After the success of the B760M-AYM WIFI motherboard, ASUS decided to up their game and release the B760M-AYM PRO WIFI, which does everything the previous one did but comes with better specifications.
On top of that, enthusiasts now have even more options to choose from when installing their Intel 14th, 13th, and 12th-generation processors, as this motherboard supports the Intel 700 chipset. The PRO and base model share the same form factor, that is, mATX, but we’ll highlight the difference between the two.
