SERVER-GRADE TESTS

Systematically-tested stability

TUF motherboards use military-certified components and undergo punishing burn-in tests, with temperatures of up to 55°C for 48 hours and at humidity levels as high as 90%! Every TUF motherboard is also subjected to extreme environment measurements and thermal-shock testing. Our motherboards are also tested with over 1,000 devices and undergo more than 7,000 hours of strict validation. With many whole-build server-grade stability tests also thrown at every board, you know that your TUF can be trusted in all conditions.

TUF LANGuard

Exclusive military-grade LAN protection

Trooper B85's TUF LANGuard socket has advanced signal-coupling technology and premium surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput tested to military grade, TUF LANGuard is certified for tough duty to protect your motherboard from lightening strikes and static electricity!

TUF ESD Guards 2

2X Stronger ESD protection for extended component lifespan

Electrostatic discharge ESD can happen suddenly, and its damaging effects are easily underestimated. TUF ESD Guards 2 technology raises the bar that are 2X higher than industry standards and exclusive pin-level on specific rear IO connectors testing is 30% higher than previous TUF standard, ensuring electrostatic discharges are properly grounded from all onboard connectivity — and that means greater component longevity.

Audio connectors

Capacitor protection on both front and back audio-output circuits.

LAN port

ESD TVS diode protection on the LAN circuit bolstered by an anti-surge LAN connector that increases protection against extreme events, such as lightning strikes.

D-Sub/DVI

Additional on-circuit ESD TVS diodes to protect D-Sub and DVI functionality.

USB3.0/2.0 connectors

On-circuit transient-voltage-suppression TVS diodes and capacitor protection for surface-mount and dual-inline packages.

Keyboard and mouse connectors

Additional on-circuit ESD TVS diodes.

TUF Audio Design

Superior LED-illuminated audio

TUF Audio Design makes short work of optimizing audio settings for the way you want to listen, chatting, watching movies or relaxing to your favorite music. Onboard physical shielding, professional engineered design and premium components result in sound output that has exceptional clarity and fidelity.

LED-lit Audio Shielding

Ensures precision analog/digital separation and greatly reduced multi-lateral interference, with a gorgeous illuminated trace path.

Unique de-pop circuit

Reduces start-up popping noise to all audio outputs.

Special layout design

Separate layers for left and right channels to guard the quality of the sensitive audio signals.

Cooling System

Thermal Radar Core

Complete system cooling, customized fan tuning

ASUS TUF Thermal Radar Core enables complete system cooling management – quickly, easily and safely. Customizable controls allow you to adjust fan speeds, allowing the temperature to be tuned with just a single click. And talking of single-click simplicity, live update ensures that your Thermal Radar Core is never out of date – just click the button to check for updates.

Intel CPU and chipset features

Trooper B85's Intel B85 Express heart is a single-chipset design that supports the very latest 4th-generation socket LGA1150 Intel Core™ i7, i5 and i3 processors. It also supports Pentium® and Celeron® CPUs. B85 Express uses serial point-to-point links to delivers superb performance with great bandwidth and stability. It natively supports up to four USB 3.0 ports for transfer rates that are up to ten times 10X faster transfer than USB 2.0. The B85 Express chipset also supports iGPU functionality, so you can enjoy the latest Intel integrated-graphics performance.
