ASRock B650M PG Lightning WiFi AM5 mATX Motherboard

The ASRock B650M PG Lightning WiFi is a Micro-ATX motherboard designed around the AMD B650 chipset for the AM5 socket. It supports AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 series processors, managed by a 6+2+1 Dr.MOS power phase design to ensure stable power delivery. The board accommodates up to 256 GB of dual-channel DDR5 memory across four DIMM slots, with support for overclocking profiles such as EXPO and XMP to achieve speeds of 7200 MHz or higher. This configuration provides a solid foundation for compact gaming or productivity systems that require high-speed memory performance.

For expansion and connectivity, the motherboard includes a primary PCIe 4.0 x16 slot with reinforcement for heavy graphics cards. Storage options are extensive, featuring a high-speed PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot, two additional PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, and four SATA III ports, with support for RAID 0, 1, and 10 arrays. Networking is handled by a 2.5GbE LAN port for fast wired connections and an integrated Wi-Fi 6E module that also provides Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. The audio system is based on the Realtek ALC897 codec, and the rear I/O panel offers a range of USB ports, including Type-C, alongside HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 outputs.
