Asus ROG STRIX B760-A GAMING WIFI D4 ATX - motherboard

On its face, the Strix B760-A D4 wears a light aesthetic, but beneath its grey aluminum heatsinks lies a dark PCB flush with high-performance hardware. A VRM configuration equipped to handle high-core-count Intel® 13th Gen processors, PCIe 5.0 bandwidth for graphics cards, and next-gen WiFi 6E team up to bring devilishly good gaming to this heavenly board.

DIY-FRIENDLY FEATURES

PCIE® SLOT Q-RELEASE
A physical button unlocks the first PCIe slot’s security latch with one press, greatly simplifying the process of detaching a PCIe card from the motherboard when it’s time to upgrade to a new GPU or other compatible device.

M.2 Q-LATCH
The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an SSD from an M.2 slot. The design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive, eliminating the need for a traditional screw.

BIOS FLASHBACK™
BIOS FlashBack™ is a safe and simple way to update BIOS. Just drop the (UEFI) BIOS file onto a FAT32-formatted USB stick, plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack port, and press the button. Updates can even be performed without having memory or a CPU installed.

Q-LED
Four onboard LEDs indicate power status and identify problems with CPU, memory, graphics card, or boot device for quick diagnosis.
