Add Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 2.5G LAN in the box and this becomes a straightforward foundation for a Ryzen 7 7700 or 9700X gaming machine. For local buyers, the four DDR5 slots also mean you can buy 32GB now and add more when memory pricing swings favourably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe compromises to weigh\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eB840 is a mainstream chipset and it sits below B850 on connectivity. You do not get a PCIe 5.0 graphics slot and Gen5 storage support is limited compared with the higher tiers, so if you have your eye on a Gen5 NVMe drive, look at B850 or X870. CPU overclocking support on B840 is restricted relative to B650 and B850, which makes this a board for running chips at stock or with Precision Boost Overdrive rather than manual tuning. There is no post-code display and audio is solid mainstream rather than premium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull ATX layout with generous cooler clearance and reinforced mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard Wi-Fi and Bluetooth alongside 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAMD EXPO one-click DDR5 memory profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASUS Q-Latch tool-free M.2 mounting and PCIe Slot Q-Release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBIOS FlashBack for firmware updates without a CPU or memory installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: ASUS Prime B840-Plus WiFi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChipset: AMD B840\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket: AMD Socket AM5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm Factor: ATX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory: 4 x DDR5 DIMM, dual channel, up to 128GB, AMD EXPO overclocked profile support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion Slots: 1 x PCIe 4.0 x16, plus additional PCIe x16 and x1 slots for add-in cards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage: 2 x M.2 sockets for PCIe NVMe SSDs, 4 x SATA 6Gb\/s ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetworking: 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet plus onboard Wi-Fi and Bluetooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio: Realtek HD audio codec with rear audio jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear I\/O Highlights: HDMI and DisplayPort output for Ryzen integrated graphics, Wi-Fi antenna connectors, 2.5G LAN and audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB: USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C and Type-A plus USB 3.2 Gen1 and USB 2.0 rear ports, with front-panel USB headers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 3 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASUS Prime B840-Plus WiFi motherboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWi-Fi antenna\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x SATA data cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM.2 Q-Latch package and mounting screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser manual and support documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy ASUS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eASUS keeps its AM5 boards current through years of AGESA updates, which is the difference between a board that takes the next Ryzen generation and one that does not.
