Powerful delivery and system stability
The motherboard uses an advanced power system with an 18+1+1+1+1 power phase configuration, equipped with Smart Power Stage technology and 80A SPS for VCore, GT, and SA. Each phase is fitted with 1000µF capacitors with a 20000-hour lifespan, which ensure higher energy storage, lower voltage ripple, and a more stable output current. The board is constructed with a two-ounce copper PCB layer for optimal signal conduction and more effective cooling, while the Hi-Density power connectors withstand higher currents and provide safer operation during extreme overclocking. The system supports Intel 200S Boost via a BIOS update, which delivers a significant performance increase for existing processors.
Advanced storage and memory options
The platform offers one Blazing M.2 slot supporting PCIe Gen5 x4 for ultra-fast SSDs with transfer speeds of up to 128Gb/s, three Hyper M.2 slots with PCIe Gen4 x4, and one universal M.2 slot compatible with both PCIe Gen4 x4 and SATA III. All M.2 slots are equipped with large aluminium heatsinks with a screwless installation system and bottom cooling surfaces for efficient heat dissipation directly through the PCB. The memory subsystem supports DDR5 modules with Intel XMP and AMD EXPO profiles for easy overclocking, while the proprietary Memory OC Shield technology minimises electromagnetic interference and increases stability at high frequencies.
Connectivity and expandability
The rear panel provides two Thunderbolt 4 ports with USB4 standard support and transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s for connecting external displays and high-speed devices, two USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports, four USB 3.2 Gen1 ports, and two USB 2.0 ports. Networking options include a Killer Ethernet E3100 with 2.5Gb/s speed and a prioritisation mechanism to optimise gaming traffic, complemented by an Intel Wi-Fi 7 module with Multi-link Operation technology for simultaneous use of multiple bands.

Choosing a motherboard
When choosing a motherboard (also known as a mainboard), it's important to pay particular attention to the motherboard's socket type, form factor, and chipset. These are the most crucial parameters, ensuring the board is compatible with the processor, expansion cards, and other components. The specific socket determines your choice of processor, while the remaining connectors dictate which other components you'll need for your future computer.Specifications
