B650M PROJECT ZERO
Absolute Simplicity
The B650M PROJECT ZERO is designed with tons of connectivity, flexible tools, a convenient Wi-Fi solution and DDR5 memory support for gamers who want it all.
Supports AMD Ryzen 7000 Processors (Zen 4, AM5) Direct 10 phase VRM Power with 80A SPS 4 x DDR5 DIMMs with Memory Boost: Dual Channel (128GB Max. / 6400MHz OC) 1x PCIe 4.0 x16 slot Lightning Gen4 M.2 & M.2 Shield Frozr 7.1 HD Audio with Audio Boost USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C (20Gbps) Realtek 2.5G LAN, Wi-Fi 6E & Bluetooth 5.3
Cleaner Front View
The B650M PROJECT ZERO moves the power connectors, fan connectors, and other pin headers to the back of the motherboard. This provides a cleaner and neater front view, allowing the motherboard, liquid cooler, and graphics card’s aesthetic design to be fully displayed.
Back-Connect Design
Back-Connect Design: Moving the connectors to the back not only keeps the front clean but also makes connector access easier and more effortless.
Easy cable management: Eliminate the step of routing the cables from front to back to lower the difficulty of cable management.
Supports AMD Ryzen 7000 Processors
The B650M PROJECT ZERO motherboard supports AMD Ryzen 7000 processors.
Form Factor: Back-connect Micro-ATX*
Socket Type: AM5
Chipset: AMD B650
