The ASUS PRIME B850M-A-CSM is a compact, micro ATX motherboard for AMD's AM5 socket Ryzen processors. It sacrifices some of the expansion capacity that a larger motherboard offers, but still supports up to 128GB of DDR5 memory and multiple SATA and M.2 drives. Two PCI-Express slots are also present, with one supporting full 5.0 x16 speed for a video card and the other at 4.0 x1 for small expansion cards.

For external connectivity, this board has basic analog audio outputs, 2.5Gb Ethernet, and eight USB Type-A ports of varying speeds. There are also HDMI, DisplayPort, and VGA outputs for use with the graphics built into AMD's Ryzen processors, though most users will want to add a dedicated video card for improved performance.

With no built-in WiFi or Bluetooth, this is a great motherboard option for users who need to comply with government or corporate limits on wireless connectivity.
