ROG Strix B660-A Gaming WiFi offers robust power delivery and optimised cooling to unleash the performance of the latest 12th Gen Intel® CPUs. Meanwhile, onboard PCIe® 5.0 and three PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots provide lightning-fast data transfers for an endless variety of scenarios. Exclusive ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile tuning also propels PMIC-locked DDR5 modules to new heights. Finally, DIY-friendly innovations streamline the building process, and a striking silver-white aesthetic delivers an appropriately premium feel.
TEAMED POWER STAGES
12+1 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETS and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest Intel processors can take full advantage of.
ALLOY CHOKES AND CAPACITORS
High-end chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, enabling performance that exceeds industry standards.
PROCOOL POWER CONNECTOR
The ASUS ProCool socket is built to exacting specifications to ensure flush contact with the PSU power lines, enabling lower impedance and better heat dissipation.
DIGI+ POWER CONTROL
The Digi+ voltage regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry, ensuring ultra-smooth and clean power delivery to the CPU.
SIX-LAYER PCB
A 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.
DDR5 Overclocking Strength
Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ROG motherboards. For DDR5, ROG Strix B660-A Gaming WiFi breaks performance limits by providing a stacked suite of overclocking parameters for not only high-speed kits, but even entry-level memory modules that have a locked power management IC (PMIC).
A dedicated circuit on the motherboard safely circumvents DDR5 memory PMIC restrictions, allowing you to step past the default 1.1-volt limit and push frequency and timings to the max.
Ordinarily, a restricted PMIC that has been unlocked requires the system to be fully power-cycled each time memory voltage is adjusted. ROG motherboards leverage onboard hardware and firmware to cleverly work around this irksome limitation, enabling voltage adjustments to be applied through the same soft system-reset process employed for previous generations of DDR memory.
For users new to memory overclocking, ROG Strix B660-A Gaming WiFi includes the exclusive ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP)* firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules.
Undeniably ROG Strix
The ROG Strix B660-A Gaming WiFi will turn heads with a striking silver-white finish that contrasts with a bold Aura RGB-illuminated logo. Meanwhile, parallel strakes and angled text on the aluminum I/O, M.2 and PCH heatsinks tie the whole aesthetic together and underline the ROG Strix fundamentals of speed, diversity and attitude.
