AI-Ready Intel Z890 Micro-ATX Bundle

This bundle pairs the ASUS PRIME Z890M-PLUS WIFI motherboard with an Intel Core Ultra 5 245K processor. The board uses the Intel Z890 chipset and LGA 1851 socket, built for Intel Core Ultra Series 2 CPUs. It delivers a 10+1+2+1 80A DrMOS power design on a 6-layer PCB with ProCool connectors. The micro-ATX form factor fits compact chassis while supporting advanced AI workloads.

Suits builders needing Wi-Fi 7 and PCIe 5.0 M.2

Integrated Wi-Fi 7 (802.11 be) and 2.5Gb LAN handle high-throughput networking. One PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot plus two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots give fast storage options. Six SATA 6Gb/s ports and a front USB 20Gbps Type-C with DP Alt Mode add connectivity. Buyers needing full-size ATX expansion slots or passive cooling for the 125W CPU should consider other platforms.

DDR5 memory support up to 8666 MT/s OC

Four 288-pin DDR5 slots run dual-channel up to 256 GB total. XMP and AEMP III profiles simplify high-frequency tuning. The Core Ultra 5 245K includes 24 MB L3 and 26 MB L2 cache with integrated Intel Graphics for display output. Memory speed capability is the key spec to verify against your kit.

Questions about this item

What size case and power connectors does the Micro-ATX board with LGA 1851 socket require?

The board uses the Micro-ATX form factor and needs ProCool power connectors for the 10+1+2+1 80A DrMOS power stages.

Which memory slots should I populate first when installing DDR5 modules on the four 288-pin slots?

Install modules in the primary dual-channel pair first, following the DIMM Fit guidance in the manual, to enable dual-channel memory architecture.

How many M.2 drives can I add later and which slots support PCIe 5.0 versus PCIe 4.0?

Three M.2 drives are supported — one slot runs at PCIe 5.0 and two slots run at PCIe 4.0.
