Micro ATX LGA 1151 DDR4 Platform

The ASUS Z170M-PLUS is a Micro ATX motherboard built on the Intel Z170 chipset for LGA 1151 processors. It supports 6th generation Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs with native DDR4 memory control. The board measures 24.4 by 22.7 centimetres and fits compact chassis designs.

Builders Needing Z170 Features In Small Form Factor

This board suits enthusiasts who want Z170 overclocking headroom and dual-channel DDR4 speeds up to 3466 MT/s in a Micro ATX layout. It provides one full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, a second x16 slot wired for x4 operation and two x1 slots for add-in cards. Buyers who require multiple full-bandwidth graphics slots or legacy PCI slots should look elsewhere.

64 GB Maximum DDR4 Capacity

Four DDR4 DIMM slots accept up to 64 GB of system memory across a wide range of overclocked frequencies from 2133 to 3466 MT/s. This ceiling determines whether the platform can handle large datasets or heavy multitasking workloads. Verify your module density and kit configuration against this limit before purchase.
