Socket LGA 1155 Micro ATX Board

The ASUS P8H61-M LX3 PLUS R2.0 is an Intel H61 motherboard built for LGA 1155 processors. It supports up to 16GB of DDR3 memory in a compact Micro ATX form factor. This new unit ships with an I/O shield and one SATA cable.

For LGA 1155 Upgrades Only

This board suits owners of compatible LGA 1155 CPUs who need a replacement H61 platform. It is not for buyers who want newer processor sockets or chipsets with native USB 3.0 or SATA 6Gbps support. It is not for builders who need more than 16GB of system memory.

16GB DDR3 Maximum Capacity

The hard limit is 16GB of DDR3 across the available slots. Exceeding this amount will not work regardless of module density. Verify your CPU and memory kit match this ceiling before purchase.
