UPDATE AS OF 2024: This motherboard now supports Intel's 14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh" processors with a BIOS update available for download from ASUS's website! Check out the written review for this motherboard here: www.alktech.co/articles/review-asus-tuf-gaming-b760m-plus-wifi-d4-lga1700-motherboard
I have the ASUS B760-Plus WIFI D4 motherboard. My question is if the green Line Out audio jack gets damaged, how can one replace it and at what price cost?
Very informative video. Got this board on Black Friday($119.99 US) and pairing it with the i7-12700K($211.00 US) and the ASUS microATX P201 case...I know the 760 won't overclock, but the K - CPU was massively cheaper than the non-K at the time. Receiving the rest of my build parts today...kinda excited!!
Sounds like you've got a nice build on hand - what graphics card will you be using? I'd get the K version over the non-K in a heartbeat if the K's cheaper for sure!
@@ALKtech for right now I am going to use the the integrated CPU graphics. It's mainly going to be for music production so I am going to see how it performs in that realm before investing too much in a GPU.
@@musicturtletony8498 sounds good, since a GPU won't really be necessary in your use case. You could always look to the secondhand GPU market too if need be, to save that extra cash!
I just ordered the i5 - 13400F and I am leaning to this motherboard. I am just upgrading those two things and keeping my Red Devil 5700xt gpu. I am upgrading from a i7 - 6700K, so hopefully I can see major gains.
@@ALKtech currently i didnt have budget for a gpu, so I keep my 1070, but i think the 13500 can feed it better in newer titles like elden ring or hogwarts legacy. Im waiting for 4060ti, 4070, ot maybe will buying a 3070. Dunno yet
@@oldchannel8127Try to opt for the DDR5. Price difference is not that big and some games have massive gains due to the ram. Hardware Unboxed did a pretty good video on the 13500.
The B760 offering has a newer chipset, a better VRM setup and a slightly different PCIe slot configuration than the B660 board. If you already have the B660 board, there is no value at all in upgrading! Besides, the B660 board also supports Intel's latest 14th Gen processors..
That...is a really good observation. Never actually noticed that the 13600 doesn't really exist in the retail channel until now that you've mentioned it. Did some searching and came across some Reddit threads on users commenting how hard it is to find the 13600 too... Pure speculation on my end, seeing as there's lots of talk out there on the 13600 being an Alder Lake chip in disguise (especially given the amount of L2 cache the P and E cores have), perhaps Intel didn't have the intention of producing that many of them, in that the 13600 is based off an older design? Your guess would be as good as mine!
Does it have tpm which is necessary for win 11? I was comparing this with a board of same class from msi and they mention tpm header. Need some clarity on this.
You don't need a discrete TPM per se - modern processors (such as Intel's 12th/13th/14th Gen processors to be used with this B760M-PLUS motherboard) already include a firmware variant of TPM onboard. The TPM header is only if you'd like to get a dedicated TPM device for very specific use cases - if you're an average user intending to use your PC for gaming and normal productivity workloads, you won't need to purchase a separate TPM module just to be able to install Windows 11. Hope this clarifies!
I think this combo will do great - you might have to do some voltage tweaking to keep the 13600K's thermals in check with the AK620, at least from what I see on forums such as Reddit!
If you can help me to make a decision, I will be very grateful. I am going to build PC with Intel i5-13500 and would like to put a motherboard MSI Pro B760m-a because of the 2 DP and 2 HDMI ports /no one else offer this option/. My question is this MB has enough power delivery /VRM capability/ for i5-13500? And second - can be used with 2 HDMI 4k monitors and 1 DP 2k monitor simultaneously? If I understand correctly the other option is to put discrete VC in order to add additional HDMI port? Thank you very much in advance.
The MSI board will work just fine with the 13500 in terms of power delivery/VRM, so no worries there. That said, do you already have the intention of getting a discrete graphics card? If yes, why not just connect the monitors directly to the graphics card's display output ports? Most modern graphics cards of today have three to four display output ports, and should be capable of running the three monitors that you mentioned...unless your intention is to just use the onboard graphics of the 13500? Also, are you a productivity user (e.g. video editor who uses a multi-monitor setup)?
@@ALKtech No discrete card and no gaming - that's why I opted for MSI Pro B760m-a because of the 2 DP and 2 HDMI ports of that mobo - I would like to use it with 2 HDMI and 1 DP displ. simultaneously. No heavy video editing or whatever - just office use - a lot of docs, browsers and so on multitasking. I was told PRO serries is with subpar components and to choose something more robust like Mortar or Tomahawk. And thank you very much for the response!
@@dimitaryonchev1950 Got it. In theory, the MSI board should support the triple display outputs that you're looking at, using the 13500's integrated graphics. I've personally never used a multiple monitor setup on integrated graphics before, so I can't say with certainty that the MSI board will deliver on what you're looking for. You might want to see if your local retailer is able to test a multi-monitor configuration using the MSI board before you make a purchase, for a peace of mind! That said, the PRO series really isn't that bad - I've used a few boards for builds over the past two years or so, and they've all been good thus far.
Hi, i'm going to buy this motherboard and I wonder if I would have a problem installing the arctic freezer 34 esports duo cooler...The VRAM heatsink is long and I don't know if it might affect when installing it, could you help me?
While I haven't actually tested this for myself, I don't think you'll have issues with clearances installing the Arctic Freezer on this board - CPU cooler manufacturers tend to spec in enough clearance so as to cater to a variety of motherboard VRM heatsink designs!
I don't know if it is a defect with my board only, but the CPU socket spring was way too strong. I was worried I will break something simply trying to lock in the CPU. I am also getting thermal throttling at around at 4.8 GHz (instead of max 5.2) for 13700 with a 240mm AIO. I suspect it has something to do with with uneven pressure on the CPU. The VRAM heatsinks are also unnecessarily large that can interfere with CPU cooler installation.
The processor retention mechanism can be a bit fiddly to operate at times - is it more force than usual compared to other LGA1700 sockets, assuming you've handled other LGA1700 motherboards before? That said, there's some articles and videos out there regarding how the LGA1700's ILM causes warping which in turn affects the processor's thermal performance. If you have the budget for it, getting a contact frame from Thermal Grizzly, Thermalright etc might help things along..
@@ALKtech Thanks for your response. Last time I assembled a PC was intel 10th gen. Installed many others but all before that. So I cant compare with other 1700 boards but this was definitely much tighter than any of the others I had installed. I have already ordered the thermalright frame to replace the intel one after seeing those ILM videos. May be that will fix my heating issue.
@@KK-fi6ms I see. Would be interesting to know if the Thermalright does indeed bring about thermal performance improvements...hoping it works wonders in lowering the temps for your build!
Hey man, not at all! This is because the M.2 slots support the PCIe 4.0 standard and do not share the PCIe 5.0 lanes that are dedicated for the graphics card slot!
Hello, This model of the motherboard has 12 power inputs from the power supply device, should I use all of them or is the eight input cable enough for normally? Because my power supply has only eight power inputs for the motherboard, I have a lot of stress about not causing damage to my motherboard if using eight inputs, all my talk was about isus b760 tuf gamin plus wifi d4
If you're not using a power-hungry processor like an i7-13700K, i9-13900K etc, you can get by with just connecting the 8-pin CPU power connector and leaving the 4-pin connector alone. What processor are you using/intending to use with this board?
@ALKtech is 13500 will also be fine with 8 pin? also this mobo cant recognize my sata drivers as bootable drive. I already enable CSM in the BIOS. im wondering if i need to buy an nvme m.2 ssd.
Now I'm thinking of buying it. I will use it with I5 12400f และ rtx 4060 ti But I bought it for future use. In the case of upgrading CPU and RAM and various equipment I think this board might be suitable for me.
@@ALKtech I would like to ask a bit more. Suppose I want to overclock. I5 12400f ( BCLK ) This motherboard can be overclock ? Or does it have to be a B660 board with DDR5 RAM?
@@KINGCEOTV I haven't tried BCLK overclocking with a B760 board before, but having trawled some internet forums, it does appear that ASUS B760 boards might not be able to do BCLK overclocking successfully - it does appear that MSI B760 boards can do BCLK overclocking though...
A two-fan or even three-fan graphics card will fit, not to worry! This is because board manufacturers have to spec a certain amount of clearance to ensure maximum compatibility, given the modular nature of PC components!
I haven't tried this myself so I can't say for sure, but I suspect there should still be space to install an expansion card in the bottommost PCIe x16 slot. That said, depending on how wide your expansion card is, it may also get in the way of the front panel headers on the bottom edge of the board, especially if you're intending to install this motherboard in a compact mATX PC case...
What processor are you intending to use for your build, and will you be using your PC primarily for gaming? If budget is a concern, going DDR4 and getting some speedy low latency DDR4 kits will do just fine actually, especially since you're already looking at a more mid-range motherboard offering like this TUF Gaming!
@@ALKtech Mainly gaming. I plan to get I513500 and rtx4070ti but I'm stuck with DDR4 or DDR5 someone said that intel gen13 work better with DDR5 and i calculated total cost between Ddr4 board ram 3600Mhz and Ddr5 ram 5200Mhz It's cost 110usd more. so could you give me some tip? (This is my 3rd time buying new PC My last one was back in 2016)
Help! I bought this motherboard, and it won't fit with any of the CPU coolers I had. first try cryorig h7 then try dark rock pro 4 both have the same issue which is mounting socket cannot fit in. who knows what going on?
There should be a mounting backplate included with the coolers that you bought - you would usually have to install the backplate on to the motherboard as per the instructions manual, and thereafter mount the CPU cooler (with the processor already in the socket of course). Are you able to describe in greater detail the issue that you're facing with installation?
i heard that there are sometimes some issues with the bios because of the cpu so i wonder if my i7 12700kf would get a issue like that on this board. I would appreciate it if someone would help me out
What kinds of issues did you hear about? If you're talking about compatibility and stability, I'd think the 12700KF should work just fine, seeing as it's a last-gen processor after all!
You can give it a shot for sure - this board supports RAM speeds of up to DDR4 5333. Whether or not you can hit 3600 speeds on your DDR4 3200s will probably depend on the quality of the memory modules on the RAM sticks, among other things..
@@PuppetMasterdaath144 just manufacturer specifications for folks intending to further overclock their memory - no reason to go to such high speeds for DDR4 when 3600/4000 should do fine (if you're going down the DDR4 route for Alder Lake/Raptor Lake)!
Are you referring to the point I raised about the board not supporting WIFI 6E? If so, WIFI 6E is essentially a wireless standard for internet connectivity that is faster than WIFI 6. It just means that this board won't be able to support the speeds supported by a WIFI 6E-compliant router!
And that's actually a pretty good point to consider, especially seeing that Intel's been dragging its feet with the packet loss issues etc since the I225-V and even with the latest I226-V...
@@ALKtech Yeah it is glaring that it's an issue that has not been fully addressed. I heard that some had to resort to workarounds (e.g. limiting to 1G Duplex mode or something)
@@blackcyborg009 last I read about this topic was an article on Anandtech - seemed like Intel was recommending end users to disable Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) mode through Windows Device Manager to help reduce the likelihood of connection issues. It's funny when you consider that Intel's been making Ethernet chips for decades and they're been bumbling around with trying to fix this for way too long.
Currently planning my own build and I wanted to pair this motherboard with intel core i5 2600k with a Radeon rx 6600 would this be a good pairing anyone feel free to comment 🙏🏾
I'm assuming your processor is a 12600K, not a 2600K right? In any case, a 12600K+RX 6600 combo will work fine, though I'm curious what will you be using your PC for predominantly? Will you be gaming at say, 1080p?
@@assassinx-rated1440 thanks for sharing your specs! Do you game at 1080p? The RX 6600 isn't exactly a fast GPU, and realistically speaking you'd probably be looking at gaming at 1080p Medium/High settings for decent FPS.
@@ALKtech so what would you recommend? I heard some good things about the 6600 I just want to start out with a gpu this is my first pic build so I’m not looking to go all out but I am look for decent hardware I won’t have to upgrade for awhile
@@assassinx-rated1440 are you able to share the kinds of games/workload that you'll be using your PC with, and whether you might have a budget in mind? Would narrow down the type of GPU to recommend considerably!
@@deepakparashar2883 the PRIME Z790-A is a full-sized ATX board that uses DDR5, which will have an impact on the RAM and PC case that you can use. Also, the PRIME is a higher-end board that is much more pricey than the TUF Gaming in this video, factor in the cost of DDR5 and your overall build cost will go up for sure. Do you have a certain budget in mind for your PC build?
I assume you're comparing this to the MAG B760 Tomahawk WIFI DDR4? The Tomahawk comes in the ATX form factor, while the ASUS board in this video comes in the micro ATX form factor. That aside, both boards are otherwise quite similar, apart from the fact the MSI has a slightly better VRM setup. What processor are you intending to use with either of these boards?
@@Gforce577 go for the MSI then since it's the cheaper variant - you'll want to make sure that the MSI fits your PC case though, as like I mentioned, the ASUS board in this video is micro ATX while the MSI board is full-sized ATX!

There should be a mounting backplate included with the coolers that you bought - you would usually have to install the backplate on to the motherboard as per the instructions manual, and thereafter mount the CPU cooler (with the processor already in the socket of course). Are you able to describe in greater detail the issue that you're facing with installation?
@@ALKtech Oh, I realized the backplate is not compatible. I had to buy an upgrade kit. Thanks for the guidance.🙏
Is this ok with I5-13500 and 2080Ti Oc? Im not sure if its going to destroy the pcs performance.
This board will handle a 13500 and 2080 Ti just fine, not to worry. Just make sure you've got a decent CPU cooler and good airflow in your PC case!
@@ALKtech yeah, I thought Ive had issue with cooling, turned out my thermal paste was dry af. Thx.
So it's confirmed it works with the 12th Intel gen, like 12700k, for exemple?
Yes it'll work with 12th Gen processors for sure!
i heard that there are sometimes some issues with the bios because of the cpu so i wonder if my i7 12700kf would get a issue like that on this board. I would appreciate it if someone would help me out
What kinds of issues did you hear about? If you're talking about compatibility and stability, I'd think the 12700KF should work just fine, seeing as it's a last-gen processor after all!
Great video!!!
can i increase my RAM from 3200Mhz to 3600Mhz w this motherboard?
( 13600k )
You can give it a shot for sure - this board supports RAM speeds of up to DDR4 5333. Whether or not you can hit 3600 speeds on your DDR4 3200s will probably depend on the quality of the memory modules on the RAM sticks, among other things..
@@ALKtech DDR4 5333 doesn't make any logical sense whatsoever
@@PuppetMasterdaath144 just manufacturer specifications for folks intending to further overclock their memory - no reason to go to such high speeds for DDR4 when 3600/4000 should do fine (if you're going down the DDR4 route for Alder Lake/Raptor Lake)!
Im planning to pair this with Intel I3-13100F wont i have a problem with this pair?
This board will work well with a 13100F!
Could I set an XMP profile for 32GB of RAM to 3200Mhz?
Yup you should be able to, as long as you get RAM that supports that said DDR4 3200 XMP profile!
what is the wifi-6 input? does that mean u need a cap or sth?
Are you referring to the point I raised about the board not supporting WIFI 6E? If so, WIFI 6E is essentially a wireless standard for internet connectivity that is faster than WIFI 6. It just means that this board won't be able to support the speeds supported by a WIFI 6E-compliant router!
Would this board be good with 3060 rtx and i5-12600kf?
Yup it'll pair great with a 3060 and 12600KF!
can this board support overclock from K series cpu?.
Nope, B760 boards do not support overclocking. You'll need to get a Z690 or Z790 motherboard to overclock K-series processors!
Is the i5-12600k good with the mother board?
Yup a 12600K will work well with this board!
Imho, one advantage of B760 boards over Z790 boards is:
Realtek LAN > Intel 2.5G Lan (which still has network dropouts even to this day)
And that's actually a pretty good point to consider, especially seeing that Intel's been dragging its feet with the packet loss issues etc since the I225-V and even with the latest I226-V...
@@ALKtech Yeah it is glaring that it's an issue that has not been fully addressed.
I heard that some had to resort to workarounds (e.g. limiting to 1G Duplex mode or something)
@@blackcyborg009 last I read about this topic was an article on Anandtech - seemed like Intel was recommending end users to disable Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) mode through Windows Device Manager to help reduce the likelihood of connection issues. It's funny when you consider that Intel's been making Ethernet chips for decades and they're been bumbling around with trying to fix this for way too long.
Can I use an Graphics card with PCE Version 4.0 on this motherboard?
Yes you can!
@@ALKtechok thx
Can i use it with Intel 13700 ? Will it deliver full performance?
It should handle a 13700 just fine, make sure you've got a good CPU cooler!
@@ALKtech well if i slightly downgrade the mobo i mean if i take b660 same board Asus tuf gaming.. will it able to handle 13700 non K processor?
@@ALAMIN4000 the TUF Gaming B660 series of boards should handle a 13700 well too!
will this mb handle i5 13600kf pretty well?
Yup it'll handle a 13600KF just fine, just make sure you've got a good CPU cooler!
Lovely board 👌
What screwdriver are you using?
It's a Xiaomi Electric Precision Screwdriver!
Currently planning my own build and I wanted to pair this motherboard with intel core i5 2600k with a Radeon rx 6600 would this be a good pairing anyone feel free to comment 🙏🏾
I'm assuming your processor is a 12600K, not a 2600K right? In any case, a 12600K+RX 6600 combo will work fine, though I'm curious what will you be using your PC for predominantly? Will you be gaming at say, 1080p?
@@ALKtech yes sorry the 12600k and mostly for gaming/streaming
@@assassinx-rated1440 thanks for sharing your specs! Do you game at 1080p? The RX 6600 isn't exactly a fast GPU, and realistically speaking you'd probably be looking at gaming at 1080p Medium/High settings for decent FPS.
@@ALKtech so what would you recommend? I heard some good things about the 6600 I just want to start out with a gpu this is my first pic build so I’m not looking to go all out but I am look for decent hardware I won’t have to upgrade for awhile
@@assassinx-rated1440 are you able to share the kinds of games/workload that you'll be using your PC with, and whether you might have a budget in mind? Would narrow down the type of GPU to recommend considerably!
Is it suitable for i5 13600k?
Yeah this board should do just fine with a 13600K - as always gotta make sure you've got good airflow in your case and a good CPU cooler.
@@ALKtech should i go for asus prime z790 a ?
@@deepakparashar2883 the PRIME Z790-A is a full-sized ATX board that uses DDR5, which will have an impact on the RAM and PC case that you can use. Also, the PRIME is a higher-end board that is much more pricey than the TUF Gaming in this video, factor in the cost of DDR5 and your overall build cost will go up for sure. Do you have a certain budget in mind for your PC build?
What's better this one or tomahawk?
I assume you're comparing this to the MAG B760 Tomahawk WIFI DDR4? The Tomahawk comes in the ATX form factor, while the ASUS board in this video comes in the micro ATX form factor. That aside, both boards are otherwise quite similar, apart from the fact the MSI has a slightly better VRM setup. What processor are you intending to use with either of these boards?
@@ALKtech i5 13600kf
@@Gforce577 the 13600KF will work just fine with either board. Is there a price difference between the ASUS and MSI where you're from?
@@ALKtech yes asus more expensive if it just the same i just choose the cheaper one
@@Gforce577 go for the MSI then since it's the cheaper variant - you'll want to make sure that the MSI fits your PC case though, as like I mentioned, the ASUS board in this video is micro ATX while the MSI board is full-sized ATX!
hello, is this board support ddr5?
This board doesn't support DDR5 - there's a variant of it that does, and its called the TUF Gaming B760M-PLUS WIFI (without the D4).
I have to say, this is one ugly motherboard with orange and yellow military aesthetic.
