LGA 1700 Z690 Micro ATX board

This Micro ATX motherboard uses the Intel Z690 chipset and an LGA 1700 socket for 12th and 13th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron processors. Dual mounting holes accept both LGA 1700 and LGA 1200 coolers. Four 288 pin DDR4 slots support dual channel memory up to 128 GB.

Installation notes

The board fits standard Micro ATX cases and uses common ATX power connectors. Memory installs in the four DDR4 slots; populate matched pairs for dual channel operation. CPU cooler brackets for LGA 1700 or LGA 1200 both align with the dual mounting holes. M.2 screws are small and easily dropped; keep a tray handy.

Capacity and headroom

The primary PCI Express 5.0 x16 slot and one M.2 slot run at PCIe 4.0 x4 with 12th Gen CPUs. A second PCIe 4.0 x16 slot operates at x4 and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots add expansion. Four SATA 6 Gb/s ports and three M.2 slots provide storage headroom. DDR4 overclocks scale to 5333 MT/s; beyond that the memory controller limits stability.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the ASUS PRIME Z690M-PLUS D4 is posting correctly after assembly?

Power on the system and watch for the BIOS splash screen or listen for a single beep; the board supports 12th and 13th Gen Intel Core processors in the LGA 1700 socket.

What comes in the box and which essential parts must I purchase separately for this Micro ATX board?

The motherboard includes SATA cables, I/O shield and documentation; you must buy a compatible LGA 1700 CPU, DDR4 memory modules, storage drives and a power supply separately.

Which DDR4 speed should I choose for the PRIME Z690M-PLUS D4 given its supported memory standards?

The board validates DDR4 up to 5333 MT/s overclocked and 3200 MT/s native; pick a kit rated 3200 or 3600 for stability, or a higher OC kit if you plan to tune voltages in BIOS.
