Boasting a robust power design, comprehensive cooling solutions and intelligent tuning options, B650M-AYW WIFI provides users and PC DIY builders with a range of performance optimizations via intuitive software and firmware features. This platform delivers the power and connectivity that advanced AI PC applications demand.All-Around Energy EfficiencyThe Power Saving function contains several settings can easily optimize power consumption and maximize energy savings. You can enable a CPU power limit, darken Aura lighting, and set the fan profile to a power saving mode. You can also toggle the Power Saver plan that is built into Microsoft Windows.M.2 HeatsinkM.2 heatsink wards off throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during sustained transfers. The heatsink is held in place by captive screws, and these removable captive screws help reduce risk of drops or loss during heatsink removal.DDR5 Performance EnhancementComprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ASUS B650 series motherboards. With the B650M-AYW WIFI, you can extract all of 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, we’ve got you covered. Click here to learn more about AEMP. . For those who want to fly past stock DDR5 speeds, the B650M-AYW WIFI 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.StoragePCIe 5.0 M.2 SupportB650M-AYW WIFI offers a total of two M.2 slots, the first one supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128Gbps via PCIe 5.0, enabling quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.* Actual transmission speeds will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed.SafeSlot Core SafeSlot Core is the ASUS-exclusive PCIe slot fortified with a one-piece stainless-steel brace that shields the slot to protect it from damage. The metal cover is tightly secured to the slot with hooks, and the entire assembly is firmly anchored to the PCB with strengthened solder points to provide a secure foundation for heavyweight graphics cards.Strengthened solder points around the PCIe and DIMM pins.Metal inserts keep graphics cards properly aligned during installation.The metal side-panels feature hooks that firmly clasp the slot body.Overvoltage ProtectionWorld-class circuit-protecting power designAn exclusive circuit design with built-in voltage regulators to protect your motherboard from damage caused by unexpected high-level voltages from unstable or inferior power supplies.Stainless-Steel Back I/O3X corrosion-resistance for greater durabilityCorrosion-resistant stainless-steel back I/O panels bonded with chromium oxide have a lifespan that’s three times longer than ordinary panels.
