ASUS AI ADVISOR
Using AI technology to understand
AI NETWORKING II
AI Networking II combines intelligent technologies to continuously optimize network performance, provide trustworthy and seamless connectivity, and unleash the full speed of WiFi 7*.
NPU BOOST
The integrated NPU in Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows — and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%.
Asynchronous Clock
For next-level frequency flexibility, the ROG Strix B860-A features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, NPU, D2D and NGU. Drive memory, NPU and others performance to their absolute brink while maintaining the stability of CPU clock domains.
Separate CPU BCLK from other domains for unfettered overclocking.
DDR5 DOMINATION
Enhanced signal routing can push enthusiast-grade kits well beyond the 9 GT/s threshold on the Strix B860-A.
AEMP III
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge
DIMM Fit / DIMM Fit Pro
DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyzes individual memory modules to optimize performance and pinpoint potential issues; whereas DIMM Fit Pro is an advanced option that provides more extensive customizability for memory
M.2 HEATSINKS
Heatsinks cover every slot to help keep onboard NVME SSDs at optimal temperatures for consistent performance and reliability.
VRM HEATSINK ARRAY
Two thick heatsinks covering the power delivery section provide strategic airflow channels for increased heat dissipation while empowering high-performance Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2)
CPU FAN HEADERS
A dedicated pair of PWM/DC fan headers provides easy access to CPU coolers.
AIO PUMP FAN HEADER
A dedicated PWM/DC header connects self-contained water-cooling setups.
WIFI 7
The revolutionary WiFi 7 is faster than standard WiFi 6*, thanks to tech like 160 MHz channels** on the 6GHz band and 4K QAM*. Multi-Link Operation (MLO) provides a more stable WiFi connection and lower latency, unlocking the realms of the unknown in gaming, streaming and industrial IoT.
Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet
Onboard Intel® 2.5Gb Ethernet gives your wired connection a boost, with speeds that are 2.5 times faster than standard Ethernet connections for speedy file transfers, low-latency gaming, and high-res video streaming.
PCIE 5.0
The Strix B860-A offers end-to-end PCIe 5.0 support, and the topmost x16 expansion slot is protected with a SafeSlot retention bracket to bear the weight of the latest graphics cards. One onboard M.2 slot is rated for blistering read and write speeds up to 16 GB/s, while the remainder can deliver still-impressive 8 GB/s transfers. And every M.2 slot is covered with substantial heatsinks to dispatch the heat of next-gen drives.
USB4® (20Gbps) PORT
The Strix B860-A comes loaded with one USB4® (20Gbps) port for speedy data transfers up to 20Gbps.
SupremeFX
ROG SupremeFX is a unique blend of hardware and software technologies that provide superior audio. The Strix B860-A implementation features the ALC1220P codec for high-resolution playback up to 32-bit/192 kHz across all channels. Front-panel output is streamed through the integrated Savitech amplifier that can drive high-fidelity acoustics to a wide variety of speakers and headsets.
AUDIO LINE SHIELDING
A specially designed circuit separation reduces electromagnetic interference from the motherboard and attached devices for cleaner audio.
SAVITECH SV3H712 AMPLIFIER
The integrated Hi-Fi Savitech amplifier holds up its end of the signal path with imperceptible levels of distortion at -90dB THD+N and a signal-to-noise ratio of 110dB for extremely clean output.
ALC1220P CODEC
Instead of the conventional high definition audio (HDA) interface, the ALC1220P codec uses a USB interface to deliver studio-level sound reaching up to 32-bit 192 kHz audio resolution.
UNDENIABLY ROG STRIX
The ROG Strix B860-A features a clean white design that complements any build. Its matching metallic heatsinks enhance the sleek look, while Aura Sync RGB lighting adds customizable effects for a subtle or bold style.
OUTSHINE THE COMPETITION
ROG Strix motherboards feature ASUS Aura technology, enabling full lighting control and a variety of presets for both onboard RGB LEDs and third-party accessories. Effects can be easily synced across compatible ROG graphics cards, monitors, keyboards, and mice to give your setup a unified look.
