Memory & Storage Synergy

DDR5 DominationASUS Enhanced Memory Profile (AEMP) automatically detects memory chips and provides optimised profiles for enhanced performance. For those looking to surpass stock DDR5 speeds, the B860 TUF GAMING PLUS offers extensive AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) support and a wide array of UEFI settings for further performance tweaks.

Loaded With M.2 SlotsThe B860 TUF GAMING PLUS features two PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slots and a PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slot, delivering high-speed storage expansion. The Gen5 M.2 slot enables data transfers up to 128 Gbps, while all M.2 slots support NVMe RAID, providing increased speed and redundancy to help safeguard data against drive failures.

DIY Friendly

GREAT FOR BEGINNER BUILDSThe TUF GAMING PLUS WiFi 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 ShieldThe 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 SlotASUS have adapted SMT manufacturing for the faster SafeSlot, a reinforced metal sheath that ensures secure card installation and faster data speeds.

Windows 11 Logo Is your Windows Genuine?

Many copies of Windows operating systems bought from unofficial channels like auction websites are not Genuine, even if they have allowed you to upgrade to newer versions. Buying a Genuine copy from an authorised reseller like Scan ensures you will get the latest updates, security patches and support from Microsoft.
