ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II delivers all the essentials needed for a well-balanced build. Designed to handle the latest 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen™ and beyond, ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II features amped-up power delivery, optimised thermal design and more stable DDR4 memory. BIOS FlashBack™ makes upgrading easy to give any dream build a head start, and intuitive ROG software ensures a superior gaming experience.
With a robust power design to drive multi-core Ryzen processors, plus cooling, storage, connectivity and audio options for a wide range of hardware, ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II offers gamers everything they need for a budget or high-performance build.
Power Design
Digital power control and an array of power stages ensure ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II has the muscle to control the latest AMD CPUs.
8+4 Power Stages
8+4 power stages combine high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest AMD CPUs demand.
VRM Thermal Design
The ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II uses new alloy chokes that deliver better efficiency, and high-quality thermal pads to help transfer heat from the VRM array to a sink that has ample surface area for the latest processors. And to ensure critical components always make optimal contact, there's a backplate on the rear of the board that helps balance MOSFET temperatures while providing structural reinforcement.
M.2 Heatsink
An integrated heatsink keeps the M.2 SSD at optimum operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.
Cooler by Design
ROG Strix B450 series features the most comprehensive cooling options ever, configurable via Fan Xpert 4 or the UEFI BIOS.
