Performance
Robust power design
Stable power is crucial for maximizing the performance of Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2). The B860M MAX GAMING AX is designed to meet the needs of high-core-count CPUs. It features 6(80A) + 1(80A) + 1(80A) + 1(80A) power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated for up to 80 amperes each. This configuration ensures optimal power delivery, efficiency, stability and performance for both current and future Intel® processors.
Enhanced Memory & Storage Performance
AEMP III for Ultimate DDR5 Performance
ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile III (AEMP III) is an advanced firmware feature that empowers users to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory. Through a two-phase comprehensive tuning process, AEMP III first optimizes the clock driver and then the memory frequency. This results in the best balance between performance and stability, even at cutting-edge speeds of DDR5-7600 or higher.
DIMM Fit / DIMM Fit Pro
DIMM Fit is an ASUS-exclusive BIOS feature that precisely analyzes individual memory modules to optimize performance and pinpoint potential issues. DIMM Fit Pro gives advanced PC builders more extensive customizability for memory tuning. It allows users to control up to twenty overclocking parameters, define testing ranges, and prioritize stability or performance, offering a more flexible and granular approach to memory optimization.
Three M.2 slots (up to 128Gbps)
The B860M MAX GAMING AX offers a total of three M.2 slots, including one that supports data-transfer speeds of up to 128Gbps via PCIe 5.0, two that supports 64Gbps via PCIe 4.0. This enables quicker boot-up and app load times with OS or application drives.
Cooling
Cooler by design
The B860M MAX GAMING AX motherboard is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to help ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.
Cooling
Smart cooling precision
ASUS Fan Xpert 2+
ASUS Fan Xpert 2+ software provides comprehensive control over fans. An Auto-Tuning mode intelligently configures all parameters with a single click. There’s also an Extreme Quiet mode that reduces chassis fan speeds to below the default minimum to keep your system whisper-quiet when performing light tasks. Fans can also be controlled via the UEFI BIOS.
Cooler compatibility
ASUS AIO coolers offer robust performance, high overclocking potential, bold aesthetics and customizable functionality for new motherboards, empowering you to build your dream gaming rig.
Flexibility
Empowering connections
The B860M MAX GAMING AX motherboard offers a versatile range of connectivity, including support for WiFi 6, the latest version of PCI Express and an arsenal of USB ports which includes Type-C connections.
WiFi 6
The WiFi 6 module is compatible with the 802.11ax. Perhaps more importantly for users, it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic.
USB 20Gbps port
A batch of USB ports supports high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including a rear USB Type-C® port with transmission speeds of up to 20Gbps.
PCIe 5.0 slot
The latest processors introduce PCIe 5.0 support, doubling data transfer speeds compared to PCIe 4.0, enhancing signal integrity, and providing backward-compatible CEM connectors and support for previous PCIe versions.
