Comprehensive Connectivity

• An array of powerful I/O ports — including 2.5 Gb and 1 Gb Ethernet ports and three M.2 slots — enables quick data transfers and extensive storage options.

 

USB-C DisplayPort (DP Alt Mode)

• This USB Type-C® port delivers transfer speeds of up to 10 Gbps, and it supports an alternate mode that provides DisplayPort™ 1.4 output for up to 8K resolution at 60 Hz. This new feature gives creators premium-grade flexibility to choose between high-speed data or an additional hi-res display.

 

USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C® Front-Panel Connector with Quick Charge 4+

• A USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 connector boosts Type-C data transfers with speeds of up to 20 Gbps. The connector also features Quick Charge 4+ technology that can quickly charge devices up to 60 W with a PCIe power supply cable plugged into the nearby 6-pin connector.

Thunderbolt™ 4 Support

• PROART B660-CREATOR D4 features Thunderbolt™ 4 support via an on-board header. The ASUS ThunderboltEX 4 add-on card is certified by Intel and can enable bi-directional speeds of up to 40 Gbps on a single cable. Additionally, the card has a daisy-chain function for multiscreen connection and supports one display with up to 8K resolution . It can also provide up to 100 watts of power to fast-charge devices.

Ultrafast M.2 Transfer Speeds

• Three M.2 slots support PCIe 4.0 or 3.0 drives and provide NVMe® SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data transfer speeds.

M.2 Q-Latch

• The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools. The design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive, eliminating the need for screws.
• Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for internet and for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data organization and security.

2.5 Gb Ethernet

• The 2.5 Gb Ethernet port provides faster data transfers and smooth high-res video streaming.

Intel® 1Gb Ethernet

• The Intel I219-V Ethernet chip reduces CPU overhead and offers exceptionally high TCP and UDP throughput for faster, smoother data transfers.

M.2 Slot (Key E)

• PROART B660-CREATOR D4 features an M.2 slot (key E) which can support type 2230 WiFi/Bluetooth and Intel CNVi (integrated WiFi/BT) modules

Next-Gen Performance

• With tailored CPU power delivery and support for high-performance memory, PROART B660-CREATOR D4 easily handles the demands of the latest 12th Gen Intel Core processors. It features an intelligent VRM design that’s rated for 50 amps, plus carefully selected components and memory layout optimizations for multithreaded tasks such as 3D animation and video editing.

PCIe 5.0 READY

• The 12th Gen Intel processors bring PCIe 5.0 support to the market. PCIe 5.0 offers twice the data transfer speed of PCIe 4.0, making it robust enough to handle new data-heavy tasks. PCIe 5.0 also brings other benefits, such as improved signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and backward compatibility with previous PCIe versions.

DDR4 Memory

• PROART B660-CREATOR D4 supports up to 128 GB of DDR4 memory across four slots. ASUS-exclusive OptiMem II technology improves trace layout to significantly reduce signal distance and crosstalk, enhancing memory stability and compatibility while giving memory kits higher clock speed margins.

Optimized Cooling Design

• Maintaining system stability under heavy loads is of paramount importance, so PROART B660-CREATOR D4 features comprehensive cooling with large VRM and chipset heatsinks that strike the right balance between surface area and mass. Integrated premium components and multiple fan headers are also vital design elements that provide the best foundation for content creation systems.

Perfect for Content Creation

• PROART B660-CREATOR D4 exclusive software utilities deliver intuitive system monitoring, audio and networking enhancements that enable a smoother workflow.

INDUSTRY LEADING SECURITY

• ASUS Control Center Express software offers advanced security management functions to protect the system and confidential data.

PROART CREATOR HUB

• A user-friendly interface helps enhance workflows via a central system that allows monitoring and control of all connected ProArt products, including PROART B660-CREATOR D4 motherboard and displays.
• 1. Fan mode
  Select the preferred fan setting to quickly configure the system’s cooling performance.
• 2. Task grouping
  Applications that are frequently used together can be arranged into groups and launched with a single click.

CREATION FIRST

• The PROART B660-CREATOR D4’s CreationFirst optimization utility allows users to prioritize applications to allocate more bandwidth for essential apps and tasks.
• CreationFirst mode puts content-creation applications at the front of the queue, optimizing network traffic for more efficient workflows.
• Similarly, Adaptive Intelligence mode analyzes usage patterns and identifies applications that are currently in use, applying foreground acceleration to ensure smoother online experiences when multitasking.

TWO WAY AI NOISE CANCELATION

• As working from home becomes the new normal, clear online communication is more critical than ever. Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation is an audio utility that leverages a massive deep-learning database to reduce background noise from the microphone* and incoming audio. Distracting keyboard clatter, mouse clicks and other ambient noises are smartly pared back so users can hear and be heard with crystal clarity with PROART B660-CREATOR D4 motherboard.

Trusted Stability

• PROART B660-CREATOR D4 is engineered and rigorously tested to offer superior quality, stability and compatibility ― all to ensure that it empowers creativity for years to come.
