ASUS PROART B850-CREATOR WIFI NEO - Socket AM5, DDR5, AMD Ryzen 7000/8000/9000 - Motherboard

ASUS ProArt B850-CREATOR WIFI NEO is a high-performance ATX motherboard designed for creators and professionals, compatible with AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series CPUs and ready to support next-generation hardware.

This motherboard features the Socket AM5 platform and an AMD B850 chipset, offering robust support for DDR5 memory across four DIMM slots in dual-channel configuration, with ECC and non-ECC compatibility and up to 256 GB total capacity (up to 64 GB per slot) and memory speeds up to 9000 MHz for demanding workloads.

Storage is flexible with three M.2 slots (two Gen 5.0 x4 capable, one Gen 4.0), plus four SATA III connectors, allowing up to seven drives in total and RAID 0/1/5/10 support for performance and redundancy. Onboard RAID options make it suitable for content creators who need fast scratch storage and reliable archival solutions.

Expansion includes two PCIe x16 Gen 5 slots and two PCIe x16 Gen 4 slots, plus an additional PCIe x4 slot, enabling multi-GPU workflows, high-speed capture cards, and multiple NVMe add-in cards. The board exposes three M.2 mounting points sized up to 2280 for versatile SSD configurations.

Connectivity is comprehensive with dual 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, Wi‑Fi 7 (802.11be) with dual antenna jacks (Realtek RTL8922AE), Bluetooth, multiple USB ports including USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and Type-C on the rear, HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 for display output, and a high-end Realtek ALC1220P audio codec providing 7.1 channels for immersive monitoring.

Power and cooling are built for reliable continuous operation with dual 8‑pin EPS connectors, a 24‑pin ATX input, multiple fan and pump headers (two CPU fan connectors, four chassis fan headers, one water pump header), temperature sensor header and RGB LED pin headers. Passive cooling on VRMs keeps noise low while maintaining stability under load.

The ProArt B850-CREATOR WIFI NEO includes creator-focused features such as a 512 Mbit UEFI AMI BIOS with BIOS Flashback button, TPM connector, Thunderbolt header, front-panel connectivity, and bundled accessories like SATA cables, antennas and mounting screws. It is Windows 11 ready and optimized for professional applications.

Use cases include a video-editing workstation with multiple NVMe scratch drives and 5 GbE file transfers, a hybrid content-creation PC using GPU acceleration and fast DDR5 memory, or a compact rack-mounted rendering node leveraging RAID arrays and remote networking. Key selling points are Socket AM5 and DDR5 support, Wi‑Fi 7 and dual 5 GbE networking, multiple Gen 5 M.2 slots, extensive power/cooling headers and creator-oriented I/O.
