ASUS ROG Strix B850-E Gaming WiFi AM5 ATX Motherboard
The ASUS ROG Strix B850-E Gaming WiFi is an AM5 ATX motherboard built for builders who want to extract full performance from AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series desktop processors without complex manual tuning. It combines AI-assisted overclocking, a 16+2+2 power stage design rated at up to 90A per stage, and end-to-end PCIe 5.0 support to handle demanding workloads. WiFi 7, Realtek 5Gb Ethernet, and a USB4 Type-C port make it a strong choice for anyone who also needs fast wired and wireless connectivity at the desktop.
Why this product
16+2+2 Power Stages at 90A Each
The power delivery system uses 16+2+2 stages, each rated for up to 90A, paired with Dual ProCool Power Connectors to sustain stable voltage under sustained CPU loads.
AI Overclocking and AI Cache Boost
Built-in AI Overclocking profiles and AI Cache Boost analyse system conditions and apply optimised settings automatically, reducing the need for manual BIOS tuning.
WiFi 7 with 6 GHz Band Support
The onboard Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) adapter supports 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands with 320 MHz channel width and 4096-QAM, paired with the ASUS WiFi Q-Antenna for placement flexibility.
Five M.2 Slots Including Two Gen 5
Two PCIe Gen 5 x4 and three PCIe Gen 4 x4 M.2 slots are included, alongside M.2 Q-Latch, Q-Release, and Q-Slide tool-free installation aids.
USB4 Type-C with 40 Gbps and Display Output
The rear panel includes one USB4 (40 Gbps) Type-C port that supports DP Alt mode, providing a single high-bandwidth connection for fast storage devices or external displays.
Realtek 5Gb Ethernet with ASUS LANGuard
The 5 Gb wired connection is protected by ASUS LANGuard surge protection, and AI Networking II helps prioritise network traffic for lower-latency gaming.

- Supports DDR5 memory in dual-channel configuration across 4 DIMM slots, up to 192 GB, with AMD EXPO and ASUS AEMP profiles up to 8000+ MT/s (OC).
- Full-size ATX form factor — fits standard mid-tower and full-tower cases that accept ATX boards.
- PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot for the primary GPU, with a secondary PCIe 4.0 x16 slot running at x4 bandwidth for additional cards or adapters.
- ECC memory is supported in un-buffered form only; registered (RDIMM) ECC modules are not compatible.
- Does not support DDR4 memory — DDR5 only.
Best for
- AMD Ryzen builders who want a B850 platform with strong power delivery and AI-assisted tuning rather than manual overclocking.
- Content creators and power users who need multiple fast storage slots — two PCIe Gen 5 and three PCIe Gen 4 M.2 slots plus four SATA 6 Gb/s ports.
- Connectivity-focused users who want WiFi 7, 5 Gb Ethernet, and a USB4 Type-C port on a single board without add-in cards.
- Gamers running high-refresh audio setups who can use the onboard ROG SupremeFX 7.1-channel audio with Realtek ALC4080 and optical S/PDIF output.
- Builders who value tool-free assembly, as M.2 Q-Latch, Q-Release, and Q-Slide reduce the fiddly steps of installing and replacing M.2 drives.
Trade-offs
- Intel platform users — this board uses the AM5 socket and is incompatible with any Intel processor.
- DDR4 memory owners — the board accepts DDR5 only, so existing DDR4 kits cannot be reused.
- Multi-GPU workstation builders — only one full-bandwidth PCIe 5.0 x16 slot is available; the second slot runs at x4.
- Small form factor builds — the ATX form factor will not fit Mini-ITX or Micro-ATX cases.
The ROG Strix B850-E Gaming WiFi is engineered to harness the full potential of AMD Ryzen™ 9000 Series processors.
