R2,479.31

Built for AMD’s Best — Ready for What’s Next

The ASRock B650M PG Lightning is engineered to keep pace with AMD’s most powerful Ryzen processors — from the 7000 all the way through to the latest 9000 series. Whether you’re building your first serious gaming rig or upgrading to a next-gen platform, this board gives you a rock-solid AM5 foundation without locking you into yesterday’s tech.

DDR5 Speed That Refuses to Slow You Down

With support for up to 256GB of DDR5 memory running at speeds up to 7200+ MHz (OC), this motherboard keeps your system snappy whether you’re deep in a gaming session, editing video, or juggling a dozen browser tabs. XMP and EXPO profiles mean your high-speed RAM runs exactly as intended, right out of the box.

Storage That Moves at the Speed of Ambition

A PCIe Gen5 M.2 slot delivers blistering SSD speeds of up to 128 Gb/s, while additional Gen4 M.2 slots and four SATA3 ports give you the flexibility to build your ideal storage setup. Whether it’s your OS drive, game library, or creative project files — everything loads fast and stays organised.

Compact Form, Full-Size Ambitions

The Micro ATX form factor means the B650M PG Lightning slots neatly into compact and mid-tower cases without sacrificing the features you need. With 2.5G LAN, a full suite of USB ports, HDMI and DisplayPort outputs, and ASRock Polychrome SYNC RGB lighting, this board punches well above its size class.
