Description

Four M.2 slots and a network that keeps up

One M.2 slot is PCIe 5.0 and three are PCIe 4.0, so the system, games and projects can each live on their own NVMe SSD. 5 Gigabit Ethernet is five times faster than a standard gigabit port and pays off with a NAS or a fast fibre connection. The 16+2+2 phase VRM is fed through two 8-pin EPS connectors, and EZ-Latch Plus and EZ-Latch Click let you fit cards and M.2 heatsinks without screws.

Who this motherboard is for

Builders of an AM5 PC on the top chipset who need plenty of storage: content creators keeping projects on several drives and gamers who want Wi-Fi 7 and USB4 on hand. Three x16-length slots leave room for add-in cards, and Realtek ALC1220-VB audio with an optical output suits better speakers.
