AMD Ryzen™ 9 7950X 16-Core Processor + ASUS ROG Strix B650-A Gaming Motherboard

Manufacturer's PCIE 5.0 provides blazing fast storage with a PCIe 5.0 and two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, all equipped with robust heatsinks for optimal performance. You can further enhance speeds, create mirrored backups, or both with NVMe and SATA RAID configurations (0/1/10) available through AMD RAIDXpert2. The top PCIe 4.0 x16 SafeSlot supports heavy graphics cards and features QRelease for easy upgrades.

Power Design is boosted by a POWER ARCHITECTURE with 12 + 2 power stages rated to 60A each, ensuring ample current to drive AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors effortlessly through any workload. The use of hi-end chokes and durable capacitors engineered to resist extreme temperatures exceeds industry standards. The six-layer PCBA design dissipates heat around the voltage regulators, enhancing system stability and providing more overclocking headroom for the CPU.

Memory is strengthened with DDR5 support. The Strix B650-A is ready for enthusiast-grade kits with vast AMD EXtended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support. Seasoned overclockers can further tweak performance using the extensive array of settings in the UEFI.

Cooling is optimized with two VRM heatsinks, one expanding underneath the I/O shroud, to efficiently handle the power needs of high-performance AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors. High-quality thermal pads improve heat transfer and reduce VRM operating temperatures.

Networking features onboard WiFi 6E technology, utilizing the 6 GHz band for ultrafast throughput and better performance in dense wireless environments. Additionally, there is Intel 2.5G Ethernet onboard for low-latency gaming, speedy file transfers, and high-resolution video streaming.

Audio is enhanced with ROG SupremeFX, offering superior audio through a unique combination of hardware and software technologies. The Strix B650-A implementation features the ALC4080 codec for high-resolution playback and utilizes an integrated Savitech amplifier for high-fidelity acoustics.

Lastly, this motherboard is ready for the future with support for AMD Ryzen 7000 Series desktop processors based on the AMD "Zen 4" architecture. It boasts 16 cores and 32 processing threads, a max boost of 5.7 GHz, DDR5-5200 support, and a robust power solution with 12 + 2 power stages, high-quality alloy chokes, and durable capacitors. The optimized thermal design includes massive VRM heatsinks with strategically cut airflow channels and high conductivity thermal pads.
