Asus PRIME B550M-A WIFI II AMD B550 DDR4 Micro ATX Motherboard - Socket AM4

ASUS Prime series is expertly engineered to unleash the full potential of 5000 Series/ 5000 G-Series/ 4000 G-Series/ 3000 Series AMD Ryzen platform. Boasting a robust power design, comprehensive cooling solutions and intelligent tuning options, Prime B550 series motherboards provide daily users and DIY PC builders a range of performance tuning options via intuitive software and firmware features.

Features
- AMD AM4 Socket: Ready for Ryzen™ 5000 Series/ 5000 G-Series/ 4000 G-Series/ 3000 Series Desktop Processors
- Comprehensive Cooling: VRM heatsink, PCH heatsink, hybrid fan headers, and Fan Xpert 2+ utility
- Ultrafast Connectivity: Dual M.2, PCIe 4.0, Wi-Fi 6, 1 Gb Ethernet, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A support
- Aura Sync RGB Lighting: Onboard addressable Gen 2 header and RGB headers for RGB LED strips, easily synced with Aura Sync-capable hardware

PCIe 4.0 M.2 (up to 64 Gbps)
PCIe 4.0 M.2 Slot supports up to 22110 and provide NVMe SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to PCIe 4.0 storage device to enjoy the fastest data-transfer speeds on AMD Ryzen™ 5000 Series/ 3000 Series Processors.

Wi-Fi 6
Wi-Fi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 2.4 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A
Numerous USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including two rear-panel USB Type-A connectors with fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity for compatible cases.
