built to last
The ASUS Prime B840M-A motherboard is engineered to unleash the capabilities of AMD Ryzen™ 9000 series processors with a strong power setup, advanced cooling, and user-friendly tuning options. Packed with four M.2 slots, it offers ample room for high-speed storage, while PCIe® 4.0 x16 support gears it for modern graphics. Built for the future, it provides a combination of legacy and modern USB connections, ideal for gaming setups. With intuitive software and firmware, it’s crafted for PC builders aiming for high and reliable performance.
Robust Architecture
Stable power is crucial for squeezing max performance from AMD processors. It features 8 + 2 + 1 power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated equally. This configuration ensures optimal power delivery, efficiency, stability and performance for both current and future AMD processors.
DDR5 Domination
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and provides optimised profiles for enhanced performance. For those looking to surpass stock DDR5 speeds, the B840M-A offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support and a wide array of UEFI settings for further performance tweaks.
Loaded With M.2 Slots
B840M-A offers a total of three M.2 slots, including two that support 64 Gbps via PCIe 4.0, and one that supports PCIe 3.0. This enables quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.
GREAT FOR BEGINNER BUILDS
The B840M-A motherboard introduces EZ PC DIY features that streamline the building process for convenience and speed. A physical lever unlocks the first PCIe slot’s security latch with a single tap, simplifying the removal of graphics cards or other devices during upgrades. The ASUS Q-Latch offers tool-free M.2 SSD installation, using a simple locking mechanism for easy drive attachment and removal. Additionally, the Q-LED Core display provides color-coded lights during the Power-On Self-Test (POST), assisting with quick troubleshooting of potential issues.
Pre-Mounted I/O Shield
The pre-installed I/O shield safeguards ports, simplifies the build process, increases functionality and enhances aesthetics for PC DIY enthusiasts.
BIOS Flashback™
BIOS FlashBack™ simplifies BIOS updates. Just load the BIOS file onto a FAT32 USB stick, insert it into the port, and press a button—no CPU or memory needed.
PCIe Safe Slot
ASUS have adapted SMT manufacturing for the faster SafeSlot, a reinforced metal lining that ensures secure card installation and faster data speeds.
