Socket LGA 1151 Mini-ITX board

The ASUS Maximus VIII Impact is a new Mini-ITX motherboard built around the Intel Z170 chipset and LGA 1151 socket. It supports DDR4 memory up to a maximum capacity of 32GB. This compact form factor targets small-form-factor builds that need an Intel Z170 platform.

Builders who need more memory or extra expansion

This board suits builders assembling a compact system with a compatible LGA 1151 processor and 32GB or less of DDR4 memory. It is not suitable for users who require more than 32GB of system memory. Buyers needing multiple expansion cards or additional onboard connectors beyond the supplied SATA cable should look at larger form factors.

32GB DDR4 memory ceiling

The decisive specification is the 32GB maximum memory limit. If the planned build requires 32GB or less, the board meets that requirement. If the workload demands a higher memory capacity, this motherboard cannot meet that requirement and a different platform must be chosen.

Questions about this item

Will the Mini-ITX board fit a standard 170 mm case standoff pattern?

The board uses the Mini-ITX form factor, which follows the 170 mm square mounting layout, so it aligns with standard case standoffs for that size.

Does the LGA 1151 socket require a specific cooler mounting kit?

The LGA 1151 socket uses the standard Intel square mounting pattern; most current coolers include the correct brackets, but verify the kit lists LGA 1151 before installing.

What replacement does the included metal battery need and when?

The supplied metal battery maintains CMOS settings; replace it when the system loses time or BIOS configuration after being powered off.
