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 Ryzen™ 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.
