DrMOSThe onboard VRM of TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II utilizes 8+2 DrMOS power stages that combine high-side and low-side MOSFETs and driver into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen Processors demand. |
Cooler by designVRM HEATSINK A large, high-mass heatsink with an extensive surface that covers the VRM and chokes areas improves heat dissipation. High-quality thermal pads help transfer heat from the inductor and phase array to the heatsink. The M.2 heatsink keeps the M.2 SSD at the optimum operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability. |
PCIe 4.0 M.2 (up to 64 Gbps)TUF Gaming B550 series motherboards support PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot and provide NVMe SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to PCIe 4.0 storage device to enjoy the fastest data-transfer speeds on the 3rd Generation AMD Ryzen platform. |

USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A & Type-CNumerous USB ports support gaming rigs loaded with peripherals, including USB Type-A and Type-C connectors with fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity for compatible cases. |
Thunderbolt 3 supportAn integrated Thunderbolt 3 header supports up to 40 Gbps of the aggregate interface bandwidth. One Thunderbolt 3 port can support up to six devices in a daisy-chain, and provide up to 15 watts of power to fast-charge devices. |
SafeSlotSafeSlot is the PCIe slot reinvented by ASUS and engineered to provide superior retention and shearing resistance. Manufactured via a new insert-molding process, SafeSlot integrates fortifying metal for an inherently stronger slot, which is then firmly anchored to the PCB through additional solder points. |

BIOS FlashBackBIOS FlashBack is the simplest and safest (UEFI) BIOS update method. Simply drop the (UEFI) BIOS file onto a FAT32 formatted USB stick, plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack port and press the button. Updates can even be performed without having memory or a CPU installed. |
WIFI 6The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 1.2 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it’s optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6. |
AI NOISE-CANCELING MICROPHONEAI Noise-Canceling Microphone software is exclusively featured on ASUS motherboards and supports 3.5 mm, USB, or Bluetooth headsets. The utility leverages a massive deep-learning database to preserve the sound of your voice while eliminating distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks, and other forms of environmental noise. And it only places a slight load on the CPU, ensuring minimal impact on gaming performance. |
