Description

ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-E GAMING WIFI AMD Ryzen DDR5 ATX Motherboard - Socket AM5

Take your build from B-tier to S with the Strix B650E-E! PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 propel your rig into the future, and innovative Q-Design features make system setup a breeze. All of its perks are backed by a tenacious power solution, hefty heatsinks, and exclusive overclocking technologies to drive you to the next level with Ryzen 7000.

PCIE 5.0
Fully embracing the new standard, the Strix B650E-E offers abundant PCIe 5.0 support to give unfettered bandwidth to the fastest SSDs and graphics cards available. Both of the x16 expansion slots are Gen 5-ready, and are protected with SafeSlot retention brackets. Two of the onboard M.2 slots are geared for blistering 16 GB/s read and write speeds courtesy of their PCIe 5.0 interfaces, while the accompanying 4.0 pair deliver still-impressive 8 GB/s transfers. And all of the M.2 slots are covered with substantial heatsinks to dispatch the heat of next-gen drives.

DDR5 STRENGTH
For those who want to fly past stock DDR5 speeds, the ROG Strix B650E-E is primed and ready for enthusiast-grade kits courtesy of vast AMD EXtended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO) support. Seasoned veterans can further tweak performance via the extensive array of settings in the UEFI.

WIFI 6E
Onboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of newly available spectrum in the 6 GHz band to provide up to seven 160 MHz channels for ultrafast throughput and better performance in dense wireless environments.
*WiFi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi.

Intel 2.5G Ethernet
Low-latency gaming, speedy file transfers, and high-resolution video streaming are among the many perks of onboard Intel® 2.5 Gbps Ethernet.

SUPREMEFX
ROG SupremeFX is a unique blend of hardware and software technologies that provide superior audio. The Strix B650E-E implementation features the ALC4080 codec for high-resolution playback up to 32-bit/384 kHz across all channels. Front-panel output is streamed through the integrated Savitech amplifier that can drive high-fidelity acoustics to a wide variety of speakers and headsets.

UNDENIABLY ROG STRIX
Bold and elegant, the ROG Strix B650E-E bears a premium aesthetic similar to the Electro Punk peripheral series. Black shrouds cover the SSDs and chipset with contrasting powder-coated and brushed metal textures, and playful pink accents draw the gaze around the board. The I/O shroud is emblazoned with a split image of the ROG eye, the center of which can shine with a splash of customizable RGB.
