The back I/O panel features a USB Type-C port which delivers transfer speeds of up to 10 Gb/s, 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 high-resolution display.

A USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 connector boosts Type-C data transfers with speeds of up to 20 Gb/s. The connector also features Quick Charge 4+ technology that can quickly charge devices up to 60 W with a PCIe power supply cable into the nearby 6-pin connector.

The ProArt B660-Creator D4 features Thunderbolt 4 support via an on-board header. Thunderbolt 4 is capable of delivering up to 40 Gb/s bidirectional bandwidth, essential for resource-demanding peripherals. Thunderbolt 4 ports also support video output with 4K resolution for dual displays or 8K resolution for a single display.

Dual Ethernet ports provide fast data transfers simultaneously for internet and for local network-attached storage (NAS), allowing for improved data organization and security. The 2.5Gb Ethernet port provides faster data transfers and smooth high-resolution video streaming.

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. The innovative Q-Latch makes it easier to install or remove M.2 SSDs without the need for specific tools. The design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the d rive, eliminating the need for screws.

[4x 288-Pin] Well made, heavy heat sinks. Plenty of features like fast USB ports. 2.5 and 1 ghz ethernet. 3 M.2 SSD, plenty ARGB fan headers. Detailed online manual that helps explain PCI slots to cpus and chip set connections so you can place your M.2 drives in the correct location. This board takes time checking your RAM initailly, so best to start with one stick first and then add the rest once the MB determines how to use the memory. System very stable. Although still funs on DDR4 memory the system still benchmarks pretty fast. This MB is great for those not wanting to pay for the better top on the line creator board. This board still has plenty of yhe features the higher end board has. 5

[ATX] So far its great, everything works as advertised windows 11 is installed. 5

[LGA 1700] Priced under $200, Asus’ B660-Creator D4 is a solid budget board for creative professionals. It may not have all the bells and whistles of the Z690 version, but it’s less than half the pricef. If you’re looking to use the flexibility of the USB Type-C display option and don’t need integrated Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gbps) ports, this board should be on your shortlist. Pros +Budget ATX-size ‘professional’ board +Plenty of USB ports +USB Type-C DisplayPort capability +three M.2 sockets 5

[Clear CMOS] Great quality for a B-series board. I don't plan to overclock but got a K series CPU for the higher productivity/performance than non-K. Ordered used, and board came brand new in box with everything. Just missing adobe 3-month promo card but I already am an adobe subscriber so no problem. Main reason I chose this board is for its robust cooling design and 3 m.2 included heatsinks. I considered the B660 pro art but there seem to be complaints about flashing bios for 13th gen cpus, so I opted for the latest for better stability. Some nice haves: - Huge VRM good quality fins and 12+1 power phase easily cooled my stock i7 12700k running max load. - Has two M.2 slots running at full speed, and a third option for future expansions. Heatsinks even included with new thermal padding. - Beautiful VRM design and chipset. I like the power your imagination decal and the cool chipset design with pro art written on arcylic glass over a metal matte finish. - None of that crazy RGB - 2 LAN ports on I/O and lots of USB gen 3 options - Has a 2230 e-key slot where I installed Intel's AX211NGW card with BT 5.3 into it, worked perfectly. - ThunderboltEX4 header for future one cable video solution for my GPU - A reinforced PCIE 5.0 slot, future proofing - ProCool II power connectors further improving cooling solutions Great value for my workstation doing heavy tasks 5

[4x 288-Pin] Upgraded a bitcoin mining computer with an H510M-E board and i3 processor to the Pro Art and an i7 13700 to dive into a social media project with video editing. Easy board swap and now lightning fast with the Adobe suite of editing products. I already had Adobe, so did not take advantage of the package special. Installing a WD Black 4TB M2 this weekend along with upgrading ram to 64gb. Should be screaming fast with that addition. All of the board connections make sense. CPU power connection was challenging after installation of a Cooler Master Hyper 212 fan on the processor, I should have made that connection first. Overall an awesome board! 5

[LGA 1700] Excellent quality at a great price. This is my second ASUS motherboard. Its a Pro Art 660 with the features that I was looking for. Not a gamer, so I wasn't looking for the 'extras'. The two small issues that I have is the missing screw for the tiny Wi-Fi M.2 card. (I used a drop of super glue) shown in the picture. The other is the lack of a LARGE wiring diagram. The tiny text on the front panel support pins is very hard to see. Both issues combined do not warrant the loss of that fifth star. I would buy it again. 5
