Your Powerhouse for Creativity
ProArt B660-Creator D4 is an enhanced motherboard designed for intensive content-creation workloads like 3D rendering and 4K/8K video editing. It unleashes the performance of 12th Gen Intel Core processors through robust power delivery and cooling design, and its comprehensive connectivity includes onboard 2.5 Gb and 1 Gb Ethernet, a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C front-panel connector with Quick Charge 4+, and DisplayPort via USB-C.
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 2x2 Type-C® Front-Panel Connector with Quick Charge 4+
A USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 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.
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.
Teamed power stages
12+1 power stages rated for 50 amps combine high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into a single package, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest 12th Gen Intel Core processors demand.
Digi+ Power Control
The ASUS Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) is one of the finest in the industry and ensures ultra-smooth power delivery to the CPU.
ProCool power connector
The ASUS ProCool socket is built to exacting specifications to ensure flush contact with PSU power lines, enabling lower impedance and better heat dissipation.
Chokes & capacitors
Premium alloy chokes and durable capacitors are engineered to resist extreme temperatures, providing a higher level of performance than the industry standard.
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.
VRM heatsinks
Two VRM heatsinks are placed above the MOSFETs and chokes to further increase surface area for heat dissipation.
Chipset heatsink
A dedicated chipset heatsink draws heat away to help ensure that temperatures stay within an optimal range.
M.2 heatsinks
Two M.2 heatsinks cover three M.2 slots to keep M.2 SSDs at the optimal operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability.
