Socket LGA 1151 ATX motherboard

The ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING/AURA is an Intel Z170 motherboard built for LGA 1151 processors. It supports DDR4 memory up to 64GB in an ATX form factor. The board includes one SATA cable and a chassis I/O back panel in the package. It is sold new and ready for system assembly.

Builders using 6th or 7th generation Intel Core CPUs

This motherboard suits builders upgrading or repairing an existing LGA 1151 platform that uses DDR4 memory. It is not for buyers who need a newer CPU socket, a different chipset, or memory support beyond the 64GB limit. The single SATA cable provided may not cover builds with multiple storage drives.

64GB maximum DDR4 capacity

The decisive specification is the 64GB memory ceiling, which defines the total system RAM this board can address. Buyers planning heavier workloads should verify this limit before purchase. The Z170 chipset and LGA 1151 socket lock the platform to its original generation. No other accessories beyond the SATA cable and I/O shield are included.
