Description

Dominate the battlefield with the ASRock B850 Riptide WiFi AM5 ATX Motherboard, a high-performance solution crafted for gamers who demand power, precision, and stability. Inspired by the force of ocean riptides, this board combines calm efficiency with relentless strength, designed to deliver next-gen computing with stunning overclocking capabilities and immersive visuals.

Powered by the AMD B850 chipset, this ATX motherboard supports AMD Ryzenâ„Ē 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series processors on the AM5 socket, providing a future-ready platform for gamers and creators alike. The 8-layer PCB ensures efficient power delivery, signal stability, and better heat dissipation—ideal for those pushing their systems with DDR5 memory up to an impressive 8000+ MHz (OC), backed by support for both XMP and EXPO memory profiles.

The 14+2+1 phase power design with 80A Dr.MOS VCore+SOC phases guarantees stable overclocking and power efficiency under intense workloads. For storage, unleash ultra-fast performance with 1x Blazing M.2 PCIe Gen5x4 and 3x Hyper M.2 Gen4x4 slots, alongside 4 SATA3 ports for legacy drives. And when speed matters, the onboard Killer 2.5G LAN and next-gen Wi-Fi 7 with Bluetooth 5.4 provide seamless wired and wireless connectivity for low-latency gaming and streaming.

With rich expandability including PCIe 5.0 x16 and PCIe 4.0 x16 slots, the Riptide allows for powerful GPU support. The board’s USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C, multiple USB 3.2 Gen2/Gen1, and eight USB 2.0 ports deliver blazing-fast data transfer and peripheral compatibility. HDMI 2.1 supports up to 4K@120Hz, perfect for modern gaming displays.

Audio is powered by the Realtek ALC4082 7.1 CH HD codec with Nahimic Audio, offering immersive surround sound with 600-ohm headphone amp support for crystal-clear audio in games or content creation.

Built with gamers in mind, the ASRock B850 Riptide features extensive ARGB/RGB headers and is Polychrome RGB Sync certified, ready for full system lighting synchronization. It also supports SignalRGB for unified control across devices and reactive lighting effects.
