What types of CPUs does the ASUS TUF GAMING B660M-PLUS WIFI D4 support?

The ASUS TUF GAMING B660M-PLUS WIFI D4 supports 13th and 12th Gen Intel Core processors, as well as Pentium Gold and Celeron processors. Please note that a BIOS update may be required to boot the 13th Gen Intel Core processors.

Do I have to use the included Dual Band antenna for wi-fi or will it pick up a decent signal without the antenna?

I don't know if it will work without any antennas at all but I use little stubby antennas (about 1 1/2" long) and they work fine. May depend on distance/obstructions, of course. My main rig is hard-wired but the dining room one is about 5' from the router and it's fine.

Does this MB require a 12th gen CPU be installed to update bios for 13th gen Raptor Lake, yes or no?

Depends when the board was mfg. and the bios; I had to do so.
