Extensive control
options are at the core of the ASUS PRIME series. The PRIME B650
motherboard includes versatile tools that let you fine-tune every part
of your system, allowing you to adjust performance settings to suit
your workflow and boost productivity.
CPU Performance
Boost
AMD Precision Boost
Overdrive (PBO) increases CPU current and voltage limits to enhance
overall performance. With aggressive tuning of PBO settings, AMDs
algorithm utilises the motherboards strong power delivery to push
performance further.
Performance
The PRIME B650 series
is designed to support the high core counts and bandwidth
requirements of AMD processors. ASUS B650 motherboards deliver
essential features to enhance everyday productivity, offering stable
power, efficient cooling, and versatile data transfer capabilities
to keep your system ready for any task.
ProCool
Connectors
Specialised connectors
strengthen the motherboards connection to the power supply with
8-pin connectors delivering 12 volts directly to the processors.
These connectors use solid pins that support higher current flow
compared to hollow-pin designs.
AURA SYNCA
well-tuned enthusiast
system deserves a matching aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB
lighting control with a variety of functional presets for the built-in
RGB LEDs as well as strips and devices connected to the onboard RGB
headers and it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of
Aura-capable hardware
Temperature
Sources
Each header can
dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 2+ allows you
to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimise
cooling for GPU and CPU intensive tasks.
M.2 Heatsink
The M.2 heatsink is
flexible, which can take care of the M.2_1 or M.2_2 slot, warding off
throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during sustained transfers.
The heatsink is held in place by captive screws.
VRM Heatsinks
and Thermal Pads
VRM heatsinks and
thermal pads improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for
better cooling performance.
