TUF GAMING ALLIANCE
TUF Gaming Alliance is the marque of collaboration between ASUS and major PC-component manufacturers, including trusted brands like Ballistix, Cooler Master, Corsair, G.Skill, In Win and Themaltake. A growing range of compliant parts, from PC chassis and power supplies to CPU coolers and DRAM, guarantee both compatibility and aesthetic harmony. We're also continually increasing our partnerships, making the TUF Gaming Alliance ever stronger.
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.
ESD GUARDS
ESD Guards prolong the life of components while preventing damage from electrostatic discharge, providing protection for up to +/- 10kV of air discharge and +/- 6kV of contact discharge—greatly surpassing the respective industry standards of +/- 6kV and +/- 4kKV
Lan Port: ESD TVS diode protection on the LAN Circuit.
Keyboards and Mouse Connectors: Additional on-circuit ESD transient-voltage-suppression.
VGA Protection: Additional on-circuit ESD TVS diodes to protect D-Sub functionality.
USB Connectors: TVS diode for surface-mount and dual-inline package.
TUF CHOKES
Certified military-grade TUF chokes deliver rock-steady power to the CPU, helping to improve system stability.
TUF CAPACITORS
+20% temperature tolerance and 2.5X-longer lifespan.
TUF MOSFETS
Certified military-grade MOSFETs with lower RDS(on)*.
*Lower RDS(on) results in better power efficiency and reduced heat generation.
FAN XPERT 2+
System temperatures are key to a stable gaming rig. TUF Gaming motherboards include FAN Xpert 2+ software that's able to intelligently control system fans based upon the input of sensor. This ensures that your TUF Gaming system stays perfectly cooled, no matter how long you play.
IMPROVED DDR4 STABILITY—ASUS OPTIMEM
ASUS OptiMem preserves memory signal integrity by routing traces and vias to the optimal PCB layer, and our T-Topology trace layout ensures time-aligned signaling by balancing trace lengths between memory slots. These enhancements allow the TUF Gaming motherboards to support a wide range of dual and quad-DIMM memory kits, while providing your rig with the stability it needs to deal with any type of workload—whether you're gaming or running intensive applications.
OUTSHINE THE COMPETITION—EDGE ZONE
A well-tuned system deserves a matching aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of functional presets for the built-in RGB LEDs as well as strips connected to the onboard RGB headers. And it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-capable hardware.
BUNDLE A PCIE TO M.2 WIFI CARD
ASUS PCIE TO M.2 WIFI CARD comes with an easy-to-install Realtek Wireless-8821CE Wi-Fi module, which provides Gigabit download speed and improves connected experience.
TUF LANGuard
TUF 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.
DUAL ONBOARD M.2 AND M.2 HEATSINK
TUF B365M-PLUS GAMING (WI-FI) features dual onboard M.2 slots, both operating at X4 PCI Express 3.0 to provide a scintillating 32Gbps of bandwidth. The primary slot, placed below the CPU socket and covered by a heatsink, uses the chassis airflow to keep drive temperatures under control, ensuring peak performance under all scenarios.
INTEL OPTANE MEMORY READY
Intel Optane is a revolutionary non-volatile memory technology supported by TUF Gaming motherboards. Intel Optane memory modules accelerate attached storage to reduce boot and load times, so everything feels faster and more responsive.
