Product overview
Announced on October 3, 2022 as part of ASUS’s first AM5 B650/B650E lineup, the TUF Gaming B650E-PLUS WiFi targets Ryzen 7000-era builds and later gained official BIOS support for Ryzen 8000/9000 processors. Retail availability for B650/B650E boards began around October 10, 2022.Sourcepress.asus.com
Positioned as a mainstream B‑series ATX board, it exists to deliver AM5 features and robust connectivity without X‑series pricing. It offers one PCIe 5.0 x16 slot plus a PCIe 5.0 M.2, two additional PCIe 4.0 M.2, four SATA, Wi‑Fi 6E, 2.5GbE, rear USB‑C 20Gbps and a front USB‑C 10Gbps; four DDR5 DIMM slots allow high‑speed memory and up to 192 GB. Unique note: few B‑series boards pair PCIe 5.0 for both the GPU and an M.2 slot. Not discontinued; ASUS still lists it with active BIOS updates and a Where to Buy page.Sourceasus.com
