Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your case accepts an E-ATX board and that your power supply provides the required CPU and mainboard connectors. Ensure your memory modules are DDR4 type and that the total installed capacity does not exceed 64GB. The unit is sold without original packaging; inspect the I/O shield fitment upon arrival.
