Socket LGA 1150 Micro ATX motherboard

The ASUS B85M-D PLUS is a new Intel B85 board built for the LGA 1150 socket. It accepts DDR3 memory up to 16 GB in a compact Micro ATX layout. The package includes the board, a metal battery, one SATA cable and the rear I/O shield.

Builders limited to DDR3 and 16 GB capacity

This board suits repairs or upgrades on existing LGA 1150 systems where DDR3 is already in use. It will not suit buyers who need more than 16 GB of RAM, faster memory types, or a larger ATX form factor with extra expansion slots.

16 GB maximum memory decides the fit

The hard ceiling of 16 GB DDR3 is the single specification that determines whether this motherboard meets the build requirements. If the planned workload demands more memory, a different platform must be chosen.
