Combo ready for advanced AI workloads

This bundle pairs an ASUS TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS WIFI motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 9 9900X processor. The board uses the AMD B850 chipset and AM5 socket to support Ryzen 9000, 8000 and 7000 series CPUs. It targets builders who want a compact mATX platform with strong connectivity and power delivery for demanding applications.

Memory capacity up to 192GB DDR5

Four 288-pin slots accept dual-channel DDR5 up to 8000+ MT/s when overclocked, with EXPO and AEMP profiles for easier tuning. The CPU provides a PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slot for the fastest storage, while the chipset adds two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots and four SATA 6Gb/s ports. A single PCIe 5.0 x16 slot handles graphics, and a PCIe 4.0 x1 slot covers add-in cards.

Upgrades from older AM4 or entry AM5 builds

The 12-core, 24-thread Ryzen 9 9900X reaches 5.6 GHz max boost with 64 MB L3 cache and native DDR5-5600 support. The motherboard supplies 14+2+1 80A DrMOS stages, an 8-layer PCB and dual 8-pin ProCool connectors for stable overclocking. Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5Gbps LAN, rear USB 20Gbps Type-C and front USB 10Gbps Type-C complete the I/O upgrade.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR5 memory kits work with the Ryzen 9 9900X and this B850 board?

The board has four 288-pin DDR5 slots supporting up to 192GB in dual-channel mode, with EXPO and AEMP profiles for speeds up to 8000+ MT/s.

How can I confirm the 14+2+1 80A DrMOS power stages are delivering stable power to the 12-core CPU after assembly?

Use the onboard Q-Dashboard and Q-LED indicators alongside Fan Xpert 4 to monitor VRM temperatures and power-phase activity in real time.

Which M.2 heatsinks and Wi-Fi antenna come pre-installed, and what must I source separately for the three M.2 slots?

A massive M.2 heatsink covers the PCIe 5.0 and one PCIe 4.0 slot; the Q-Antenna for Wi-Fi 6E is included. You only add the M.2 SSDs themselves.
