Engineered with military-grade components, an upgraded power solution and a comprehensive cooling system, this motherboard offers rock-solid and stable performance for marathon gaming. Aesthetically, TUF GAMING B660M-PLUS D4 sports the TUF Gaming logo and incorporates simple geometric design elements to reflect the dependability and stability that defines the TUF Gaming series.
Intel LGA 1700 socket: ready for 12th Gen Intel processors
Enhanced power solution: 10+1 DrMOS power stages, six-layer PCB, 8+4 ProCool sockets, military-grade TUF components and Digi+ VRM for maximum durability
Comprehensive cooling: enlarged VRM heatsink, Stack Cool 3+, flexible M.2 heatsink, PCH heatsink, hybrid fan headers and Fan Xpert 2+
Advanced connectivity: PCIe 5.0 slot, PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, rear USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C, front panel header for USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C and Thunderbolt 4 support
Made for online gaming: Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet, TUF LANGuard
Two-way AI noise-cancelation: reduces background noise from the microphone and audio output for crystal-clear communication in games or video conferences
DrMOSThe onboard VRMs feature 10+1 DrMOS power stages that combine high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that 12th Gen Intel Core processors demand.Six-layer PCB designMultiple PCB layers optimize heat management for critical components, providing more headroom to push CPUs beyond stock speeds.Digi+ VRMThe integrated Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry, optimized for ultra-smooth and ultra-clean power delivery to the CPU at all times.Enlarged VRM heatsinkThe extensive surface area of the massive heatsink covers the VRMs and chokes to improve heat dissipation.Flexible M.2 heatsinkThe TUF GAMING B660M Series has flexible M.2 heatsink to use one more M.2 slot and keep the M.2 SSD at the optimum operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.Two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slotsThe two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots support up to two 2280 devices and also provide NVMe SSD RAID support for incredible performance potential. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data transfer speeds.USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-CExtensive USB support ensures connections to a wide array of peripherals. TUF GAMING B660M-PLUS D4 includes a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port on the rear I/O panel that delivers increased bandwidth and transmission speeds of up to 20 Gbps.ESD GuardsESD Guards prolong the life of components while preventing damage from electrostatic discharge, providing protection for up to +/- 10 kV of air discharge and +/- 6 kV of contact discharge - greatly surpassing the respective industry standards of +/- 6 kV and +/- 4 kV. Surface-mounted TVS diodes in a dual in-line package help protect your PC from voltage spikes.TUF LANGuardTUF LANGuard is a military-grade innovation that integrates advanced signal-coupling technology and premium surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput, protecting the motherboard from lightning strikes and static electricity.Two-way AI noise cancelationThis powerful ASUS-exclusive utility leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone and incoming audio while preserving voices. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks and other ambient noises are removed so you can hear and be heard with perfect clarity while gaming or during calls.
