The ASUS ROG STRIX B850-I GAMING WIFI is a compact, ITX motherboard for AMD's socket AM5 and Ryzen 7000 & 9000 Series processors. Its limited size means it has very little internal expansion capability, but it does have a full PCI-Express 5.0 x16 slot for a video card and two DDR5 DIMM slots for a total of up to 96GB of memory. Two M.2 drives are supported, along with two SATA ports and a few headers for front USB ports.
For external connectivity, this board has both analog and digital audio outputs, 2.5Gb Ethernet, WiFi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and eight USB ports of varying speeds (including two Type C). There is also an HDMI output for use with the graphics built into AMD's Ryzen processors, and one of the USB Type C ports can also output DisplayPort video.
