Socket LGA 1151 motherboard for 6th

The ASUS PRIME H270-PLUS is an ATX board built on the Intel H270 chipset and fits LGA 1151 processors including Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron. It targets system builders who need a stable platform for everyday computing and light content creation.

Four DDR4 slots with 64 GB ceiling

Four 288-pin DIMM sockets run dual-channel DDR4 at 2400 and 2133 MHz, giving 64 GB total capacity. That headroom covers multitasking, virtual machines and moderate creative workloads; beyond 64 GB the board cannot go.

Two M.2 sockets plus six SATA ports and legacy video

One M.2 slot supports x4 PCIe or SATA, the second runs x2 PCIe or SATA, both accepting 2242, 2260 and 2280 drives. Six SATA 6Gb/s ports add RAID 0, 1, 5, 10. Video outputs are HDMI 1.4b, DVI-D and RGB, driven by the CPU integrated graphics. Realtek ALC887 8-channel audio and RTL8111H gigabit LAN complete the I/O.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR4 2133 MHz modules run at their rated speed on the four 288-pin slots of this H270 board?

Yes, the board supports DDR4 2133 and 2400 MHz in dual-channel mode across all four slots, up to 64 GB total.

How can I confirm the integrated Intel HD Graphics is driving my monitor through the HDMI 1.4b port at 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz?

Connect the display to the HDMI port, boot with a supported CPU, and check the OS display settings or GPU-Z to verify the 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz mode is active.

Which cables and drives must I supply besides the motherboard, I/O shield, SATA cables and M.2 screws that come in the box?

You need a LGA 1151 CPU, DDR4 DIMMs, storage drives (SATA or M.2 2242/2260/2280), a PSU with 24-pin and 8-pin EPS connectors, and a case with ATX standoffs.
