AM5 Micro-ATX Board for Ryzen 7000 and 9000

This Micro-ATX motherboard uses the AMD B650 chipset and AM5 socket to support Ryzen 7000 Series and Ryzen 9000 Series processors. It provides four DDR5 slots for up to 128GB of dual-channel memory with XMP 3.0 and EXPO profiles. A 12+2+1 Dr.MOS power phase design with enlarged heatsink armour delivers stable current for high-core-count CPUs.

PCIe 4.0 and 3.0 Slots with Gen5 and Gen4 M.2

The board offers one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot running at x16 and a second PCIe 4.0 x16 slot running at x4, plus two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots. Storage includes one M.2 socket for PCIe Gen5x4 at 128 Gb/s and a second for PCIe Gen4x4 at 64 Gb/s, both accepting 2260 or 2280 drives. Four SATA 6Gb/s ports and a 2.5Gb LAN port complete the I/O.

Standard Micro-ATX Install With BIOS Check

Installation follows normal Micro-ATX mounting and uses standard 24-pin plus 8-pin CPU power connectors. A BIOS update may be required before a Ryzen 9000 Series processor will post. Builders should verify memory kits against the vendor QVL to avoid training failures at higher DDR5 speeds.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 128 Gb/s M.2 slot or the 64 Gb/s M.2 slot for my fastest NVMe drive?

Use the Blazing M.2 socket (M2_1) for your fastest NVMe drive. It runs at PCIe Gen5 x4 and delivers up to 128 Gb/s. The Hyper M.2 socket (M2_2) is PCIe Gen4 x4 at 64 Gb/s. Both accept 2260 and 2280 form factors.

What does DDR5 6200+(OC) actually give me once the memory is installed?

The board supports DDR5 modules rated up to 6200 MT/s when you enable the EXPO or XMP 3.0 profile in BIOS. You get dual-channel bandwidth at that speed with up to 128 GB total across the four slots.

What PCIe generation does the primary x16 slot use, and what bandwidth does that cap the graphics card at?

The primary PCIe 4.0 x16 slot (PCIE1) runs at full x16 electrical width, giving a graphics card up to 64 GB/s of PCIe 4.0 bandwidth. The second x16-size slot (PCIE4) is wired for x4 speed.
