    Proprietary connectors augment the motherboard's link to the PSU with 8 pin connectors that pass 12 volts of power directly to the processors. Each jack features solid pins that can handle more current than hollow-pin connectors.

    Six-Layer PCB Design

    Multiple PCB layers optimize heat management for critical components, providing more headroom to push CPUs beyond stock speeds.

    Memory

    DDR5 Performance Enhancement

    Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of PRIME motherboards. With the PRIME B650-PLUS, you can extract all the potential out of your DDR5 modules, whether they're from an extreme-speed kit or an entry-level set that would otherwise be locked.

    For entry-level modules without EXPO™ memory support, ASUS has got you covered.

    For those who want to fly past stock DDR5 speeds, the PRIME B650-PLUS is primed and ready for enthusiast-grade kits courtesy of vast AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support. Seasoned veterans can further tweak performance via the extensive array of settings in the UEFI.

    Exclusive AEMP

    ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) is an exclusive firmware feature for PMIC-restricted memory modules. AEMP automatically detects the memory chips on your kit and then presents optimized frequency, timing, and voltage profiles that you can effortlessly apply to unleash performance.

    ASUS OptiMem II

    Revisions to the motherboard’s trace routing provide the latest processors with unrestricted access to memory bandwidth. ASUS OptiMem II technology carefully maps memory signal pathways across different PCB layers to reduce vias and adds shielding zones that significantly reduce crosstalk.

    Benefits of ASUS OptiMem II:

    • Improved memory stability and compatibility
    • Allows lower memory latencies at equivalent voltages
    • Improved memory frequency margin
    Motherboards with OptiMem II technology were tested with Synopsys HSPICE simulation software.
