LGA 1151 300 Series Micro-ATX Motherboard

This micro-ATX motherboard uses the Intel B360 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket limited to 300 series. It accepts 8th generation Intel Core processors and four DDR4 DIMMs up to 64 GB total. Dual-channel memory runs at 2666 2400 or 2133 MT/s depending on the CPU installed.

Builders Who Need 8th Gen Support Only

The board suits builders upgrading to an 8th generation Intel Core CPU on a compact micro-ATX form factor. It provides dual M.2 slots, six SATA 6 Gb/s ports and a single PCIe 3.0 x16 SafeSlot. Anyone requiring 6th or 7th generation CPU compatibility or more than one full-length PCIe x16 slot should choose a different platform.

Single PCIe 3.0 x16 SafeSlot

Only one PCIe 3.0 x16 SafeSlot operates at full x16 electrical width; the second x16-sized slot is wired for x4 mode. This constraint decides whether the board can host a single high-end graphics card or a multi-GPU configuration. The two M.2 sockets support 2242 2260 and 2280 drives in both SATA and PCIe 3.0 modes.
