Description

Description

The ASUS TUF GAMING B860M-PLUS motherboard combines all the essential elements of the latest Intel® Core™ Ultra processors (Series 2) with game-ready features and proven durability. Built with military-grade components, an upgraded power solution, and an extensive cooling system, this motherboard delivers stable and reliable performance for marathon gaming.

Its features include:

  • Compatible processor: Intel Core Ultra (Series 2)
  • Processor socket system: LGA 1851 (Socket V1)
  • Memory type: DDR5-SDRAM
  • Available memory slots: 4 DIMM
  • Maximum internal memory: 256 GB
  • Supported storage types: HDD & SSD
  • Storage interfaces: M.2, SATA III
  • RAID support: 0, 1, 5, 10
  • Number of supported storage units: 7
  • Ethernet speed: 2.5 Gigabit

The TUF GAMING motherboard undergoes rigorous endurance testing to ensure it can withstand conditions where others might fail, providing the necessary power and connectivity required by advanced AI PC applications.

Premium Power Design

Stable power delivery is critical for maximizing the full performance of Intel processors. The motherboard is designed to meet the needs of processors with a high core count. It features 12(80A) + 1(80A) + 2(80A) + 1(80A) power phases, which incorporate high-side and low-side MOSFETs as well as drivers, in packages that support up to 80A each. This configuration ensures optimal power supply, efficiency, stability, and performance for both current and future Intel processors.

AEMP III for Ultimate DDR5 Performance

ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that allows users to achieve unparalleled memory performance using advanced CUDIMM memory. Through a two-phase tuning process, AEMP III first optimizes the clock driver and then the memory frequency. This results in the best balance between performance and stability, even at top speeds of DDR5-7600 or higher.

Larger VRM Heatsinks

The extended surface of this heatsink covers the MOSFETs and chokes to improve thermal performance.

PCIe 5.0 for graphics cards

PCIe 5.0 offers double the data transfer speed compared to PCIe 4.0, making it powerful enough to handle new, data-intensive tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other advantages, such as electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connections for add-on cards, and full compatibility with previous versions of the PCIe bus.

Front USB 10Gbps Type-C

This motherboard features a front panel USB 10Gbps Type-C® port for ultra-fast data transfers up to 10Gbps.
