Questions about this item

Which DDR5 memory speed does the Ryzen 5 9600X support out of the box?

The processor officially supports DDR5-5600 memory without overclocking.

Can I keep my existing SATA 6 Gbps drives with this B650 motherboard?

Yes, the board provides SATA 6 Gbps ports so current SATA SSDs or hard drives work directly.

How do I confirm the CPU is hitting its 5.4 GHz max boost clock after assembly?

Monitor core frequencies in the BIOS or a hardware utility while running a load; sustained 5.4 GHz on active cores indicates correct boosting.
