Review on πŸ’» ASUS TUF Gaming B460M-Plus WiFi 6 LGA1200 Micro ATX Motherboard: Intel 10th Gen, 1Gb LAN, USB 3.2, Aura Sync by Bima ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

Works in a Fractal Design meshify C mini case in conjunction with an intel core i7-11700, 2x WD SN750 m.2 SSDs, HyperX Fury 64GB (32GBx2) DDR4 3200MHz CL16. Everything is fine, I don’t know what else is needed from the motherboard.

Pros
  • - All the advantages of the B560 chipset, namely memory overclocking (not even by hand, XMP profile is supported), PCI-E 4.0, Wi-Fi 6, usb 3.2, 4 memory slots. - In addition, the advantages of this particular model: PCI-E 4.0 on the m.2 slot under the radiator, m.2 contains a proprietary socket from asus, while the package contains two sets of screws + a rack for mounting non-2280 format disks, reinforced with PCI-Ex16 slot, you can configure RAID arrays, unobtrusive backlighting in the corner, which can be completely disabled in the BIOS. Also, for someone, the presence of USB type-C for the front panel will be a plus. In general, it is beautiful, works, contains a rich set of ports on the rear panel (for example, a bunch of USB ports, HDMI + DP, while there are no PS / 2 or outdated printer ports).
Cons
  • - The radiator is only on one m.2 slot and there are only two of them instead of three, which are on the ATX board, but the last one seems to be a price for compactness. - I wish the Wi-Fi antenna was magnetic. As far as I know, in the ROG series it is magnetic, here it is just a plastic fin. Nothing prevents me from sticking a piece of magnetic tape to the bottom myself, but I would like it out of the box. - Now I have only two case fans, but when adding new ones, I will have to connect them through a splitter. - Does not apply to the disadvantages of the motherboard, but still: all other boards that I looked at the market are divided into two products depending on the availability of Wi-FI, the same in one, but different options in prices, while if you filter only with the presence of Wi-FI, then it will not be in the results. In general, I accidentally stumbled upon it and canceled the ASUS ROG STRIX B560-G GAMING WIFI, which I do not regret.

It is bundled with I7 11700, 2*KVR32N22D8/16 (although it is not in the list of compatible ones on the Asus website), 970 evo plus (but I would like 980 pro).
