Asus Trooper B150 D3 32GB DDR3 Motherboard

Best-value TUF B150 ATX board with military-grade components and cooling tech to guarantee 24/7 durability.

Trooper Series Design Story
All TUF. Durability Guaranteed.
TUF TROOPER series motherboards are pumped with pure TUF spirit, able to survive the most rigorous conditions under even heavy loading. To create TROOPER, our engineers focused on the TUF founding principles of durability that overcomes all. The result are motherboards designed tough and built to last, staying true to our mission to take reliability to the next level for the longest lifespan. You demand guaranteed quality that endures 24/7 durability – so demand TUF TROOPER series.

24/7 DURABILITY
You demand 24/7 durability, so we've delivered! TUF motherboards undergo the industry's most-punishing tests to ensure they're ready for permanent duty in all scenarios. In our development labs we heat them, chill them, bend them, shock them and drop them — so you know that your TUF motherboard is certified for 24/7 durability!

Shielded Power Signal
Effective shielding to minimize power-signal interference
A shielded trace path between our renowned Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) and the I/O ports greatly reduces power-signal interference — and that improves  the compatibility and reliability of connected devices.

TUF LANGuard
Exclusive military-grade LAN protection
Trooper B150 D3's TUF LANGuard socket has advanced signal-coupling technology and premium surface-mounted capacitors to improve throughput tested to military grade, TUF LANGuard is certified for tough duty to protect your motherboard from lightening strikes and static electricity.

TUF ESD Guards 2
2X Stronger ESD protection for extended component lifespan
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can happen suddenly, and its damaging effects are easily underestimated. TUF ESD Guards 2 technology raises the bar that are 2X higher than industry standards and exclusive pin-level on specific rear IO connectors* testing is 30% higher than previous TUF standard, ensuring electrostatic discharges are properly grounded from all onboard connectivity — and that means greater component longevity.

TUF Audio Design
TUF Audio Design makes short work of optimizing audio settings for the way you want to listen, chatting, watching movies or relaxing to your favorite music. Onboard physical shielding, professional engineered design and premium components result in sound output that has exceptional clarity and fidelity.

LED-lit Audio Shielding
Ensures precision analog/digital separation and greatly reduced multi-lateral interference, with a gorgeous illuminated trace path

Unique de-pop circuit
Reduces start-up popping noise to all audio outputs

Special layout design
Separate layers for left and right channels to guard the quality of the sensitive audio signals

Thermal Radar CORE
Complete system cooling. Customized fan tuning
ASUS TUF Thermal Radar Core enables complete system cooling management – quickly, easily and safely. Customizable controls allow you to adjust fan speeds, allowing the temperature to be tuned with just a single click. And talking of single-click simplicity, live update ensures that your Thermal Radar Core is never out of date – just click the button to check for updates.

Safe motherboard mounting
Component-free areas to minimize damage risk
Fitting your ASUS motherboard is now safer than ever. The comprehensive component-free ‘safe zones' around every case-mounting hole minimizes the risk of damage and short circuits caused by contact — so you'll assemble your PC with total confidence!

Q-Slot
Effortless PCI Express component removal
The large winged clip is easy to reach and easy to operate. Just press the Q-Slot clip lightly, and graphics card just pop out. Installing or removing even the biggest graphics cards is no sweat!

Q-DIMM
Easy memory removal
Even if you work with a smaller case, just push down on the one-sided clip and push or pull RAM modules in or out – couldn't be simpler!
