Mini-ITX with PCIe 5.0
This component fits into even the smallest PC cases thanks to its 170×170mm dimensions. It offers the full functionality of classic large motherboards in a small package. The manufacturer has integrated one PCI Express 5.0 ×16 slot with a reinforced Steel Armor design. This construction protects the slot from physical damage by heavy graphics cards. This lets users build a space-saving PC without compromising on performance.
Power system for stable operation
Stable power distribution is handled by a power system with an 8+2+1 phase configuration. The system uses Smart Power Stages with a 110A current rating. The power delivery system supplies enough stable current for AMD Ryzen 7000, 8000, and 9000 series processors. The multi-layer PCB contains thickened copper for better electrical properties. The stable voltage helps to keep temperatures low even under high processor load.
Component cooling
An enlarged passive heatsink with an integrated fan is responsible for dissipating excess heat from the power delivery system. The active element helps maintain optimal operating temperatures for the MOSFETs. The Frozr Guard cooling system effectively reduces the temperature of critical parts of the board. The primary slot for a high-speed M.2 drive is protected by a Shield Frozr heatsink. Fans can be connected to three 4-pin connectors with speed control support.
Interface for modern storage
The motherboard carries a total of three slots for fast M.2 NVMe drives. One of these slots uses the PCIe 5.0 interface directly from the processor, while the remaining two operate on PCIe 4.0 via the chipset. The XPANDER expansion card adds further positions for installing storage devices. The card also includes two classic SATA III ports for connecting hard drives. Users can configure RAID arrays of type 0, 1, 5, and 10.
High-throughput network connection
Fast data transfer in the local network is ensured by an integrated 5Gb/s Ethernet port. Wireless internet connection is handled by a modern Wi-Fi 7 module with support for the 802.11be standard. The wireless module supports fast data transfers and a stable connection to the router. An integrated Bluetooth version 5.4 interface is available for connecting wireless peripherals. Network traffic is managed by the Realtek RTL8126 hardware controller.
Modern connectivity
The rear panel features two modern USB4 ports with transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s and video output support. There are also six external USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports for fast peripheral connection. The Realtek ALC4080 audio chip provides clear 8-channel audio output. Clear CMOS and Flash BIOS buttons on the rear shield make setup easy. The board also includes one programmable connector for connecting addressable RGB strips.

Choosing a motherboard
When choosing a motherboard (or mainboard), it is important to pay particular attention to the motherboard's socket type, format, and chipset. These parameters are among the most important and ensure the board's compatibility with the processor, expansion cards, and other components. The specific socket determines your choice of a suitable processor, while the remaining connectors dictate the other components you will need for your future computer.Specifications
