Product overview

Announced in October 2022 with AMD’s B650 AM5 platform, the ASUS TUF Gaming B650‑PLUS WiFi belongs to ASUS’s TUF Gaming B650 family for Ryzen 7000, with later support added for Ryzen 8000 and 9000 via BIOS updates.

Positioned as a mainstream ATX B650 board, it exists to bring AM5, DDR5, and a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot to sensible‑cost builds. It’s well‑suited to expansion/multi‑M.2 setups (3 slots with one Gen5), high‑speed DDR5 (up to 256 GB across four DIMMs), abundant USB including rear Gen2x2 Type‑C, plus Wi‑Fi 6 and 2.5 Gb LAN. DIY aids like BIOS FlashBack and Q‑LED help first‑time builders. Not discontinued; BIOS releases continue through July 2026. Unique: USB4 support.
