Enhance CPU Performance
The AMD Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) function increases the power and voltage budget of the CPU to opportunistically boost performance. With aggressive tuning of PBO parameters, AMD's algorithm can leverage the motherboard's robust power solution to enhance performance even further.
Energy efficiency everywhere
The power-saving feature includes various settings that can easily optimize power consumption and maximize energy savings. You can enable a CPU power limit, turn off Aura lighting, and set the fan profile to power-saving mode. You can also enable the power-saving plan built into Microsoft Windows.
Armoury Crate
ASUS's exclusive Armoury Crate brings together easy control of supported gaming products. A single intuitive interface allows you to customize RGB lighting for all compatible devices and link them with Aura Sync for unified lighting. It also offers information and control for a selected and growing hardware ecosystem, with input device settings, Fan Xpert 2+, and Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation. Armoury Crate even features product registration, as well as a news section to stay in touch with the gaming community.
Dram Overclocking Performance
DDR5 OC
The comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of TUF GAMING motherboards. With TUF GAMING B650 motherboards, you can take full advantage of DDR5 modules, whether it’s extreme speed memory kits or entry-level sets that would otherwise be locked.
PCIe 5.0 Support
The TUF GAMING B650 motherboards also feature a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot for enjoying the fastest data transfers of up to 128 Gbps, while all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID configurations to take advantage of the latest available speeds.
