Current-generation AM5 in a Micro-ATX footprint that fits almost any case
Quick Specs
- AMD B850 chipset, Socket AM5 for Ryzen 7000, 8000 and 9000 series
- Micro-ATX form factor, 244 x 244 mm
- 4 x DDR5 DIMM slots with AMD EXPO support
- PCIe 5.0 x16 graphics slot and PCIe 5.0 M.2 storage
- Wi-Fi 7 and 2.5 Gb Ethernet onboard
A compact build with no platform compromises
Micro-ATX used to mean an older chipset and slower lanes. Not here. The B850M-Plus WiFi carries the same PCIe 5.0 graphics slot and PCIe 5.0 primary M.2 as the full-size TUF board, four DDR5 slots rather than two, and Wi-Fi 7. It fits smaller and cheaper cases, which matters when a mid-tower is competing for space in a flat or a shared room. Pair it with a 9600X or 9800X3D and a mid-range GPU and you have a machine that gives up nothing to a larger build in the games you actually play.
The trade-offs of the smaller board
Micro-ATX means fewer expansion slots, so a capture card or sound card alongside the GPU is often not possible once the graphics cooler covers the slot below. Fan and RGB headers are fewer and more tightly spaced, and cable management is harder because the board does not reach the full width of a mid-tower's cable channel. As with all B850 boards there is no USB4, and networking tops out at 2.5 Gb. Buyers who want more expansion, more headers or USB4 should take the full ATX B850-Plus or step up to X870.

Questions
Before you buy
Which processors fit this board?
It takes AM5 processors on the B850 chipset. Socket and chipset together decide what will run: the socket has to match physically, and the chipset decides which generations on that socket are supported. For a chip released after the board, check the manufacturer’s CPU support list to see whether a BIOS update is needed first.
Which cases will this board fit?
It is Micro-ATX. A case supports its own size and anything smaller - an ATX case takes ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX boards, a Micro-ATX case takes Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX. Each case we sell lists the board sizes it accepts under Specifications.
What memory does it take?
DDR5 across 4 slots, up to 256GB in total. DDR4 and DDR5 are not interchangeable - the notch in the module is in a different place, so the wrong type will not seat. Buy the memory as a matched kit rather than as single sticks wherever you can.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
