ASUS ROG Strix B760-F Gaming Wifi DDR5 Intel Motherboard

The ASUS ROG Strix B760-F Gaming WiFi DDR5 is a full-size ATX motherboard built for Intel 12th and 13th Generation Core processors on the LGA1700 socket. Powered by the Intel B760 chipset, it delivers a capable and feature-rich platform for enthusiast gaming and content-creation rigs alike. At the heart of its power delivery sits a 16+1 phase VRM, with each stage rated at 60A, channelling ample current to demanding Intel processors across all workloads. Two thick VRM heatsinks with airflow channels keep temperatures in check, while a six-layer PCB aids heat dissipation around the voltage regulators for improved system stability. Memory support extends to four DDR5 DIMM slots accommodating up to 128GB of Non-ECC unbuffered RAM, with native speeds starting at DDR5-4800 and XMP overclocking profiles reaching DDR5-7800. ASUS OptiMem II optimises signal routing to help push memory performance further. For storage, three PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots (all Key M, with heatsinks included) combine with four SATA 6Gb/s ports, giving builders flexible options for fast NVMe SSDs alongside traditional drives. The primary PCIe x16 slot runs at PCIe 5.0 bandwidth from the CPU, providing headroom for current and future discrete graphics cards. Connectivity is comprehensive: onboard 2×2 WiFi 6E (802.11ax, tri-band 2.4/5/6 GHz) with Bluetooth 5.3 handles wireless, while a dedicated Intel 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port with ASUS LANGuard serves wired users. The rear I/O panel hosts 8 USB ports — including a USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C at 20Gbps — plus DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 outputs for integrated graphics, five audio jacks, and an optical S/PDIF output. Audio is handled by the ROG SupremeFX system using a Realtek ALC4080 CODEC, delivering 120 dB SNR stereo playback and 113 dB SNR recording input, up to 32-bit/384 kHz, with a Savitech SV3H712 amplifier and dedicated shielded PCB layers for clean signal integrity. Builder-friendly ASUS Q-Design features include PCIe Slot Q-Release (one-button GPU removal), M.2 Q-Latch (tool-free SSD installation), Q-LED diagnostics for CPU/DRAM/VGA/boot-device status, and BIOS FlashBack for CPU-free firmware updates. Aura Sync RGB lighting is supported via one ARGB Gen 2 header trifecta (3 headers) and one standard Aura RGB header.
