at PCIe 5.0 x4, delivering up to 128Gbps bandwidth for compatible drives.

What socket and form factor must a case support for this motherboard and CPU combination?

The board uses an LGA 1851 socket in an mATX layout, so the case needs an mATX tray with matching mounting holes.

How should the included Shin-Etsu X-23-7868-2D paste be applied to the Ultra 5 245K, and what common step is missed?

Place a small pea-sized dot on the centre of the heatspreader; the step often skipped is cleaning both surfaces with isopropyl alcohol first.
