ASUS 90MB1MN0-M0VAY0 mATX Motherboard for AMD AM5 CPUs
The ASUS Pro WS B850M-ACE SE is a powerful and reliable motherboard made for professionals, creators, and anyone who needs strong performance in a smaller PC build. Built with the latest AMD B850 chipset and AM5 socket, it supports the newest AMD Ryzen™ 7000, 8000, and 9000 series processors — giving you fast speeds, smooth multitasking, and long-term upgrade potential.
This workstation-grade board is designed to handle demanding tasks like video editing, 3D design, engineering, and data work. With support for up to 256 GB of high-speed DDR5 memory, your system can easily manage heavy workloads without slowing down.
For storage, it includes two M.2 slots that can run at PCIe 5.0 speeds for ultra-fast SSDs, plus four SATA ports for traditional drives. That means quicker boot times, faster file transfers, and plenty of room for your projects.
Connectivity is another strong point — the board offers three network ports, including 10 Gigabit and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, giving you high-speed and stable connections for data-intensive jobs or networked workspaces. It also has a dedicated management port, allowing remote monitoring and maintenance if used in a professional setting.
On the back, you’ll find a wide selection of USB-C and USB-A ports for fast data transfer, along with HDMI, DisplayPort, and VGA outputs to support different types of displays.
Built to workstation standards, the Pro WS B850M-ACE SE features high-quality components, advanced cooling support, and ASUS’s trusted protection systems to keep your hardware running safely and efficiently over time.
