Digital Power Design

B850M AYW GAMING WIFI features an 8+2+1 phase power design with discrete MOSFETs, ensuring efficient and stable power delivery for AMD processors plus steady performance for day-to-day use.

- 8 Vcore power
- 2 SOC power
- 1 Misc power

Six-layer PCB design - Enhanced stability and overclocking.

The multi-layered printed circuit board design quickly dissipates heat around the voltage regulators to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.

Digi+ VRM control - Real-time voltage control.

The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings.

Enhanced Memory & Storage Performance - Enhanced DDR5 performance

Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ASUS B850 motherboards. The B850M AYW GAMING WIFI maximizes the potential of your DDR5 modules, from entry-level to extreme-speed kits.

For entry-level modules without EXPO™ support, ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and provides optimized profiles for enhanced performance.

For those looking to surpass stock DDR5 speeds, the B850M AYW GAMING WIFI offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support and a wide array of UEFI settings for further performance tweaks.

Two M.2 slots (up to 128Gbps)

B850M AYW GAMING WIFI offers a total of two M.2 slots, including one that supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128Gbps via PCIe 5.0, one that supports 64Gbps via PCIe 4.0. This enables quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.

Cooling - Cooler by design

The B850M AYW GAMING WIFI motherboard is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to help ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.

VRM heatsink and thermal pad
The massive VRM heatsink and essential thermal pad improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.

4-Pin PWM/DC fan
Each onboard header supports auto-detection of PWM or DC fans.

Multiple temperature sources
Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 2+ lets you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.

M.2 heatsink
The M.2 heatsink takes care of the M.2 slot, preventing throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during extended transfers.

Passive chipset heatsink
An aluminum passive chipset heatsink ensures optimal cooling and stable performance. It is more durable and longer-lasting than heatsinks with fans, which can be vulnerable to the buildup of dust and debris.

Smart protection
A dedicated integrated circuit protects each fan header from overheating and excess current.

ASUS Fan Xpert 2+

ASUS Fan Xpert 2+ software provides comprehensive control over fans. An Auto-Tuning mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There's also an Extreme Quiet mode that reduces chassis fan speeds to below the default minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks. Fans can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS.

Flexibility - Empowering connections

This motherboard offers a versatile range of connectivity, including support for WiFi 6, PCIe 5.0 M.2, PCIe 5.0 slot and an arsenal of USB ports which includes Type-C® connection.

WiFi 6

The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 1.2Gbps. 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.

High Speed Transferring

Numerous USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including two rear USB Type-A ports with transmission speeds of up to 10Gbps and a front USB Type-C® connector with ultrafast USB 5Gbps for transmission speeds of up to 5Gbps.

Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet

Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet reduces CPU overhead and offers exceptionally high TCP and UDP throughput for faster, smoother data transfers.

Customization - Personalization

The B850M AYW GAMING WIFI enhances the user experience across the board, from simplifying BIOS setting adjustments to offering customizable RGB lighting controls for a uniquely personal system aesthetic.

UEFI BIOS

The UEFI interface delivers easy-to-use configuration options for PC beginners, and advanced features for veterans.

M.2 Q-Latch

The innovative ASUS Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools or screws. This design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly detach it with one tap.

Q-LED

The on-board Q-LED troubleshooting lights give PC builders a quick indicator to confirm that key components - CPU, RAM, graphics card, storage devices - are functioning normally during startup. It can also alert them when memory modules have not been properly installed--even before booting.

Pre-Mounted I/O Shield

Our pre-installed I/O shield safeguards ports, simplifies the build process, increases functionality and enhances aesthetics for PC DIY enthusiasts.

BIOS FlashBack™

BIOS FlashBack™ simplifies BIOS updates. Just load the BIOS file onto a FAT32 USB stick, insert it into the BIOS FlashBack™ port, and press a button-no CPU or memory needed.

SafeSlot

PCIe 5.0 is twice as fast as PCIe 4.0. ASUS has adapted our SMT manufacturing for the faster SafeSlot, a reinforced metal sheath that ensures secure card installation and faster data speeds.
