Ready-to-Run Z390 Platform

This bundle pairs an ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING motherboard with an Intel Core i5-8400 processor and 64 GB of Avarum DDR4 2666 MHz memory in a four-module kit. The board uses the LGA 1151 socket and Z390 chipset to support 8th and 9th Generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs. It arrives as a matched set so builders can assemble a working system without sourcing parts separately.

Suits Single-Socket Desktop Builds

The combination targets enthusiasts and system integrators who want a pre-validated motherboard, CPU and memory package for a standard ATX chassis. It is not suited for buyers who need a bundled cooler, multi-processor capability or ECC memory support. The four populated DIMM slots leave no room for further memory expansion without removing modules.

Four-Module 64 GB DDR4 2666 Kit

Memory ships as four 16 GB UDIMMs running at 2666 MHz, filling every slot on the dual-channel controller. Maximum supported capacity is 128 GB, but reaching that figure requires replacing the installed kit with higher-density modules. The single specification that decides fit is the 2666 MHz DDR4 UDIMM format across four 288-pin slots.

Questions about this item

How do I install the CPU into the LGA 1151 socket on this motherboard?

Lift the retention arm, align the triangle on the Intel Core i5-8400 with the socket corner, place it gently without force, lower the arm and lock it. The step people miss is removing the plastic cover only after the CPU sits flat.

What maintenance or replacement will the 64GB DDR4 2666MHz memory need later?

The four 16GB UDIMM modules run at 2666 MHz with no ECC. Dust the slots annually; if a stick fails, replace it with another DDR4 2666MHz non-ECC UDIMM — maximum supported is 128GB across the four 288-pin slots.

What thermal limit appears first when the i5-8400 runs sustained loads without a cooler?

The combo ships with no cooler. Under continuous load the CPU will hit its thermal throttle point within seconds, forcing frequency down to protect itself. A compatible LGA 1151 cooler must be fitted before first power-on.
