ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming WiFi AMD B650 AM5 Ryzen™ Desktop 9000 8000 & 7000 ATX Motherboard, 12+2 Power Stages, DDR5, 3X M.2 Slot, PCIe® 5.0, WiFi 6E, 2.5G LAN, USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C®, Aura Sync

Very good mid-range board. It's a good looking board and is working great. The B650 is a good chipset for a basic rig that you just want to work or game on and don't plan to do tons of overclocking or need a bunch of features that most people don't use. Very impressed using in a gaming PC with a 9800X3D CPU.

Quick and painless setup with multiple 5v jacks along the right side and bottom of the board for fans. Good setup for a glass case where you want to hide the wires as much as possible. Quality build and the solder job on the PCB doesn’t look bad. Had a few issues with drivers but eventually got it squared away. I like that it has so many M.2 storage slots for expanded storage (games are becoming massive) - PSA I did have an issue with games stuttering horribly because I had an Ethernet cable connected and the WiFi on my PC turned on at the same time so it was bouncing connections back and forth and disconnecting my controllers. Turned WiFi off and got a flawless gaming experience immediately.

If you can get it on sale, it's great value, I'd 100% recommend it, it's safe for X3D CPUs, and asus BIOS allows for good tweakings, just keep in mind it's not fully white, more like silverish, still looks great, good VRMs for pretty much any CPU, and good hearsinks, connectivity wise is good, not great, but if you need a lot of USB ports, just get something else. The manual is also easy to understand, but I wouldn't recommend building without a tutorial. Can handle high speed memory, and the heat sinks are beefy for your primary SSD, BIOS is easy to update and shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes. Overall great if it's on sale or you want some entry level ROG experience.

Functional and stylish. I like that the m2 slots on the front come with a cover already so you do not need to buy your own heatsinks for them. There's an additional m2 slot on the back, but it is very low profile so it may not even fit a heatsink. Another great quality about this board is that it has light indicators at the top for checking each of the systems on boot, so if you have a problem with ram, it will light up the ram light. That was my issue as I didn't fully press my ram sticks in (feels like Im breaking them!). I paired this mobo with a Ryzen 7 9800x3d, 5080 TI oc, 32gb of ram and a 1000w psu. It went on sale for $200 around Black Friday 2025.

First off — yeah, it’s marketed as a white motherboard, and mostly it is… but you do get some black undertones in the PCB and components. Not a dealbreaker, still looks slick, but if you’re going for that full white-out build, just know it’s not pure white like the newer revision that came out later (where even the base PCB is fully white). That said, it feels premium. RGB zones are fully customizable, tons of headers and connectors, CPU socket install was smooth, and everything from unboxing to setup felt like handling a high-end product. What you see in the listing photos is exactly what you get. Now the cons — and this is why I’m knocking off a star: 1. The included Wi-Fi antenna is black. It just… clashes. For a board that leans into the white aesthetic, I was honestly surprised they didn’t throw in a matching white or at least gray antenna. Tiny detail? Sure. But if you’re building a color-themed rig, it stands out. 2. No optical audio out. That really threw me. I get that digital audio is moving to USB and HDMI, but come on — this is a top-tier gaming board. If you’re running high-end speakers or older AV gear with optical input, you’re out of luck. And yeah, maybe I should’ve caught that in the specs, but still — feels like a strange omission at this level. Overall: it’s powerful, it’s pretty, it performs. But for a board this expensive, missing basics like color-matched accessories and optical out kinda takes away from the experience.

I ordered this motherboard as I was planning on upgrading my 8-year-old AMD 3700/Geforce 2060 system. The first motherboard arrived with the packaging severely damaged. This was not a shipping issue; the entire box looked like it had gone through some difficult times. So I did not trust what was inside the box. I requested a new motherboard while sending the first one back. The new board arrived two days later. I was excited. I put the PC together, and the CPU fan was only turning its lights on, but not spinning. Removed and reseated the CPU fan, and that started working. However, one of the error/boot lights on the motherboard was yellow. Typically meaning there was an issue with the DRAM. I took the RAM out, used a fan to blow out any dust, and reseated the memory. Booted again, and nothing. So I thought maybe it's a BIOS issue, looking up this board and issues with a 9900 series processor. I was able to download the BIOS update to my cell phone and use an "on the go" cable to transfer the BIOS to a USB flash drive. I initiated the BIOS update as per the instructions, and when I booted the PC, it just got stuck in a "BIOS is updating LED firmware. Do not shut down or reset the system to prevent system bootup failure" screen. I looked at several forums, and some said it took minutes to a day for the system to update. I thought that to be unusual, but not impossible. I let it run overnight and then the next day, since I had to work. Came home, and it was still stuck at the same screen, just looping. I boxed it up and requested a return. I do not recommend this motherboard until ASUS fixes the issues with its quality. The quality of this particular board was very bad.

Received the item with perfect condition

Excellent

Ürün çok özenli paketli halde geldi. Gereken özen için teşekkür ederim . Ürünü henüz çalıştırmadım. Ama herhangi bir sorun yok görünüyor

The ASUS ROG Strix B650-A Gaming WiFi is one of those boards that hits a sweet spot for Ryzen builders who want premium features without wandering into overkill territory. It’s got that clean white Strix look that pairs nicely with themed builds and the layout is super friendly for first time AM5 users. Performance is rock solid with good VRMs for boosting Ryzen 7000 chips and the BIOS is classic ASUS which means easy tuning and reliable memory support. You get plenty of I/O, fast WiFi, PCIe 5 on the storage side, and enough fan headers to make a serious airflow setup. Overall it feels like a board built for gamers and creators who want stability, style, and room to grow.
