AM5 Mini-ITX combo for high-core workloads

This bundle pairs the ROG Strix B850-I Gaming WiFi motherboard with the Ryzen 9 9950X processor. The board uses the AMD B850 chipset on a Mini-ITX form factor with an AM5 socket. The CPU delivers 16 cores and 32 threads based on Zen 5 architecture with a 5.7 GHz max boost and 64 MB L3 cache. It targets builders who need maximum multi-threaded performance in a compact chassis.

AI tuning and DIY aids simplify assembly

ASUS AI Advisor, AI Overclocking, AI Networking II and AEMP automate frequency, memory and network optimisation. The board includes PCIe Slot Q-Release Slim, M.2 Q-Slide, M.2 Q-Latch, Q-Antenna, Q-Dashboard, Q-LED, BIOS FlashBack, Clear CMOS and FlexKey buttons plus a pre-mounted I/O shield. These features reduce build friction and make post-build adjustments straightforward.

10+2+1 power stages rated to 70 A per stage

The VRM uses a 10+2+1 phase design with ProCool connectors, each stage rated for up to 70 A. This headroom supports the 9950X at stock or overclocked settings without thermal throttling. If your workload demands sustained all-core frequencies, this power delivery is the specification that determines stability.
