TUF GAMING B860M-PLUS WIFI

ASUS TUF GAMING B860M-PLUS WIFI takes all the essential elements of the latest Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) and combines them with game-ready features and proven durability. Engineered with military-grade components, an upgraded power solution and a comprehensive cooling system, this motherboard goes beyond expectations with rock-solid and stable performance for marathon gaming. TUF GAMING motherboards also undergo rigorous endurance testing to ensure that they can handle conditions where others may fail. This platform delivers the power and connectivity that advanced AI PC applications demand.


NPU Boost

The integrated NPU in Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) efficiently accelerates AI workflows and NPU Boost lets you do more with it. This BIOS feature overclocks the NPU with just one click, increasing performance by up to 24%.

* The overclocking performance may vary depending on the CPU series and motherboard used.

** Testing was conducted with an Intel Arrow Lake QS Q2HA Ultra 9 285K processor, ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme motherboard, GeForce RTX 4090 24GB graphics card, and XPG Lancer DDR5 memory modules (model AX5U6000C4016G).


Asynchronous Clock

For next-level frequency flexibility, the TUF Gaming B860M features a built-in clock generator that isolates CPU base clock from memory, NPU, D2D and NGU. Drive memory, NPU and others performance to their absolute brink while maintaining the stability of CPU clock domains.

Separate CPU BCLK from other domains for unfettered overclocking.

* *NGU stands for Next Generation Uncore. CPU
