ASUS TUF GAMING B650EM-PLUS WIFI & Ryzen 9 9950X AMD motherboard CPU combo

SKU CH-ABR2-AA7WB

AM5 combo pairs a 16-core 5.7 GHz Ryzen 9 9950X with a B650 board offering 12+2 power stages, PCIe 5.0 M.2, USB4, WiFi 6E and 2.5 Gb Ethernet

  • CPU socketAM5
  • 16-core Zen 5 CPU hits 5.7 GHz max boost for heavy workloads
  • 12+2 teamed power stages with ProCool sockets deliver stable voltage to the processor
  • PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot enables fastest storage speeds for games and apps
  • WiFi 6E and 2.5 Gb Ethernet provide low-latency wired and wireless networking
  • Two-way AI noise cancellation clears microphone and output audio for calls

Ready for AMD Ryzen 9000 8000 7000 Series

This combo pairs an ASUS TUF GAMING B650EM-PLUS WIFI motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X processor. The board uses the AM5 socket and supports DDR5 memory. The CPU delivers 16 cores and 32 threads based on the Zen 5 architecture with a 5.7 GHz max boost clock. It is aimed at builders who want a high-end platform for gaming and heavy multitasking.

BIOS FlashBack simplifies updates for newer CPUs

The motherboard includes BIOS FlashBack, allowing UEFI updates without a CPU installed. This is useful because a BIOS update may be required when using Ryzen 9000 or 8000 series processors. The 12+2 teamed power stages with 8+4 ProCool sockets, alloy chokes and durable capacitors are designed for stable power delivery. Comprehensive cooling uses enlarged VRM and PCH heatsinks plus M.2 heatsinks.

PCIe 5.0 M.2 and USB4 define the speed ceiling

The platform provides an M.2 slot with PCIe 5.0 for high-speed storage and USB4 support for external devices. Wireless connectivity uses WiFi 6E while wired networking uses Realtek 2.5 Gb Ethernet with TUF LANGuard. Two-way AI Noise Cancelation reduces background noise from microphone and audio output. Aura Sync RGB offers addressable headers and strip header support.
