Product Overview
ASUS Prime B450 Series motherboards provide the solid foundation needed for your first build, plus flexibility to grow with your ambitions. We've melded all the good stuff that's packed into AMD Ryzen⢠processors with essential ASUS design and engineering, so you benefit from industry-leading technologies â including automated system tuning, comprehensive cooling controls, and immersive onboard audio. When you build with an ASUS Prime B450 Series motherboard, you build smart, easy and affordably. Prime B450 Series features the most comprehensive cooling controls ever, configurable via ASUS Fan Xpert software or the UEFI BIOS. Featuring an array of trace layout tweaks that improve memory stability, PRIME B450 Series provides a potent foundation for your build. With comprehensive support for the full gamut of Ryzen memory configurations â from entry-level to performance-oriented â PRIME B450 Series is a versatile all-rounder that can work or play. The UEFI BIOS is an early waypoint on any PC-building journey, and Prime B450 Series has one of the best in the business. Can configure the fan's operating speed manually, or use the easy pre-configured fan profiles to select Standard, Silent, Turbo or Full Speed modes, plus automatic switch to full speed if the temperature hits 75°C. When you're ready for a deeper dive, Advanced mode enables full control over every aspect of the motherboard â with a built-in Search function to find the setting you need in the blink of an eye. WizardQuickly apply a CPU overclock to improve system performance, or configure a RAID array for faster data retrieval and backups. Fine-tune individual fans simply by dragging a curve with the mouse. Display SATA port details that help you easily recognize drives. Use mouse controls to change the time and date. Quickly find tuning options and add preferred tools to the list. Save BIOS settings for migration to new BIOS version or system. Rename SATA ports for easy identification. Ultimate-speed 10Gbps with USB 3.1 Gen 2 onboard. With backward-compatible USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-Aâ¢, you'll experience ultimate connection flexibility and blazing data-transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps â twice as fast as standard USB 3.1 Gen 1. Future-proof connectivity. USB 3.1 Gen 1 is right where you need it, with four super-speed headers for the front panel. Experience data-transfer speeds up to 10X faster than USB 2.0 with instant plug-and-play connectivity, and avoid back-breaking contortions in the hunt for hard-to-reach rear ports.
