This year, ASUS has laid out a series of heavy gunners in terms of motherboards，This is a new series based on the mid-range motherboard market，ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO heavy gunner motherboard is one of the new products，Has a powerful 8+1+1 power supply module、Fast 2.5G network card、Welcome to the future Type-C interface and other features，Beyond high-spec materials，The price is almost the same as the general B460 motherboard，Has a very high cost performance，This time we will review this motherboard，See how it works。
ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO heavy gunner series inherits the original tough guy style of TUF GAMING series，Still using black and green as the main body，embellished with yellow logo，This is the consistent style of TUF GAMING special forces，High recognition。For detailed parameters of ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO, please see the end of the article。
memory slot，ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO heavy gunner motherboard provides 4 DDR4 memory slots，Frequency up to 2933MHz，And equipped with ASUS exclusive OptiMem memory optimization technology，Can significantly improve memory overclocking headroom and stability。

Graphics card slot，This motherboard provides two PCIe long slots。One of them is equipped with metal protective armor，It can prevent accidental damage caused by the insertion and removal of the graphics card，And this slot is in X16 mode，Users who will only use one discrete graphics card are advised to insert the graphics card into this slot。
Surrounding the graphics card slot are two M.2 slots，The top one is directly connected to the CPU，And equipped with metal cooling armor。
Next, let's take a look at the I/O interface of the motherboard，This motherboard provides two USB 2.0 ports，4One USB 3.1Gen1 interface，One HDMI interface and one DP interface，In addition, there is a 2.5Gb Ethernet port and 5 conventional audio interfaces。And while the Asus B460 Heavy is a B460 mid-range motherboard，But ASUS still thoughtfully pre-installed an integrated IO backplane for it，Avoid missing during installation，Dust-proof and anti-static。
Now we will remove the armor of this motherboard，Take a look at the materials used for this motherboard，Because the armor has no light effect，Easy to disassemble。
The power supply of ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO heavy gunner is 8+1+1 phase，PWM master selected ASP19008，Customized for ASUS，The MOSFET is SIC630, which is a comprehensive Dr.MO that can output 50A current.，This configuration is very luxurious，On par with some Z490 motherboards。

ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO heavy gunner uses two heavy metal armors to ensure stable heat dissipation in the VRM area，There is also a thermal pad under the armor to help dissipate heat。
The network card chip is Realtek RTL8125，This is a 2.5Gb network card，Stronger than ordinary Gigabit NICs。B and this one also has，And equipped with TUF GAMING series exclusive TUF LANGuard network security protection and Turbo LAN technology，Guarantee the quality and stability of the network connection。
Finally, on the audio side，This motherboard uses Realtek S1200A high-quality audio chip，With 108dB SNR output and 103dB SNR，It is one of the top sound card chips。

The BIOS of TUF GAMING series motherboards has its own unique style，ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO Heavy Gunner motherboard is no exception，Inherited this concise and full-featured BIOS interface。
Asus' BIOS is as good as ever，Fully functional，Chinese graphical BIOS is also convenient for newbies to operate，You can do a BIOS update in the BIOS，Enable debugging such as XMP。
The Heavy Gunner series has been heard by everyone now，Known for high specification and high cost performance，ASUS TUF GAMINGB460M-PRO heavy gunner really showed us this this time too，With 2.5G network card、Technology such as Type-C interface，And the specifications of this motherboard are very good，Power supply has 8+1+1 phases，Not much worse than some Z490s，And its price is still the price of a B460 motherboard，Just $110，Really good value for money。
As a mid-range entry-level motherboard，ASUS TUF GAMINGB460M-PRO Heavy Gunner，Really good value for money，However, because the B460 chipset cannot be overclocked，Therefore, it is not recommended to use the processor with the suffix "K" and "KF" with this motherboard.，Instead, it is recommended to use the same non-overclocking tail mark "F" or the tenth generation Core processor without tail mark.，Mid-range entry can choose Core i5-10400F or Core i5-10600，At the high end, you can also consider a processor like the Core i5-10700F，You can buy according to your budget and needs。And it is precisely because the ASUS TUF GAMING B460M-PRO heavy gunner has good specifications and materials，So this time we can bring you so many choices.。
