  EZ mode displays vital settings and stats and also offers guided wizards, drag-and-drop functionality, and one-click application of important settings - all to help you get your rig up and running in no time.
• Intuitive graphical fan control
  Fine-tune individual fan settings simply by dragging a curve with the mouse.
• Advanced cooling
  Prime B660 series are engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads.
• M.2 heatsink
  M.2 heatsink wards off throttling that can occur with M.2 storage during sustained transfers. The heatsink is held in place by captive screws.
• VRM heatsink and thermal pad
  VRM heatsink and thermal pad improve heat transfer from the MOSFETs and chokes for better cooling performance.
• Cooler by design
  Prime B660 series feature comprehensive cooling controls that are configurable via Fan Xpert 2+ software or via the UEFI BIOS.
• Multiple temperature sources
  Each header can dynamically reference three thermal sensors. Fan Xpert 2+ allows you to map the temperature of supported ASUS graphics cards to optimize cooling for GPU- and CPU-intensive tasks.
• Improved performance
  Prime B660 series are built to handle the additional cores and increased bandwidth of 13th and 12th generation Intel processors. ASUS B660 motherboards provide all the fundamentals to boost daily productivity, so your system will be ready for action with stable power, intuitive cooling and flexible transfer options.
• Robust power design
  Stable power is essential to extract every last bit of performance out of 13th and 12th generation Intel processors. PRIME B660M-A D4-CSM is geared to cater to the demands of these high-core-count CPUs.
• ProCool connector
  Proprietary connector augments the motherboard's link to the PSU with 8 pin connector that passes 12 volts of power directly to the processors. Each jack features solid pins that can handle more current than hollow-pin connectors.
• PCIe 4.0 slot
  Prime B660 motherboards are designed specifically for 13th & 12th Generation Intel Core CPUs and offer PCIe 4.0 connectivity for the advanced GPUs. The wide bandwidth and superfast transmission speeds allow you to create feature-rich builds that can handle high loads effortlessly.
• USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C
  Numerous USB ports support high-end rigs loaded with peripherals, including front USB Type-C connectors with fast USB 3.2 Gen 1 for transmission speeds of up to 5 Gbps.
• Outshine the competition
  A well-tuned enthusiast system deserves a matching aesthetic. ASUS Aura offers full RGB lighting control with a variety of functional presets for the built-in RGB LEDs as well as strips and devices connected to the onboard RGB headers - and it can all be synced with an ever-growing portfolio of Aura-capable hardware.
• Addressable Gen 2 headers
  Three addressable Gen 2 headers are capable of detecting the number of LEDs on second-gen addressable RGB devices, allowing the software to automatically tailor lighting effects to specific devices. The new headers also offer backward-compatibility with existing Aura RGB gear.
• Armoury Crate
  Armoury Crate is a software utility designed to give you centralized control of supported products. From a single intuitive interface, Armoury Crate allows you to easily customize RGB lighting and effects for every compatible device in your arsenal. The software also provides control of settings for an ever-growing number of ASUS products, including keyboard and mouse preferences. Armoury Crate even features dedicated product registration and news to help you stay in touch with the ASUS community.
• Q-LED core
  The Q-LED Core display produces light patterns by power LED during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) that can help users troubleshoot potential issues.
• SafeSlot Core+
  SafeSlot Core+ is the ASUS-exclusive PCIe slot fortified with a one-piece stainless-steel brace that shields the slot to protect it from damage. The metal cover is tightly secured to the slot with hooks, and the entire assembly is firmly anchored to the PCB with strengthened solder points to provide a secure foundation for heavyweight graphics cards.
• Pumped-up throughput higher surge tolerance
  ASUS LANGuard is a hardware-level network protection feature that integrates advanced signal-coupling technology and premium anti-EMI surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput and ensure a more reliable connection.
