AM4 micro-ATX motherboard with Ryzen 7 5700X combo

This bundle pairs an ASUS TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS WIFI II board with an eight-core Ryzen 7 5700X processor. The CPU runs at a 3.4 GHz base clock within a 65 W envelope and provides 32 MB of L3 cache. The board uses the AMD B550 chipset and supports 3rd Gen Ryzen processors in the AM4 socket.

Builders upgrading an AM4 system

The platform delivers PCIe 4.0 on the primary x16 slot and first M.2 socket, plus 2.5 Gb Ethernet and WiFi 6 for networking. Four DDR4 slots accept up to 128 GB in dual-channel mode. Buyers who need integrated graphics or a newer socket should select a different platform.

PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slot for high-speed NVMe storage

The primary M.2_1 socket supports 2242, 2260 and 2280 drives at PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds, while the second slot runs at PCIe 3.0 x2. This distinction decides whether the board can feed a modern SSD at full bandwidth.

Questions about this item

How much power does the included Ryzen 7 5700X draw under sustained load?

The processor has a 65W TDP, which is the thermal limit the cooler must handle during continuous all-core workloads.

What are the VRM temperatures like when the board runs all day with an 8-core CPU?

The 8+2 DrMOS power stages are cooled by a fanless heatsink; hybrid fan headers and Fan Xpert 4 let you tune chassis airflow to keep VRM temperatures in check during extended sessions.

Which memory kit do I need to have on hand before this bundle will post?

You must supply DDR4 DIMMs — the board has four 288-pin slots supporting up to 128GB in dual-channel mode, with validated speeds from 2666 up to 4866(OC).
