Motherboard for LGA 1151 Z270 builds

This ATX motherboard uses the Intel Z270 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket. It supports DDR4 memory up to 64GB. The board is aimed at builders assembling a system around a compatible Intel processor.

Check socket, chipset

Your processor must fit the LGA 1151 socket and work with the Z270 chipset. Installed memory must be DDR4. The unit arrives without original packaging and includes only the board, one SATA cable and the rear I/O shield.

Replaces a damaged or missing Z270 board

This unit serves as a direct swap for another Z270 LGA 1151 motherboard. The jump is worthwhile when the original board has failed or when a bare board is needed for a test bench. It is not for buyers who need a full accessory kit, original box or a newer chipset.
