ROG STRIX B860-A GAMING WIFI — White Power Meets Intelligent Precision
The ASUS ROG STRIX B860-A Gaming WiFi blends performance, design, and intelligence for gamers who demand excellence. Supporting Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2) with the LGA1851 socket, it features a 16+2+2 power stage design (80A each) and ProCool power connectors, delivering ultra-stable power even under extreme workloads.
Memory performance is unmatched, with DDR5 9066+ MT/s (OC) support, AEMP III, and DIMM Fit Pro, allowing optimized performance for every module. The Asynchronous Clock architecture isolates CPU and memory domains for flexible, stable overclocking. With NPU Boost, AI-driven workloads accelerate up to 24% faster, and the AI Advisor intelligently assists users in optimizing system settings through natural-language guidance.
For storage, the B860-A offers 4× M.2 slots (PCIe 5.0/4.0) and 4× SATA 6Gb/s ports, while expansion includes PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot and PCIe 4.0 x16 (x4). Connectivity is elite — WiFi 7, Intel® 2.5Gb Ethernet, USB4 (20Gbps), and Thunderbolt™ (USB4®) header ensure ultra-fast networking and data transfer.
Cooling is comprehensive, featuring VRM and M.2 heatsinks, multiple 4-pin fan headers, and Fan Xpert 4 control. With SupremeFX audio, Aura Sync RGB, and Q-Design DIY features (M.2 Q-Latch, PCIe Q-Release, BIOS FlashBack™), the Strix B860-A offers a perfect balance of intelligence, power, and elegance — all wrapped in a clean white design that stands out in any build.
