M.2 (32 Gb/s).
Using four PCIe 3.0 lanes, the M.2 slot delivers data transfer speeds up to 32 Gb/s. It's ideal for connecting modern SSDs (up to 2280 form factor), significantly accelerating OS boot times and application launches.
USB 3.2 GEN 1 TYPE-A.
Gaming PCs typically require many peripheral devices, and this motherboard offers numerous USB ports, including a USB 3.2 Gen 1 connector for compatible cases.
FOR PC ENTHUSIASTS.
TUF Gaming series motherboards include everything needed to build an ideal gaming platform without unnecessary complexity, making system setup simple even for beginners. The TUF Gaming product ecosystem simplifies finding compatible components, and hardware adjustments are easily made via the intuitive Armoury Crate interface.
SafeSlot Core+.
SafeSlot Core+ is an ASUS-developed PCIe slot design featuring enhanced durability thanks to a solid stainless-steel retention bracket that protects the slot from damage. A metal shield is secured to the slot using mounting hooks, and the entire assembly is firmly anchored to the PCB with reinforced solder points, enabling support for heavy graphics cards.
ESD Guards Protection.
To protect against electrostatic discharge, ASUS uses a special circuit capable of withstanding up to 10 kV via air discharge and 6 kV via contact discharge (industrial standard is +/-6 kV and +/-4 kV respectively).
TUF LANGuard TECHNOLOGY.
The Ethernet port on this motherboard features TUF LANGuard, a special protection system against static electricity and voltage fluctuations.
Memory Overcurrent Protection.
To prevent overcurrent and short circuits, the motherboard includes built-in fuses that protect all device components, from peripheral connectors to memory slots.
Stainless Steel Backplate.
The backplate of TUF Gaming motherboards is made of stainless steel coated with a thin layer of chromium oxide, providing anti-corrosion properties. This ensures a long service life. TUF Gaming motherboards have successfully passed 72-hour salt fog testing, while other manufacturers' products typically last only 24 hours under the same conditions.
BIOS FlashBack.
Thanks to the exclusive BIOS FlashBack feature, users only need to download the latest UEFI BIOS version to a FAT32-formatted USB drive, connect power to the motherboard, insert the USB drive into the designated port, and press the BIOS FlashBack button. This feature does not require a CPU or memory modules.
Armoury Crate.
Armoury Crate is a unified control center for gaming devices. Its intuitive interface offers various settings for lighting (enabling visual effects and synchronization across compatible devices via Aura Sync), hardware personalization (e.g., keyboard and mouse), and cooling.
IMMERSIVE GAMING EXPERIENCE.
The TUF Gaming A520M-Plus WIFI motherboard is an excellent base for building a high-performance gaming PC, enhanced with features that improve gaming comfort: a high-speed network controller that minimizes online gaming latency and built-in RGB lighting that can be synchronized.
Wi-Fi 802.11ac.
The TUF GAMING A520M-PLUS WIFI motherboard features a dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11ac wireless module with a 1x1 antenna configuration, delivering data transfer speeds up to 433.3 Mbps.
Launch the game!
The ASUS Aura Sync system supports both external addressable LED strips and multiple Aura-enabled devices, enabling perfect synchronization of lighting effects through a single control center. With Aura Sync, you can create a true light symphony and make your PC's appearance truly unique!
Second-Generation Addressable LED Header.
The motherboard's addressable LED header supports detection of the number of LEDs on second-generation strips, allowing software to automatically configure lighting effects for specific devices. The new headers also maintain backward compatibility with existing Aura-enabled devices.
